Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
Nova Reel Video McpCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
Install via Docker (pre‑built images) or locally with pip install -e . or uvx. Configure AWS credentials and an S3 bucket as environment variables or CLI arguments. Add the server to your MCP client configuration (e.g., Cline or Claude Desktop) or run the SSE/HTTP Streaming version as a standalone web server. Use the four tools: start_async_invoke, list_async_invokes, get_async_invoke, and get_prompting_guide.
Claude Desktop / Cursor
Paste into your MCP client config file to install this server.

Installation
Prerequisites
- Python 3.8+
- AWS Account with Bedrock access
- S3 bucket for video output
- AWS credentials with appropriate permissions
Local Installation
1. Clone or download the server files
2. Install dependencies:
pip install -e .
Docker Installation
Using Pre-built Images (Recommended)
Pull multi-architecture images from GitHub Container Registry:
# STDIO version
docker pull ghcr.io/mirecekd/novareel-mcp:latest-stdio
SSE version
docker pull ghcr.io/mirecekd/novareel-mcp:latest-sse
HTTP Streaming version
docker pull ghcr.io/mirecekd/novareel-mcp:latest-http
Building Locally
1. Build containers using provided scripts:
# Build all versions
./build-all.sh
Or build individual versions
./build-stdio.sh # STDIO version
./build-sse.sh # SSE version
./build-http.sh # HTTP Streaming version
2. Or use docker-compose:
docker-compose up -d
3. Or use the quick start script:
# Build all images
./start.sh build
Build specific version
./start.sh build-stdio
./start.sh build-sse
./start.sh build-http
Configuration
Environment Variables
- AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: Your AWS access key ID
- AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: Your AWS secret access key
- AWS_REGION: AWS region (default: us-east-1)
- S3_BUCKET: S3 bucket name for video output
.env File Example
Create a .env file for docker-compose:
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY
AWS_REGION=us-east-1
S3_BUCKET=my-video-generation-bucket

Docker execution
docker run -p 8001:8001 -e AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=YOUR_KEY -e AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=YOUR_SECRET -e S3_BUCKET=YOUR_BUCKET ghcr.io/mirecekd/novareel-mcp:latest-http

Output files will be in dist/
Example Usage
Basic Video Generation
# Start a video generation job
result = start_async_invoke(
prompt="A majestic eagle soars over a mountain valley, camera tracking its flight as it circles above a pristine lake",
duration_seconds=24,
fps=24,
dimension="1920x1080"
)

print(f"Started job: {job_id}")
Check job status
status = get_async_invoke(job_id)
