Creatify's official remote MCP endpoint is:
https://api.creatify.ai/mcpWhat it adds
- Video-ad orchestration from a brief or product URL
- Product extraction and brand context
- Shared brand decisions across supported runtimes
- Workspace skill publication
- Asynchronous task polling and finished-video downloads
Codex plugin in this repository
The repository includes plugins/creatify-codex-production-suite with:
- Official remote MCP declaration
- A production-routing skill
- Browser-control reference
- SEO and GEO video brief
- Cost, publishing, healthcare, and QA gates
Existing Merlino skill inventory
The canonical ecosystem currently contains seven Creatify skill folders:
| Skill | Current role |
|---|---|
creatify | Broad Creatify reference and routing |
creatify-api | Deterministic API operations |
creatify-agent-browser-production | Authenticated Agent and browser work |
creatify-custom-avatar | Custom-avatar production |
creatify-custom-templates | Placeholder only, not an operational production skill |
creatify-production | Production standards and delivery |
creatify-video-pipeline | Video pipeline orchestration |
Only four of those folders were present on the active Codex runtime shelf during the 2026-07-31 audit. The plugin skill in this repository supplies the verified browser, MCP, SEO and GEO, editor, cost-gate, and QA guidance without pretending the placeholder is production-ready.
Authentication
Install the plugin, connect the Creatify MCP, and authenticate interactively with the Creatify account. Do not store credentials in the repository or plugin manifest.
Creatify browser authentication and Creatify MCP authentication are separate sessions:
- A logged-in Creatify tab proves the browser session is authenticated.
codex mcp listmust independently show the Creatify connector as logged in before MCP tools are considered operational.- Do not report the browser as logged out merely because MCP OAuth is incomplete.
Codex browser plugin
The authenticated in-app browser lane requires the bundled Codex browser plugin to be enabled:
codex plugin add browser@openai-bundled --jsonVerify the plugin reports installed, enabled in codex plugin list. A task that started before the plugin was enabled may still have an empty browser-tool inventory. Start a new Codex task or reload local Codex plugins so the task receives the browser controls. This reload does not log out of Creatify or reset any Creatify project.
Verification
The connection is operational only after Creatify tools appear and a read-only call succeeds. If the MCP is unavailable, use the authenticated browser for visual work and the documented API for approved deterministic jobs.
App boundary
A Codex .app.json entry requires a real allocated connector or app identifier. This repository does not invent one. The plugin supplies the official MCP declaration now, and an app manifest can be added after Creatify or Codex issues the connector identifier.
