Pixfaro tools (8, 1 write)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts
  • check_jobFree

    Check an async generation job by its j_… id. Slow models (mode "async" in list_models) return a job instead of an image — poll this until it succeeds or fails.

  • edit_imageFree

    Edit a previously generated image by its img_… id with a natural-language instruction.

  • generate_imageFree

    Generate an image from a text prompt. Returns a hosted URL plus cost and balance. Slow models (mode "async" in list_models) return a j_… job id instead — poll it with check_job.

  • get_balanceFree

    Show the current prepaid balance in USD.

  • list_modelsFree

    List available image models with pricing and latency.

  • list_templatesFree

    List card templates with their slots, style axes and exact price.

  • render_templateFree

    Render a typeset card from a template — a finished, on-brand social image (quote card, post card) in about two seconds. Cheaper and more legible than generating type with a model. Get the templates and their slots from list_templates.

  • upload_assetwrite actionFree

    Upload an image (PNG or JPEG, ≤5 MB) as a reusable asset — an avatar for a card, for example. Returns an ast_… id to pass into a template slot.

What the publisher says

From the Pixfaro repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

Pixfaro MCP — image generation MCP server for every image model

One MCP connection, one prepaid balance, every major image model — Nano Banana, Gemini today, GPT Image next (visible as "coming soon" in list_models). Pixfaro holds the provider accounts, keys, retries and format differences; your agent just asks for an image.

Works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and any MCP client.

Quickstart — no terminal needed (≈1 minute)

The remote server is the easiest path: paste one URL, sign in with your Pixfaro account in the browser window that opens. No API key in any file.

Claude (claude.ai / Claude Desktop, any plan): Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → URL https://mcp.pixfaro.com/mcp → sign in. (Team/Enterprise: an org Owner adds it once under Organization settings → Connectors → Custom → Web.)

Cursor: Add to Cursor → — or Cursor Settings → MCP → Add new MCP server (type URL, address https://mcp.pixfaro.com/mcp); Cursor runs the OAuth flow itself.

ChatGPT (Pro/Plus/Business/Edu): Settings → enable Developer mode (connectors live under Plugins since the July 2026 rename, formerly Connectors → Advanced) → add a custom connector with URL https://mcp.pixfaro.com/mcp, OAuth.

Quickstart — command line / config file

  1. Get an API key at pixfaro.com and top up (no subscription).
  2. Add the server to your MCP client config:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pixfaro": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@pixfaro/mcp"],
      "env": { "PIXFARO_KEY": "pf_live_…" }
    }
  }
}
  1. Ask your agent for an image. That's it.

For Claude Code:

claude mcp add pixfaro -e PIXFARO_KEY=pf_live_… -- npx -y @pixfaro/mcp

Clients that speak streamable HTTP can also take the remote form in the same file — no key, OAuth on first use:

{ "mcpServers": { "pixfaro": { "url": "https://mcp.pixfaro.com/mcp" } } }

without OAuth can pass an API key instead: Authorization: Bearer pflive….

Tools

Replies carry a hosted URL, never base64 — your agent's context stays small.

Both generation tools accept aspect_ratio (e.g. "16:9", "9:16"). Edits keep the source image's shape when you omit it — pass one only to reshape.

CLI

The same package family ships an unscoped CLI for scripts, CI, and pipelines:

export PIXFARO_KEY=pf_live_…
npx pixfaro gen "a lighthouse at night, minimal flat style" -a 16:9 -o cover.png
npx pixfaro models
npx pixfaro balance
npx pixfaro edit img_8f2a… "make the sky darker" -o v2.png

Environment

What this repo is

The thin open client over the Pixfaro API: the MCP server (@pixfaro/mcp) and the pixfaro CLI share one HTTP client. The balance/provider layer lives behind api.pixfaro.com — this code is intentionally small enough to read before you hand it a key.
