What is ElevenLabs MCP?
ElevenLabs lets an AI client manage voice agents and generate speech, music, sound effects, images, and video.
Summary generated from the project's README
About ElevenLabs MCP server
Managing voice agents and generating multimedia content from within a coding environment is what this server enables. Developers using Cursor, Claude Code, or OpenAI Codex can direct an AI client to build real-time voice assistants, dub videos into different languages, or create instrumental music and sound effects. The system provides specialized workflows for iterating on agent architectures, including testing, memory persistence, and workflow graph editing.
This is a hosted MCP server that requires no local installation and no manual API key entry. Instead, users authenticate through an OAuth flow with their ElevenLabs account. Once connected, the client can perform tasks like text-to-speech generation in over 70 languages, voice isolation to remove background noise, and transcription using Scribe v2. The server also supports advanced agent management such as duplicating agents, inspecting knowledge base sizes, and estimating LLM usage.
What you can do with it
- 1Build real-time voice assistantsInstruct your coding agent to create and deploy functional voice AI agents.
- 2Generate multimedia assetsAsk the AI to produce background music, jingles, or specific sound effects from text descriptions.
- 3Translate video contentUse the dubbing skill to translate audio and video while keeping the original speaker's voice.
- 4Refine agent architecturesSimplify complex agent workflows into leaner structures using proven equivalent architectures.

What's included
Skills
Skills live in three trees:
- skills/general/ — general ElevenLabs product skills, copied from the official elevenlabs/skills repository. Don't edit these here; contribute upstream instead.
- skills/mcp/ — plugin-native skills that teach agents how to drive the bundled ElevenLabs MCP server.
- architect/skills/ — Architect skills: opinionated workflows for building and iterating on ElevenLabs agents, mirrored from the internal Architect plugin. Shared payload examples live in architect/reference/.

MCP Server
The ElevenLabs hosted MCP server — no local install, no API key. Your agent authenticates with your ElevenLabs account over OAuth and gets access to agent management (create, update, list, duplicate, delete agents; inspect widget config, links, and knowledge base size; estimate LLM usage) and text-to-speech generation. Configured in mcp.json.
Installation
Cursor
Install from the Cursor marketplace, or add this repo as a plugin. When Cursor connects to the MCP server, sign in with your ElevenLabs account to complete the OAuth flow.
Claude Code
/plugin marketplace add elevenlabs/plugin
/plugin install elevenlabs@elevenlabs
Or install directly for development: claude --plugin-dir /path/to/plugin
Codex
codex plugin marketplace add elevenlabs/plugin
Then install via /plugins in Codex, or invoke skills with $skill-name.
Skills only (any agent)
npx skills add elevenlabs/skills
Requirements
- An ElevenLabs account — you'll sign in via OAuth when your agent connects to the MCP server
- Internet access
