GlianaAI MCP server
Pay-per-call generative AI for any MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, …). 90+ models — image, video, video editing, music, speech, LLM chat — plus utility and data tools, with no signup and no API key. Paid calls settle per call from your own wallet over MPP / x402.
- Browse + price everything for free (
list_models,get_price,get_schema,
list_tools).
generateruns a model and settles the gateway's 402 from your wallet (USDC on
Base). Your private key is read from the client config and never leaves your machine — non-custodial, same model as ai.glianalabs.com.
Tools
| Tool | Paid? | Description | |------|-------|-------------| | list_models | free | Every model: id, category, provider, per-call price. | | get_price | free | Exact cost of one call (input affects it — video duration, TTS length). | | get_schema | free | A model's input fields (required, defaults). | | generate | paid | Run a model → media URL, or assistant text for chat models. | | list_tools | free | Every utility tool: price, HTTP method, example input, guidance. | | tool | mostly paid | Run one utility tool — scraping, screenshots, social cards, OCR, structured extraction, market data, chain RPC, reference data. | | recipe | paid | Run a multi-model pipeline in one call (e.g. text→image→video). |
list_tools reads the gateway live, so it is never out of date — which is why this table doesn't enumerate the utility tools. A written-down list goes stale the moment a new endpoint ships, and this one had.
Some utility tools are free and need no wallet at all (list_tools reports them at priceMicroUsd: 0) — currently the Indonesian reference endpoints: official region data, prayer times, and NIK verification.
File inputs
Models that take a source file (image-to-video, video-to-video, transcription) accept a public URL in their file field (e.g. image, video_uri). Have a local file? Upload it first — no key, no payment:
curl -X POST https://api.glianalabs.com/v1/media \
-H "content-type: video/mp4" --data-binary @clip.mp4
# → { "url": "https://api.glianalabs.com/v1/media/<id>.mp4" }
Pass the returned url into the model field. Max 40 MB; video / image / audio only.
Install
Add to your MCP client config.
Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json) / Cursor (~/.cursor/mcp.json):

"args": ["-y", "gliana-ai-mcp"],
"env": {
"GLIANA_WALLET_KEY_FILE": "/absolute/path/to/gliana-wallet.key"
}

Payment rails
generate settles the gateway's 402 from your wallet. Pick a rail and set its key:
Use a dedicated wallet, funded with only what you intend to spend. This server signs payments locally — the key never leaves your machine and is never sent to us — but it is still a private key on a machine running an AI agent. Do not use a wallet that holds anything you would miss. *Prefer
_KEY_FILE over the inline variable.** Your MCP client config gets synced to cloud storage, committed by accident, and screenshotted when you ask someone for help. A file youchmod 600does not: ``bash printf '%s' '0xYOUR_KEY' > ~/.gliana-wallet.key && chmod 600 ~/.gliana-wallet.key`` Inline still works if you prefer it — the server just warns on stderr.
| Rail | Env var | Wallet needs | |------|---------|--------------| | base (default) | GLIANA_WALLET_KEY_FILE or GLIANA_WALLET_KEY (0x EVM key) | USDC on Base — gasless EIP-3009 signature | | tempo | same key as base | USDC on Tempo | | solana | GLIANA_SOLANA_KEY_FILE or GLIANA_SOLANA_KEY (base58 or JSON-array secret key) | USDC on Solana |
GLIANA_RAIL—base\|tempo\|solana. Optional; defaults tobase(or
solana if only a Solana key is set). The wallet must hold USDC on that chain.
GLIANA_API_URL— optional, defaults tohttps://api.glianalabs.com.
Keys are needed only for paid calls. The discovery tools — and the free utility tools list_tools reports at priceMicroUsd: 0 — work without any wallet.
Restart the client. Ask it to "list GlianaAI models" or "generate an image of a red fox with nano-banana-2".
Funding
Fund the wallet with a few dollars of USDC on your chosen chain (Base, Tempo, or Solana). You pay only the per-call price (see get_price); there's no subscription and no balance held by us.
Use a dedicated low-balance wallet for agents. Never paste your main wallet's key into any config.
