Go to Claude > Settings > Developer > Edit Config > claude_desktop_config.json to include the following:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "flyworks": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "flyworks-mcp",
        "-y"
      ],
      "env": {
        "FLYWORKS_API_TOKEN": "your_api_token_here",
        "FLYWORKS_API_BASE_URL": "https://hfw-api.hifly.cc/api/v2/hifly",
        "FLYWORKS_MCP_BASE_PATH": "/path/to/your/output/directory"
      }
    }
  }
}

Using in Cursor

Go to Cursor -> Preferences -> Cursor Settings -> MCP -> Add new global MCP Server to add above config.

Make sure to replace your_api_token_here with your actual API token, and update the FLYWORKS_MCP_BASE_PATH to a valid directory on your system where output files will be saved.

Note: We offer free trial access to our tool with the token 2aeda3bcefac46a3. However, please be aware that the daily quota for this free access is limited. Additionally, the generated videos will be watermarked and restricted to a duration of 45 seconds. For full access, please contact us at bd@flyworks.ai to acquire your token.

Installing via Smithery

To install flyworks-mcp for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install @Flyworks-AI/flyworks-mcp --client claude

Install locally

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/flyworks-mcp.git
   cd flyworks-mcp
   

2. Install dependencies:

   pip install httpx "mcp[cli]>=1.6.0"
   

   Or using uv:

   uv pip install httpx "mcp[cli]>=1.6.0"
   

   To avoid timeout issues during server startup, we recommend pre-installing all dependencies:

   pip install pygments pydantic-core httpx "mcp[cli]>=1.6.0"
   

3. Configuration

Set your Flyworks API token as an environment variable:

# Linux/macOS
export FLYWORKS_API_TOKEN="your_token_here"

# Windows (Command Prompt)
set FLYWORKS_API_TOKEN=your_token_here

# Windows (PowerShell)
$env:FLYWORKS_API_TOKEN="your_token_here"

Alternatively, you can create a .env file.

4. Running the Server

Run the server.py file directly:

python server.py

spawn uvx ENOENT issue:

Please confirm its absolute path by running this command in your terminal:

which uvx

Once you obtain the absolute path (e.g., /usr/local/bin/uvx), update your configuration to use that path (e.g., "command": "/usr/local/bin/uvx").

Notes

• Job processing may take some time, please be patient
• Video file URLs are temporary, please download and save them promptly
• When using local files, the server will automatically upload them to Flyworks servers
• In sync mode, the tool will wait for the task to complete and automatically download the video
• Maximum allowed wait time for sync mode is 10 minutes (600 seconds)
• Avatar creation through videos usually provides better quality but takes longer
• For quick testing, avatar creation through images is faster but may have lower quality
