Why This Package?

@runapi.ai/runway-aleph-mcp is a focused Model Context Protocol server for the Runway Aleph model line on RunAPI. It gives MCP-compatible assistants direct access to 0 endpoints and 0 model variants without loading the full RunAPI catalog.

Use this per-model server when an agent should stay scoped to Runway Aleph. Use @runapi.ai/mcp when one assistant should discover every RunAPI model line.

runway-aleph was retired on 2026-10-11T00:00:00Z. New requests return HTTP 410 before task creation or balance deduction. Existing tasks can still be queried. This model ID is not mapped to another model.

---

Install

Add it to Claude Code:

claude mcp add runway-aleph -s user -- npx -y @runapi.ai/runway-aleph-mcp

Use project scope when the server should be shared with a repository:

claude mcp add runway-aleph -s project -- npx -y @runapi.ai/runway-aleph-mcp

Codex, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, Roo Code, and other MCP hosts can use the same stdio command:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "runway-aleph": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@runapi.ai/runway-aleph-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

No models in this package accept new tasks. check_pricing returns no supported model. For historical task lookup, ask your assistant to call the login tool. It opens a browser login and saves credentials to ~/.config/runapi/config.json, the same file used by runapi login. Headless and CI hosts can still set RUNAPI_API_KEY before starting the MCP host.

Ready-made examples are in examples/ for Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, and Roo Code.

Agent Prompts

Query an existing task with get_task. New requests for this retired model return HTTP 410.

Check the status of my existing Runway Aleph task with RunAPI.

The assistant calls get_task with the task id and returns its status and available result.

---

Configuration

The server resolves auth in this order:

1. RUNAPI_API_KEY environment variable, useful for headless and CI hosts
2. ~/.config/runapi/config.json, created by the MCP login tool or runapi login
3. No key, which still allows check_pricing

The config file is normally managed by login. A pre-provisioned headless config can use:

{
  "apiKey": "your_runapi_key"
}

Do not commit real API keys.
