Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Motion Text every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Available tools 3

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

spec
get_spec
Machine-readable capabilities, limits, draft schema, and integration endpoints.
story
create_story_draft
Create a complete, editable lyric-video or story-video draft and get back an edit link for the user. Prefer script mode (one beat per line) unless exact timings are known. Drafts expire after 30 days unless the user saves them. Most ads use one or two effects for the whole piece. fade, rise and pop read as professional; scatter, slam and glitch read as novelty and get tiring past a line or two. Vary the type SIZE and the vertical POSITION between lines rather than the effect — that is what makes a piece look composed rather than captioned.
visual
list_visual_presets
Complete looks (treatment, typography, colors, motion) that can style a draft.

Motion Text — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Motion Text do?
It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: create_story_draft, get_spec, list_visual_presets. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Motion Text working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 463 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Motion Text?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Motion Text need an API key?
No. Motion Text completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 3 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Motion Text?
It answers our handshake in 463 ms on average, which is faster than 27% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
