Best Nuke MCP Servers
Nuke is a compositing software for visual effects and post-production, developed by Foundry. It's a powerful tool used by artists and studios for creating high-quality digital content in film, television, and advertising.
Why this server?
Provides tools for interacting with Foundry Nuke compositing software, enabling AI agents to read comps, build comp-domain primitives (AOV, deep, distortion, tracking), manage color spaces, run long jobs as tasks, and more.
AlicenseBqualityDmaintenanceA production-grade MCP server for Foundry Nuke that enables AI assistants to understand and manipulate compositing environments, including AOVs, deep workflows, distortion, tracking, OCIO/ACEScct, and CopyCat ML.45MITWhy this server?
Enables AI agents to inspect and drive a running Nuke application's Qt-based UI: find widgets by meaning, take screenshots, record GIFs, click/type/press keys, inspect widget trees and properties, and route requests to multiple running Nuke instances.
AlicenseBqualityAmaintenanceEnables an AI agent to find, screenshot, GIF-record and drive Qt widgets inside running Qt applications and DCCs such as Houdini, Blender, Maya and Nuke, working across PySide6, PyQt6, PySide2 and PyQt5. It routes one agent connection to many applications at once, offering semantic widget search, widget-tree inspection, clicking/typing, and per-window or per-panel captures.301Apache 2.0Why this server?
Provides tools for parsing Foundry Nuke `.nk` compositing scripts into JSON AST (extracting nodes, properties, DAG wiring, and TCL expressions) and generating `.nk` scripts from JSON AST with round-trip stability.
AlicenseNot gradedqualityCmaintenanceParses and generates Nuke (.nk), MaterialX (.mtlx), and USD ASCII (.usda) files via JSON AST representations with round-trip stability. Enables bidirectional conversion of VFX script formats for pipeline automation without modifying files.6 npm3MITWhy this server?
Enables AI agents to create and manage WebView windows within Nuke, allowing embedding of web-based UIs and bidirectional communication with the compositing environment.
AlicenseNot gradedqualityBmaintenanceEnables AI agents to manage and interact with WebViews in DCC applications through tools like screenshot, load URL, eval JS, and event streaming via the Model Context Protocol.47MITWhy this server?
Integrates with Foundry's Nuke compositing software, allowing AI assistants to control a running Nuke session: create, modify, and connect nodes, render frames, manage projects, and use advanced features like tracking, 3D, and deep compositing.
Why this server?
Provides tools for reading and editing Foundry Nuke Studio/Hiero 17 projects, including bins, clips, sequences, tracks, shots, tags, soft effects, exports, and UI controls in a running Hiero session.
FlicenseCqualityBmaintenanceEnables MCP-capable agents to inspect and modify projects, bins, sequences, tracks, shots, tags, soft effects, and exports in a running Foundry Hiero / Nuke Studio 17 session.45-
