Introduction
Connect your AI agent to ReelFarm. Ask for a slideshow, get finished slides back.
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is how AI apps use outside tools. Connect ReelFarm and your agent can design, write and render TikTok and Instagram slideshows for you.
Server URL
https://reel.farm/api/v2/mcpOne URL for every client. Most sign in with OAuth, so there's nothing to copy. See Authentication.
How it works
- 1
Your agent connects
It reads the list of ReelFarm tools and how to use them. - 2
You ask for a slideshow
In plain words, or by pasting a TikTok or Instagram post to copy. - 3
Your agent does the work
It picks a design format, writes every slide and finds the photos. - 4
ReelFarm renders it
You get the finished slides back as images, ready to post.

Quick example
You ask: “Make a slideshow about the top 5 movies on Netflix this year.” Your agent then calls:
- 1
list_design_formatsPicks a movie ranking format from your formats and the library. - 2
list_design_formatswithformat_idReads the format's slots and word limits. - 3
movies_tvRanks this year’s Netflix movies and gets each poster. - 4
create_design_postSends the slides it wrote. ReelFarm renders them and returns the images.
Posting
ReelFarm makes slideshows. It doesn't post or schedule them.
To post from the same chat, add the Postiz MCP next to ReelFarm. Your agent hands Postiz the slide images and the time to post.
