## What it does

Comprehensive community MCP server exposing 25 tools across the full Tavus API: Phoenix replica (digital twin) training, persona management, video generation, real-time conversational video (CVI), lipsync, and speech synthesis. Tavus has no first-party MCP server; this is the most complete open implementation.
