Mediawork MCP server

Read-only Model Context Protocol access to everything Mediawork publishes publicly: the directory of post-production and distribution vendors, the FAQ, the blog, and subscription plans.

Connector URL: https://mcp.mediawork.io/mcp — Streamable HTTP, no authentication, no sign-up.

Listed in the official MCP Registry as io.mediawork/mediawork.

Tools

search + fetch are the generic pair some clients require; the dedicated tools give richer, filterable results where a client can use them.

Directory questions usually chain: list_services or list_places to resolve a filter, then search_facilities, then get_facility. Every result carries its canonical www.mediawork.io URL so an agent can cite the source.

Read-only, structurally

The deployment holds exactly one environment variable, APP_API_URL, and every byte it serves comes from https://app.mediawork.io/api/www/* — the same public contract the marketing site consumes. There are no database credentials and no write path, so "read-only" is a property of the deployment's shape rather than a promise in a comment.

Develop

The Next.js app is in deploy/. Conventions and the traps worth knowing are in AGENTS.md.

cd deploy
nvm use 24
pnpm install
pnpm dev            # http://localhost:3004/mcp
pnpm check          # types + lint
pnpm test:unit      # Vitest — pure logic, no network
pnpm test           # Playwright smoke spec against a real MCP client
