What its tools let an agent do: 8 read
Install Media Forge in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code
Runs npx -y mcp-media-forge on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.
claude mcp add media-forge -- npx -y mcp-media-forge

MCP Media Forge
MCP server that generates diagrams, charts, HTML pages, and slide decks from text DSLs -- designed for AI coding agents to embed into Markdown.
LLM agents call tools like rendermermaid, renderhtmlpage, or renderslides with text input, and get back file paths to assets ready to embed in docs.

Utilities
Quick Start
1. Start the rendering container (for diagram tools)
cd docker
docker compose up -dHTML page and slide tools work without Docker.
2. Install the MCP server
Option A -- npx (no install)
npx mcp-media-forgeOption B -- Clone and build
git clone https://github.com/PavelGuzenfeld/mcp-media-forge.git
cd mcp-media-forge
npm install
npm run build3. Register with your MCP client
Any MCP-compatible client (Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code + Copilot, Cline, etc.) can use this server. The standard config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"media-forge": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/path/to/mcp-media-forge/dist/index.js"],
"env": {
"PROJECT_ROOT": "/path/to/your/project"
}
}
}
}Where to add this depends on your client:
- Claude Code: ~/.claude/settings.json
- Cursor: MCP settings panel
- VS Code (Copilot): .vscode/mcp.json
- Cline: MCP server configuration
4. Use it
Ask your AI assistant to generate diagrams, pages, or presentations:
"Create a sequence diagram showing the OAuth2 flow and embed it in the README"
"Generate an HTML page summarizing the API architecture with KPI cards"
"Make a slide deck with our Q1 metrics and architecture overview"
The agent calls the appropriate tool, gets back a file path, and embeds it in your markdown.
