Enhanced Image Analysis MCP Server

A powerful Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that uses advanced heuristics to analyze images and generate intelligent, descriptive filenames. Perfect for organizing large photo collections, screenshots, and digital assets.

🚀 Features

  • 🎯 Smart Image Analysis: Advanced heuristic analysis of image characteristics

  • 📝 Intelligent Naming: Four naming styles (descriptive, technical, artistic, location)

  • 📂 Batch Processing: Analyze entire directories with recursive search

  • 🎨 Color Analysis: Dominant color detection and classification

  • 📊 EXIF Data: Extract camera settings, timestamps, and metadata

  • 📁 Auto Organization: Sort images into folders by content, date, size, or format

  • 🔍 Comprehensive Metadata: Extract detailed technical information

  • ⚡ Smart Caching: Avoid re-analyzing unchanged images

📦 Installation

  • Color Family: Classification (red, blue, green, etc.)

  • Grayscale Detection: Identifies black & white images

  • Brightness Analysis: Average brightness calculation

Content Detection

The server analyzes filename patterns to detect:

  • Screenshots: Screen captures and UI elements

  • Photos: Camera-taken images and photography

  • Edited Images: Modified or processed images

  • Scans: Digitized documents

  • Logos/Icons: Brand and graphic elements

EXIF Data Extraction

  • Camera Information: Make, model, settings

  • Timestamps: When photo was taken

  • Software: Editing applications used

  • GPS Data: Location information (when available)

🚀 Example Workflows

Organize Downloads Folder

I have a messy Downloads folder with hundreds of images. Can you organize them by content type and suggest better names?

Rename Vacation Photos

Analyze images in ~/Pictures/Hawaii2024 recursively, use descriptive naming with prefix "hawaii", and actually rename the files

Technical Analysis

Extract comprehensive metadata from ~/Desktop/camera_test.jpg including color analysis and EXIF data

Batch Screenshot Organization

Organize all images in ~/Desktop by content, actually create the folders and move files

🔧 Advanced Features

Intelligent Conflict Resolution

  • Automatically handles duplicate filenames

  • Adds incremental counters when needed

  • Preserves original files during preview mode

Performance Optimizations

  • Smart Caching: Avoids re-analyzing unchanged images

  • Efficient Color Analysis: Uses image thumbnails for color detection

  • Batch Processing: Optimized for large directories

Error Handling

  • Graceful Degradation: Continues processing other files if one fails

  • Detailed Error Reports: Clear error messages for troubleshooting

  • File Validation: Ensures only supported formats are processed

📋 Supported Formats

  • JPEG (.jpg, .jpeg)

  • PNG (.png)

  • GIF (.gif)

  • BMP (.bmp)

  • TIFF (.tiff)

  • WebP (.webp)

🛡️ Safety Features

  • Preview Mode: Default behavior suggests changes without applying them

  • Backup Consideration: Always backup important files before batch operations

  • Permission Checks: Validates file system permissions before operations

  • Non-destructive Analysis: Metadata extraction never modifies original files

🚨 Troubleshooting

Common Issues

  1. "No image files found"

    • Verify directory path is correct

    • Check if images are in supported formats

    • Try recursive search for images in subdirectories

  2. "Permission denied"

    • Ensure read/write permissions on target directory

    • Check if files are not locked by other applications

  3. "Failed to analyze image"

    • File may be corrupted or not a valid image

    • Check if sufficient disk space is available

Debug Mode

# Run with debug logging python3 enhanced_image_analysis_server.py --debug
