# Higgsfield MCP Integration

## Definition

The **Higgsfield Model Context Protocol (MCP)** integration is a custom connector added to [[entity-claude-d1]] that exposes [[entity-higgsfield]]'s image and video generation APIs as tools Claude can call directly from inside a chat.

## Why it matters

Traditionally a creator uses an LLM to write the prompt, then context-switches to Midjourney / Higgsfield / Runway and pastes the prompt into a separate UI. The Higgsfield MCP collapses that loop: a [[concept-claude-skills-d1]] can both *author* a prompt and *execute* it, returning the rendered MP4 or PNG inside the Claude chat window.

This powers two flagship workflows:

- [[concept-beat-image-video]] — script-to-storyboard generation.
- [[concept-face-lock]] — identity-preserving thumbnail generation, see [[action-build-thumbnail-skill]].

## Setup

See [[action-install-higgsfield-mcp]] for the exact configuration path (Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector).

## Time-savings claim

Alex claims this consolidation cuts content-creation time by **at least 50%** — see [[claim-time-savings]].

## Caveat (from enrichment)

MCP itself is a general Anthropic-promoted pattern for connecting Claude to external tools. The specific *"Higgsfield MCP"* connector is not widely documented in public sources, so latency, file format, and authentication details should be treated as creator-reported rather than vendor-spec. Integrations also introduce new failure modes (API changes, rate limits, auth drift) — production workflows should plan for fallback paths.
