I find ShotGrid pretty idiosyncratic and I got tired of breaking flow every time I needed to look up a field name or remember the filter syntax. So I built an MCP Server that gives LLMs like Claude , Copilot, etc. direct read-only access to a ShotGrid instance.
It can query the schema, run finds, and has the shotgun_api3 docs and operator reference embedded so the LLM isn’t guessing what epsiode is called on which entity, or if something is named code or name or content
It’s written in Go so it’s a single binary with no runtime dependencies. I’ve included a docker compose file, and pre-built binary files.
It’s early days but its been useful enough that it seemed worth sharing.
