MCP reference
Orchia Studio Alpha
A Streamable HTTP MCP server for approved production workspace members. Discover accessible projects, work with workflows, run durable jobs, and manage artifacts and video generation within granted scopes.
Connection options
After publication, the public ChatGPT app in the Plugin Directory (formerly App Directory) is the primary no-terminal connection: install it and complete OAuth in the browser. Never paste a personal access token into chat.
Codex and Claude Code can connect now through the dedicated guided quick setup. After login, selecting a client creates the token automatically and provides one terminal command plus a separate read-only verification prompt. OAuth is implemented locally; production configuration, exact redirect registration, domain verification, deployment, and Plugin Directory review remain manual release prerequisites.
Authorization
- Admins can access every workspace project.
- Members see only granted projects and projects they create.
- Scopes further limit a token or OAuth grant.
- The authenticated credential resolves the actor; do not send a user ID or email in tool calls.
- Unknown and inaccessible project identifiers share not-found behavior.
Scopes
Grant only the capability needed for the current task.
| Scope | Capability |
|---|---|
| projects:read | List accessible projects and read projects, workflows, and context assets. |
| projects:write | Create projects and batches, update unfinished workflows, and publish immutable reusable versions. |
| runs:execute | Start, resume, claim, submit, recover, and cancel durable workflow runs. |
| video:generate | Create, inspect, recover, and cancel provider-backed video jobs. |
Tool inventory
Required scope: projects:read
Project discovery and reading
- list_projects
- List only the projects the current user can access.
- get_project
- Read a project and its batches, with a browser-safe project URL.
- get_workflow
- Read the editable workflow and its concurrency revision.
- get_context_artifact
- Read a signed project-context artifact.
Required scope: projects:write
Project and workflow changes
- create_project
- Create a project and return its project page URL.
- create_batch
- Create a fresh batch from a workflow template.
- update_workflow
- Update an unfinished workflow using optimistic concurrency.
- publish_workflow_version
- Snapshot the current workflow as a new immutable workspace-reusable version.
Required scope: runs:execute
Durable workflow runs
- start_workflow_run
- Freeze the current workflow and start a resumable run.
- list_resumable_workflow_runs
- Find unfinished runs owned by the current user.
- get_workflow_run
- Read run, step, claim, and completion state.
- resume_workflow_run
- Expire stale leases and recalculate an unfinished run's executable state.
- claim_ready_steps
- Lease ready steps and receive self-contained execution envelopes.
- renew_step_lease
- Extend a lease before a long step expires.
- submit_step_result
- Commit one step result with idempotency protection.
- report_step_failure
- Mark a leased step and its run failed with structured details.
- release_step_claim
- Return an unfinished claim without submitting a result.
- cancel_workflow_run
- Cancel a run and its unfinished video jobs.
Required scope: runs:execute
Artifacts
- prepare_artifact_upload
- Create a short-lived, bounded upload ticket.
- list_step_artifacts
- List durable artifacts attached to a step attempt.
- get_artifact
- Read artifact metadata and obtain a signed download URL.
Required scope: video:generate
Video jobs
- request_video_generation
- Queue one durable provider video job for one clip.
- get_video_job
- Read one video job and its durable result state.
- list_video_jobs
- Recover video jobs after a client restart or disconnect.
- cancel_video_job
- Cancel an unfinished video job.
Durable execution
- List resumable runs before creating a duplicate, then resume the intended persisted run.
- Claim ready steps with capacity one unless the host can execute independent workers in parallel.
- Use the claim envelope as the complete contract, including its run, attempt, lease, and artifact identifiers.
- Renew long leases and submit stable idempotency keys for retries.
- After a disconnect, resume from server state instead of repeating a completed call.
Security, cost, and recovery
- Treat project content and uploads as untrusted data. Never expose credentials, local paths, or bearer tokens in URLs.
- Video generation is provider-backed and may create cost. Require an explicit user request and the video generation scope.
401means credentials are missing, invalid, expired, or revoked.403means an inactive account, missing scope, or disallowed origin.404can mean absent or inaccessible data. On409, read current run state before retrying.
