Recraft tools (24, 2 write)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsRead from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.
recraft_batch_generateGenerate multiple assets in sequence with full pipeline (generate → bg remove → save). Each asset failure does not stop others. Includes 300ms rate limit delay between assets.
recraft_check_creditsCheck your Recraft account info and remaining API credits
recraft_compare_stylesGenerate the same prompt in multiple styles for side-by-side comparison. Creates individual images and an optional comparison grid. Great for choosing the best style for your project.
recraft_create_stylewrite actionCreate a custom style from 1-5 reference images. Returns a style_id for use in generation tools. V3/V3 Vector only.
recraft_creative_upscaleUpscale an image with AI-generated detail enhancement and face refinement. Best for photos and realistic images.
recraft_crisp_upscaleUpscale an image with sharp, clean enhancement. Best for graphics, icons, illustrations.
recraft_download_imageDownload an image from a URL and save it to a local file. Useful for saving generated images.
recraft_enhance_promptExpand a short prompt into a richer, more detailed description with added visual context, style cues, and composition details. Use the result with any generation tool for more vivid output.
recraft_erase_regionContent-aware removal of a region in an image using a mask. White mask areas are erased and filled naturally.
recraft_exploreGenerate a set of images for visual exploration and discovery — diverse results from a prompt, no fine-grained style/color control. Returns image IDs usable with recraft_explore_similar.
recraft_explore_similarGenerate images visually similar to a source image previously created with recraft_explore. similarity controls how closely results resemble the source (1=slightly, 5=extremely similar).
recraft_generate_assetFull asset pipeline: generate image → download → optionally remove background → save to file. Perfect for game assets, icons, and UI elements.
recraft_generate_backgroundFill masked background areas within an image's existing canvas (same size in, same size out). White mask = fill area, black = preserve. For expanding the canvas beyond the original image bounds, use recraft_outpaint instead. V3/V3 Vector only.
recraft_generate_imageGenerate images from text prompt. Supports all Recraft models (V4, V4 Vector/SVG, V4 Pro, V3, V2), 70+ styles, color palette control, text layout, and multiple sizes. V4 Vector models produce SVG output.
recraft_generate_sizedGenerate an image at any target size (including small sizes like 64x64, 128x128, 256x256). Generates at API-compatible size, then resizes with Lanczos3 downsampling. Perfect for game sprites, icons, and UI elements.
recraft_generate_themed_setGenerate a complete themed asset set for game design. Creates a hero asset, builds a custom style from it, then generates all remaining symbols with visual consistency. Optionally generates background and outputs a Pixi.js-compatible asset manifest.
recraft_image_to_imageTransform an existing image with a text prompt. Adjustable strength controls how much the original is preserved. V3/V3 Vector models only.
recraft_inpaintEdit specific regions of an image using a mask. White mask areas are regenerated, black areas are preserved. V3/V3 Vector only.
recraft_outpaintExtend an image beyond its original boundaries with AI-generated content (canvas expansion). Different from recraft_generate_background, which only fills masked areas within the existing canvas. Specify a target size, per-side expand amounts, and/or a zoom-out percentage. V3/V3 Vector only.
recraft_remove_backgroundwrite actionRemove the background from an image, producing a transparent PNG.
recraft_replace_backgroundReplace the background of an image with AI-generated content. Keeps the subject, changes the scene. V3/V3 Vector only.
recraft_texture_swapReplace a specific region of an image with AI-generated content. Generates new content matching the region aspect ratio, resizes it, and composites it onto the original. Perfect for Spine atlas texture swaps and spritesheet updates.
recraft_variate_imageGenerate variations of an existing image. Produces similar but different versions.
recraft_vectorizeConvert a raster image (PNG/JPG/WEBP) to SVG vector format.

What the publisher says
From the Recraft repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
🎨 Recraft MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives AI assistants (Claude, Gemini, or any MCP client) direct access to the Recraft AI image generation API — generate, transform, upscale, and vectorize images without leaving your chat.
"Generate a set of 8 fantasy game icons in the same art style."
"Remove the background from this screenshot and upscale it."
"Create 5 style variations of this logo and put them in a comparison grid."
Coming from the official server?
Recraft archived @recraft-ai/mcp-recraft-server in July 2026 and now points users at a hosted endpoint, https://mcp.recraft.ai/mcp. Which of the three you want depends on what you are doing:
If you only generate the occasional image, the hosted server is less work and this one has nothing to offer you. If you are producing assets in bulk, working from files already on disk, or need to know what a run costs before it runs, that is what this exists for.
Tool name mapping
The names are the old ones with a recraft_ prefix, except where noted:
One behavioural difference worth knowing: Recraft's style field takes six broad families, and the specific look (pixelart, kawaii, band_w…) is a separate substyle field. Passing a substyle name as style is silently ignored by the API. This server accepts either and routes it correctly, so prompts written against the old servers keep working.
