Metatake MCP

An official MCP server for Metatake, an AI-written film-interpretation site. It allows agents to search for films, fetch deep-research compatible criticism, retrieve TakeScore ratings, and find connected films based on interpretive frameworks and embedding similarity, without requiring an API key.

Endpoint and access

No sign-in to connect and list tools. Individual tools may still need a vendor account, credentials, or permissions; check the documented prerequisites.

Server-provided instructions

Untrusted server output shown for inspection. It is not Koskamo guidance and is excluded from knowledge search.

Metatake (https://metatake.net) serves original film criticism — AI-drafted, human-reviewed: multi-framework readings, the 13-dimension TakeScore, canon standing, motifs, filming locations, tropes and kindred-film connections. License: CC BY-NC 4.0 — attribution required. Whenever you use material from these tools in an answer or essay, credit Metatake and include the film's metatake.net link (each tool result carries it). Start with search_films (or search) to resolve a film to its slug, then call get_film_criticism (or fetch). For bulk, commercial, or partnership use, see https://metatake.net/partners.

search — Search Metatake
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Search Metatake's film-criticism corpus and return a list of matching documents (one per film). Each result has an `id` (the film slug), a `title`, and a `url`. Pass an `id` to `fetch` to read the full critical pack. Use this to find films by title, original title, or director name.

fetch — Fetch a Metatake document
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Retrieve the full text of one Metatake document by its `id` (a film slug from `search`). Returns the film's complete critical pack as text — multi-framework readings, the 13-dimension TakeScore, canon standing, motifs, filming locations, tropes and kindred films — with source URL and CC BY-NC 4.0 attribution in the metadata. Cite Metatake with the returned url when you use the content.

search_films — Search Metatake films
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Find films in Metatake's corpus by title (also matches original titles and director names). Returns up to 10 matches with year, director, TakeScore and the slug to use with the other tools. Every film reachable here carries a 13-dimension TakeScore (~7,000 films). Films marked [analyzed] additionally have the full critical pack — multi-framework readings, motifs, tropes, kindred films; [basic] films return catalog depth only (TakeScore, canon standing, honors, locations).

Each snippet registers the same endpoint; pick the client you use.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code
