CrewOne
Connects Claude Desktop, Cursor, and other MCP clients to Taiwan film production data: 1,187 Taipei equipment rental rates, 561 studio listings, and 69 photographer style references with lighting setups and AI prompt tokens. Free tier lets you search gear prices, filter studios by size and budget, and pull reference libraries. Paid tier (requires CREWONE_API_KEY from crewone.ai) adds AI-generated pre-production packages that cost 1 credit per project. Useful if you're quoting Taiwan commercial shoots, need local crew rate benchmarks, or want photographer lighting hallmarks fed directly into your agent's context without leaving the editor.

Readme
@crewone/mcp-server
MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for CrewOne. Lets Claude Desktop, Cursor, Continue, Cline, and any other MCP-aware AI agent query Taiwan film equipment rates, studio rentals, photographer style references, MV/commercial director references, and (with API key) generate full pre-production packages.
What is this
CrewOne maintains a structured database of:
- 1,187 real Taipei film equipment rental rates (cameras, lenses, lighting, grip, sound)
- 561 real Taiwan studio rates with size, ceiling, lighting, power, parking
- 69 commercial / fashion / portrait photographer style references with on-set lighting hallmarks and AI prompt tokens
- 30+ MV and commercial director style references with prompt tokens for video generation models
This MCP server exposes that data (and the generative pipeline) to AI agents. When you ask Claude Desktop "how much does an FX6 rent for in Taipei" or "give me a Tim Walker–style lighting setup", the agent calls this server, gets a real answer, and replies.
