Turn long podcast episodes, video or audio, into captioned vertical clips and transcripts. Slice is a hosted MCP server from [tryslicemedia.com](https://tryslicemedia.com/agents). An agent can start an episode, list the clips Slice found, search for clips about a topic, make and restyle clips, read captions and transcribe recordings. On video the frame follows whoever is talking, with layouts for two-person shows. Audio-only episodes get templates built from the cover art and the words. **Tools:** start_episode, get_episode, make_clips, get_job, restyle_clip, find_clips_about, list_styles, read_captions, transcribe_audio, transcription_status, email_transcript. **Sign-in:** OAuth with your Slice account, asked only when a tool needs it. Uses the same account and plan as the website: first video and first 3 clips free, then $14.99 a month. **Limits:** files only (no YouTube links), up to 3 hours an episode.

MCP readiness

B · 86/100

Readiness is how fully this listing follows its protocol and how it behaved in our probes over 30 days. It is shown for reference and does not move it in search. Search order and leaderboards use the separate quality grade (here B, 80.3/100), which weighs availability, conformance, p95 speed and descriptor. How the two differ

Valid MCP handshake	10/10	initialize and tools/list both answered.
Live MCP endpoint	25/25	Endpoint answers the MCP initialize handshake (1327 ms).
Protocol revision	6/10	Speaks MCP 2025-06-18, 2 revision(s) behind 2026-07-28.
Signed descriptor	n/a	No MCP standard defines a signed server descriptor.
Uptime (30 days)	15/15	27/27 probes succeeded over 30 days (100%).
Tool declaration	10/10	Lists 22 tool(s) with descriptions.
Verified identity	5/10	Publisher declared (repository, package or homepage); claim this listing to verify domain control.
Freshness + modern flags	4/5	seen in a source within 7 days.
Auth declaration	2/5	Declares credential scheme: smithery_api_key.

Applicable criteria total 90 points, scaled to 100.

Responsiveness: Responsive (1327 ms; bands ≤2.5 s, ≤5 s, ≤8 s, slower; penalty only).

Measured 2026-11-11.

Nine criteria, the same as the A2A readiness score, read from our daily MCP probe (initialize + tools/list) and 30-day probe history. No MCP standard defines a signed server descriptor, so that criterion is n/a and the other 90 points are scaled to 100. Grades: A>=90, B>=75, C>=60, D>=40, F<40. Display only: search order uses the quality grade.

Compared with peers

Against 53,039 reachable MCP servers in our daily snapshot (2026-11-12 06:46 UTC). Display only; it does not change search order.

Readiness: Higher than 80% of peers; This listing 86 · peer median 81
Latency: Faster than 21% of peers; This listing 614 ms · peer median 326 ms

Where it loses the most points, and how to win them back

Verified identity −5 — Claim the listing and prove control of its domain.
Now: Publisher declared (repository, package or homepage); claim this listing to verify domain control.
Protocol revision −4 — Support the current protocol revision.
Now: Speaks MCP 2025-06-18, 2 revision(s) behind 2026-07-28.
Auth declaration −3 — State how to authenticate (an auth scheme, or that none is needed).
Now: Declares credential scheme: smithery_api_key.
