Magic Hour MCP Server

OpenAPI-backed MCP server for Magic Hour image, video, and audio generation. At startup, this server reads docs/openapi.json and builds MCP tools with FastMCP.from_openapi(). The OpenAPI spec supplies endpoint coverage, while Magic Hour MCP policies add agent-facing guidance for async polling, uploads, and project downloads.

Teams that work with claude plugin and ai audio and want a hosted endpoint instead of running a local process. The project is written in Python.
