LeClap runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 316 installs a week from npm. Last commit 2 Nov 2026.
Compose and render video from one JSON template. Deterministic, runs locally, no generative model.

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.
exec(args: string[]): Promise<void>;
return path.join(this.assetsDir, dir);
Found in continuous integration, deployment or infrastructure files, or in a neighbouring package of the same monorepo. None of this is installed when you add the server: it describes how the project is built and released. We list it because a leaked key in a build pipeline is still a real problem, but it is not something this server does on your machine.

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.
We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above:
LECLAP_MCP_OUTPUT_DIR (Directory rendered videos are written to. Defaults to ~/.leclap/renders), LECLAP_MCP_MEDIA_DIR (Allowlisted directory the server may read source media from. Defaults to ~/.leclap/media), LECLAP_MCP_RENDER_TIMEOUT_MS (Per-render timeout in milliseconds. Defaults to 600000), LECLAP_MCP_ALLOW_REMOTION (Opt in to the Remotion clip renderer, which executes local JavaScript. Off by default), LECLAP_MCP_REMOTION_ENTRY (Path to a Remotion entry point used by render_remotion_clip when it is enabled).
