Install FrameThrower in your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and others).
Repository: https://github.com/framethrower-ai/framethrower-mcp
Follow the installation instructions in the repository README, then restart your MCP client.
Film references, inside your agent.Connect any MCP client to a cinematography reference library of5,489 films, indexed frame by frame on lighting, lens character, shot size, colour and mood.
Ask for a look in conversation and the agent comes back with real frames, credited to their film, director and cinematographer.
Remote server, OAuth 2.1,four tools,no rate limits,$2 of credits free on signup(no card).

Bridge withmcp-remote, which handles the OAuth flow for you:

Full per-client steps indocs/install.md.
The server sends usage instructions on connect, so a client doesn't need to be told how to behave. The loop it asks for:
- Search— the agent callssearch_frameswith what you described.
- Show a few— about four, each with film, director and a link. Not a dump.
- React— "more like #2", "colder", "tighter". That becomes afind_similaron that frame, or afind_by_craftwith attributes adjusted.
- Repeatuntil it's right.
Every result keeps a link back to FrameThrower, because inline image rendering in chat is unreliable and the gallery is where the frames look like themselves.
Seeexamples/prompts.mdfor conversations that work.
$2 of credits free on signup, no card.Then $1 = 1,000 credits, and each tool call costs 2 — so$1 covers 500 calls. Credits never expire. There areno rate limits.
Run out and the tool replies with a message saying so, including your balance and where to top up, so the agent can explain itself rather than failing silently.
What it returns — and what it doesn't
Tools return metadata, a thumbnail URL, colour palettes and a deep link back to FrameThrower.Never raw image bytes.
This is a discovery and reference tool, not an image-delivery pipe. The frames are not ours to license — they are shown at reduced resolution as references for commentary, education and study, and rights remain with their owners. Seeintended use.
The FrameThrower MCP server isremote and hosted— you connect to it, you don't run it. So this repo is the connector: manifests, per-client setup, tool signatures and worked examples. Nothing to install, nothing to keep running, and no API key to manage — OAuth means the agent acts as your signed-in FrameThrower account.
