genflowai_search_templatesLABSCO SUMMARY
Built around the run id, not the prompt.
Generation is asynchronous throughout: you start a run, keep the id, and poll status and progress until it completes or fails. That shape suits batch creative work — many SKUs through the same template — far better than a request that blocks. Discovery being free of credentials is a genuinely useful property: you can explore what templates exist before deciding whether to sign up.
What it is
A connector to GenflowAI, a platform for reusable creative workflows rather than one-off generations. It covers the whole production loop from the agent side: discover a template, inspect what inputs it needs, upload the assets, start the run, and collect the finished images, video, audio or text.
What you get
- Local images, videos or audio uploaded to GenflowAI storage —
genflowai_upload_asset - Your saved workflows listed with their required input fields —
genflowai_list_my_workflows - One workflow's input schema with field names, media types, required flags, defaults and options —
genflowai_get_workflow_schema - A marketplace template or a saved workflow started as an async run —
genflowai_run_template,genflowai_run_workflow - Generation status and progress polled by run id, and the final output fetched —
genflowai_get_task_status,genflowai_get_run_process,genflowai_get_task_result - Public marketplace search across template categories — product photography, ad creatives, UGC video, fashion, jewellery, perfume and marketplace assets — which works without any credential
Requirements
A GenflowAI API key in GENFLOWAI_API_KEY, generated in GenflowAI Studio under User Profile > API Key — needed for asset upload and for starting runs; public template discovery works without it. The server is remote over Streamable HTTP at https://www.genflowai.io/mcp, taking the key either as an Authorization: Bearer header or as x-api-key for clients that cannot send bearer headers. GENFLOWAI_BASE_URL and GENFLOWAI_OPENAPI_BASE_URL override the endpoints for development or staging. Installable as a Codex plugin with codex plugin marketplace add cwjgege/genflowai-codex-plugin --ref main.
Setup effort
Follow the published steps — codex plugin marketplace add cwjgege/genflowai-codex-plugin --ref main
USE CASES
Producing listing images across many products
Upload each product photo and run the same template per SKU, tracking each run by its id rather than waiting on one at a time.
Running a workflow you already built
List your saved workflows, read the input schema to see exactly what it expects, then start the run with the right fields filled.
Finding a template before committing to the platform
Search the public marketplace for the category you need — UGC video, product video, ad creative — with no key configured.
Collecting finished output back into the conversation
Poll progress on a run and fetch the resulting image, video, audio or text when it lands.

What to know first
Tools you get
12 tools named in the project's documentation. The four discovery tools (genflowai_search_templates, genflowai_get_template, genflowai_list_topics, genflowai_prepare_template_run) need no key; the eight that upload or run workflows need GENFLOWAI_API_KEY.
Requires
GENFLOWAI_API_KEY in your environment
INSTALLATION

Server setup
Setup
Codex
codex plugin marketplace add cwjgege/genflowai-codex-plugin --ref main
codex plugin add genflowai-codex-plugin@genflowai(HTTPS Git URL alternative for step 1: codex plugin marketplace add https://github.com/cwjgege/genflowai-codex-plugin.git --ref main)
Generate an API key in GenflowAI Studio under User Profile > API Key, then: export GENFLOWAI_API_KEY="<YOUR_GENFLOWAI_API_KEY>" — required before any upload or run tool works
Start a new Codex thread and prompt it, e.g. 'Use GenflowAI to find a reusable AI product photography workflow for Amazon listing images.'
