About Makernice

Makernice is a plugin that connects agents to a remote service for generating AI videos and images. It supports several named models and includes skills for pricing, generation, and retrieving results.

Key features

  1. 01Generate videos with Seedance, Kling, Wan, and MiniMax
  2. 02Generate images with Seedream and Qwen
  3. 03Estimate job costs before generation
  4. 04Check and cancel generation jobs
  5. 05Plan models and settings for a budget

Use cases

  1. 01Create product and e-commerce clips
  2. 02Make videos from photos using trend templates
  3. 03Compare model and output options against a budget

MCP support

The plugin connects agents to Makernice's remote MCP server over HTTP. The server exposes tools for model listing, cost estimates, generation, job status and cancellation, trends, and account balance.

Configuration

Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

From the project README

Makernice plugin

Generate Seedance, Kling, Wan and MiniMax videos and Seedream and Qwen images with Makernice from Claude Code and other agents. The plugin connects your agent to the Makernice remote MCP server and adds four skills that guide the agent through pricing, generating and fetching results.

What it calls

  • Remote service: https://mcp.makernice.com/mcp (MCP over HTTP), run by Makernice. Your prompts, the image links you provide and the job parameters are sent to Makernice to price and run generation jobs. See the privacy policy and terms.
  • No other services. The plugin contains no code that runs on your machine; it only holds the server address and the skill instructions.
  • Connecting: the first time you use it, approve the connection on the Makernice page that opens in your browser (in Claude Code, run /mcp and choose makernice). Nothing about your Makernice account is stored in this repository.

Pricing

  • Prices are in USD and are deducted from your prepaid Makernice balance. The live price list is at makernice.com/pricing.
  • Every job is priced before it runs. The agent shows you the price, and the job is refused if the price is higher than the cap you approved (max_cost_usd).
  • Failed jobs are not charged: the held amount is released in full. Queued jobs can be canceled for a full release. If a finished output is blocked by output moderation for a policy violation, the job is still charged; you can contact support for a manual review. See failed generations.
  • Each connection has a per-job limit and the account has a daily limit, both shown by get_balance.

Skills

SkillUse it for
makernice-setupCheck the connection, balance and limits, and make a first low-cost test video.
product-videoProduct and e-commerce clips: mode, prompt writing, aspect ratio and resolution.
trend-remixTurn your photos into a video with a trend template.
cost-plannerPlan models, resolutions and durations that fit a budget, without generating anything.

Tools provided by the server

list_models, estimate_cost, generate, check_job, cancel_job, list_trends, get_balance, get_topup_link.

Install

Claude Code:

/plugin marketplace add makernice/makernice-plugin
/plugin install makernice@makernice

Cursor: copy this repository to ~/.cursor/plugins/local/makernice/, then run Developer: Reload Window.

Gemini CLI:

gemini extensions install https://github.com/makernice/makernice-plugin

Hermes Agent: install and enable the plugin, then add the server to ~/.hermes/config.yaml with auth: oauth so Hermes connects your Makernice account through the browser. The browser step uses a localhost callback, so run it on the machine where your browser is.

hermes plugins install makernice
hermes plugins enable makernice
mcp_servers:
  makernice:
    url: "https://mcp.makernice.com/mcp"
    auth: oauth

LobeHub: add Makernice from the LobeHub MCP market.

Skills only, for other agents:

npx skills add makernice/makernice-plugin

The skills need the Makernice MCP server. If your agent does not install it from .mcp.json, add https://mcp.makernice.com/mcp as a remote MCP server in its settings.

New to MCP?

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
