**An agent can connect on its own if it already holds `VIEWMAX_TOKEN`.** Remote endpoint behind a static API key or header. The registry never sees the value; the agent fills the placeholder.

## Quality 76/100 (good)

### protocol: 75 (weight 25)

- warn `protocol.modern`: newest supported version is 2025-06-18; 2026-07-28 not supported, older versions are deprecated until 2027-07-28
- n/a `protocol.stateless`: only applies to 2026-07-28 servers
- pass `protocol.transport`: streamable HTTP
- n/a `protocol.list_ttl`: only applies to 2026-07-28 servers

### authorization: n/a (weight 15)

- n/a `auth.prm`, `auth.as_metadata`, `auth.cimd`: no remote uses OAuth
- n/a `auth.secret_in_url`: no templated URL

### tool hygiene: 64 (weight 30)

- pass `tools.descriptions`: every tool has a description
- warn `tools.description_length`: 1 tools have descriptions over 1,024 characters, which crowds the context
- pass `tools.schemas`: every tool has an object input schema
- fail `tools.annotations`: no tool declares readOnlyHint or destructiveHint, so clients cannot tell safe calls from risky ones
- fail `tools.directory_hints`: no tool declares all four of readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint and openWorldHint; missing: get_credit_balance (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); generate_video (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); get_video (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); …
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 852 tokens to load every tool
- pass `tools.api_dump`: tools are not a one-to-one API dump

### stability: 100 (weight 15)

- pass `stability.changes`: no tool changes in 30 days
- pass `stability.rug_pull`: no tool changed its meaning under the same name

### dependencies: n/a (weight 15)

- n/a `deps.known_vulns`, `deps.mcp_sdk_version`, `deps.resolvable`: no npm or PyPI package

- tools: 4, about 852 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: 465ecc863b70938f95fe536859bdcd7f
- badge: [![protogrid quality](https://protogrid.dev/badge/net.viewmaxstudio/viewmax.svg)](https://protogrid.dev/servers/net.viewmaxstudio/viewmax)
- Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed.

## Tools (4)

- `generate_video`: Render a video from a text prompt using ViewMax Studio. Returns immediately with a job id; the clip is not ready yet.

Rendering takes roughly two to four minutes. Call `get_video` with the returned id to collect the result, waiting about 15 seconds between checks. Do not poll faster than that, and tell the user it is rendering rather than going silent while you wait.

Credits are charged to the account the API key belongs to, and refunded automatically if the render fails. Available models:
  - seedance-2-mini: Native audio and multi-shot cuts in one clip. Longest takes we offer. (4–15s, 480p/720p/1080p, with audio)
  - h3-max: Native 768p with no upscale pass. Fastest turnaround, up to 15s takes. (5–15s, 480p/768p, with audio)
  - h3-max-turbo: Half the price of H3 Max at the same sizes, and the quickest render we carry. (5–15s, 480p/768p, with audio)
  - viewmax-agent-2.0: Writes, cuts and scores a whole video from one brief, at any length you ask for. (15s and up, 720p, with audio)

Leave `model` unset to use the default. Call `list_video_models` if you need exact per-model limits or prices.
- `get_credit_balance`: How many ViewMax Studio credits the API key holder has left. Worth checking before booking an expensive render, since one that cannot be paid for is refused outright.
- `get_video`: Look up a render started by `generate_video`. While `status` is "pending" or "processing" the clip is still being made, so wait about 15 seconds and check again. When it is "completed" the result carries a public URL anyone can open, which you should hand the user directly. When it is "failed" the credits have already been refunded.
- `list_video_models`: Every video model on offer with its exact limits and credit prices: which lengths, resolutions and frame shapes it accepts, whether it renders audio, how long it takes, and what a second of output costs. Use it to choose a model on price or capability, or to quote a cost before rendering.
