Security note

MCP servers receive tool arguments from a conversation and may perform external actions. Review what a server can do before you enable it, and give it only the access it needs.

The registry verified the GitHub account RyanKramer for this listing. That does not show the account is the product's maker.

SourceWeft's checks cover whether the listing is complete and the endpoint answered; they do not review the server's code or what its tools do.

Overview

AI-generated overview

Local MCP server giving assistants image editing tools: free offline edits, limited free AI tools, and paid AI product-photo generation.

What you can do: Resize, crop, rotate, flip, blur, adjust, watermark, pixelate, compress, convert and merge images, and read image info
Remove backgrounds, upscale 2x/4x, erase text and analyze images with AI
Manage paid account assets: check credits, list avatars and products, upload product images
Generate paid AI content: product photos, try-on shots, scenes, avatars, prompt extraction, text-prompt edits and UGC videos
Poll and list generation jobs
When to use it: Useful when an assistant needs to prepare, batch-edit or convert images locally, or when you want AI background removal, upscaling and product photography driven from chat without leaving the client.
Requirements: Runs locally as a Python package (uvx or pip). The PIXELPANDA_API_TOKEN environment variable is optional and only needed for paid tools; PIXELPANDA_API_URL can override the API base URL. Network access is needed for AI and paid tools; local tools run offline.

Before you install

Paid tools spend credits per image or job, and video generation costs 50 credits; credits are bought with a one-time or monthly payment. The API token is a live credential stored in the client config. Uploading products and generating avatars sends your images to the vendor's service.

Installation

In SourceWeft

Open Pixelpanda Mcp in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

PixelPanda MCP Server

AI image processing tools for Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible clients.

38 tools across three tiers — from free local image editing to AI-powered product photography.

Install

Setup

Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

json

{  "mcpServers": {    "pixelpanda": {      "command": "uvx",      "args": ["pixelpanda-mcp"],      "env": {        "PIXELPANDA_API_TOKEN": "pk_live_your_token_here"      }    }  }}

{  "mcpServers": {    "pixelpanda": {      "command": "uvx",      "args": ["pixelpanda-mcp"],      "env": {        "PIXELPANDA_API_TOKEN": "pk_live_your_token_here"      }    }  }}

Cursor

Add to your MCP settings (Settings > MCP Servers):

json

{  "pixelpanda": {    "command": "uvx",    "args": ["pixelpanda-mcp"],    "env": {      "PIXELPANDA_API_TOKEN": "pk_live_your_token_here"    }  }}

{  "pixelpanda": {    "command": "uvx",    "args": ["pixelpanda-mcp"],    "env": {      "PIXELPANDA_API_TOKEN": "pk_live_your_token_here"    }  }}

The API token is optional — all local and free AI tools work without it. You only need a token for paid generation tools.
