How to Set Up and Use Glif

Glif MCP Server connects your LLM client to the glif.app platform, enabling you to run hundreds of community-built AI workflows directly from Claude or other MCP clients. Workflows on glif cover image generation, meme creation, selfie filters, text transformation, and more — all powered by models like Flux, Stable Diffusion, and GPT-4. It bridges the gap between conversational AI and specialized multimedia generation pipelines without requiring you to leave your chat interface.

Prerequisites

  • Node.js 18+ installed
  • A glif.app account (free tier available at glif.app)
  • A Glif API token from https://glif.app/settings/api-tokens
  • An MCP-compatible client such as Claude Desktop or Cursor
1

Create a Glif account and generate an API token

Sign up or log in at glif.app, then navigate to Settings > API Tokens. Create a new token and copy it — you will need this for the configuration.

2

Find workflow IDs you want to use

Browse glif.app to find workflows you want to run. Each workflow URL contains its ID, e.g. glif.app/run/abc123. You can also let the server's discovery tools find workflows dynamically.

3

Configure your MCP client

Add the glif MCP server to your claude_desktop_config.json. Set GLIF_API_TOKEN to your token. Optionally set GLIF_IDS to a comma-separated list of workflow IDs to pre-load as named tools.

4

Restart your MCP client

Restart Claude Desktop or your MCP client to load the new server. The glif tools (run_workflow, search_workflows, my_workflows, etc.) will become available.

5

Search for and run a workflow

Ask Claude to search for workflows by topic or run a specific glif by ID. The run_workflow tool handles input parameters automatically based on the workflow's schema.

Glif Examples

Client configuration

Claude Desktop configuration with a Glif API token and optional pre-loaded workflow IDs. Replace 'your-token-here' with your actual token from glif.app/settings/api-tokens.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "glif": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@glifxyz/glif-mcp-server@latest"],
      "env": {
        "GLIF_API_TOKEN": "your-token-here",
        "GLIF_IDS": "workflow-id-1,workflow-id-2"
      }
    }
  }
}

Prompts to try

Example prompts for discovering and running Glif workflows from Claude.

- "Search for image generation workflows on Glif and run the most popular one with the prompt 'a cyberpunk city at night'."
- "Find a meme generator workflow on Glif and create a meme about programming bugs."
- "List my saved Glif workflows and run the selfie filter one with this description: neon anime style."

Troubleshooting Glif

Error: GLIF_API_TOKEN is not set or invalid

Ensure the GLIF_API_TOKEN environment variable is set in your MCP config's env block. Generate a new token at https://glif.app/settings/api-tokens if the existing one has expired or been revoked.

run_workflow fails with 'workflow not found'

Verify the workflow ID is correct by visiting the workflow page on glif.app. The ID appears in the URL (e.g., glif.app/run/abc123 → ID is 'abc123'). Some workflows may be private or deleted.

No tools appear after adding the server

Check that npx can resolve @glifxyz/glif-mcp-server by running 'npx -y @glifxyz/glif-mcp-server@latest' manually in a terminal. If it fails, ensure Node.js 18+ is installed and npm registry is accessible.
