Mediawork tools (10, 1 write)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsfetchFreeRetrieve the full contents of one record by the `id` returned from `search`.
get_blog_postwrite actionFreeThe full body of one published blog post, as markdown.
get_facilityFreeThe full public profile for one vendor: services offered, creatives on the team and what each of them does, production types, rooms and spaces, and addresses. Takes the `companySlug` and `facilitySlug` pair returned by search_facilities.
get_plansFreeMediawork's subscription plans: what each includes, and its prices. Prices are published in several currencies — pass `currency` to return just one.
list_blog_postsFreePublished posts from the Mediawork blog, newest first. Use get_blog_post with a returned `slug` to read one in full.
list_placesFreeCities, states and countries that have at least one vendor listed, with a count of how many. Use a place `slug` as the `place` argument to search_facilities.
list_servicesFreeThe service categories vendors on Mediawork offer, such as Editorial, Sound Post or Visual Effects. Each has a uuid — pass it as `service` to search_facilities to filter the directory to vendors offering that service. Call this first when a question is about a kind of work.
searchFreeSearch everything Mediawork publishes — vendor directory listings, FAQ entries and blog posts — and return matching records as {id, title, url}. Pass an `id` to `fetch` to read one in full. If your client supports them, the dedicated tools (search_facilities, search_faq, …) give richer, filterable results.
search_facilitiesFreeSearch publicly listed post-production facilities, distribution vendors and creative companies. Filter by free text, by place slug (from list_places) and by service uuid (from list_services). To find vendors somewhere, prefer `place`; a `query` naming a place is treated as one anyway, and the response reports it as `resolvedPlace`. Results are paginated; when `hasMore` is true, call again with the returned `nextOffset`.
search_faqFreeMediawork's published FAQ, grouped by category. With a query, returns matching questions and their answers; without one, returns every question so you can pick which to search for.

What the publisher says
From the Mediawork repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
Mediawork MCP server
Read-only Model Context Protocol access to everything Mediawork publishes publicly: the directory of post-production and distribution vendors, the FAQ, the blog, and subscription plans.
Connector URL: https://mcp.mediawork.io/mcp — Streamable HTTP, no authentication, no sign-up.
Listed in the official MCP Registry as io.mediawork/mediawork.
Connect it
Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http mediawork https://mcp.mediawork.io/mcpAnything that takes a JSON config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"mediawork": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.mediawork.io/mcp"
}
}
}Tools
search + fetch are the generic pair some clients require; the dedicated tools give richer, filterable results where a client can use them.
Directory questions usually chain: listservices or listplaces to resolve a filter, then searchfacilities, then getfacility. Every result carries its canonical www.mediawork.io URL so an agent can cite the source.
Read-only, structurally
The deployment holds exactly one environment variable, APPAPIURL, and every byte it serves comes from https://app.mediawork.io/api/www/* — the same public contract the marketing site consumes. There are no database credentials and no write path, so "read-only" is a property of the deployment's shape rather than a promise in a comment.
Contributing
Setup, the test commands and the house conventions are in CONTRIBUTING.md.
