Tolstoy MCP: create content from your approved media

Tolstoy's MCP server opens your Tolstoy workspace to your AI app: products, the media library, uploads, models, templates and projects. Create content from your approved Tolstoy media without leaving Claude or ChatGPT. ContextGate connects it to Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, so you choose which workspace tools stay on and every upload shows up in Activity.
