Usage

As a standalone server

Run the server by specifying one or more allowed directories where the converted images can be saved:

node build/index.js /path/to/allowed/directory1 /path/to/allowed/directory2

With Claude Desktop

  1. Download and install Claude Desktop
  2. Create or confirm you have access to an output directory:
    # macOS/Linux mkdir -p ~/Desktop/svg-output # Windows mkdir "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\svg-output"
  3. Configure Claude Desktop by editing the configuration file:
    • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
    • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
  4. Open the Claude app, click on the Claude menu in your system menu bar and select "Settings..."
  5. Click on "Developer" in the left sidebar
  6. Click "Edit Config" to open the configuration file
  7. Add this server configuration:
{ "mcpServers": { "svg-converter": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "mcp-svg-converter", "/absolute/path/to/output/directory" ] } } }
Using global installation

If you've installed the package globally:

{ "mcpServers": { "svg-converter": { "command": "mcp-svg-converter", "args": [ "/absolute/path/to/output/directory" ] } } }
Using local build

If you've built from source:

{ "mcpServers": { "svg-converter": { "command": "node", "args": [ "/absolute/path/to/mcp-svg-converter/build/index.js", "/absolute/path/to/output/directory" ] } } }
  1. Save the file and restart Claude Desktop

Verifying the Setup

When Claude Desktop restarts, if configured correctly:

  1. You should see a hammer icon at the bottom right of the input box indicating MCP tools are available.
  2. Clicking the hammer icon should show the svg-to-png and svg-to-jpg tools.

Examples in Claude Desktop

Example 1: Converting a Simple SVG to PNG

In Claude Desktop, send a message like:

Please convert this SVG to PNG and save it to my output directory: <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 200 100" width="200" height="100"> <rect x="10" y="10" width="80" height="80" fill="#4285f4" /> <circle cx="140" cy="50" r="40" fill="#ea4335" /> <path d="M10 50 L90 50 L50 90 Z" fill="#fbbc05" /> <text x="100" y="20" font-family="Arial" font-size="12" text-anchor="middle" fill="#34a853">SVG Example</text> </svg>

Example 2: High-Quality JPG Conversion

Please convert this SVG to a JPG with 95% quality and 2x scaling: <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 200 200"> <rect width="200" height="200" fill="#f0f0f0" /> <circle cx="100" cy="100" r="80" fill="#ff6b6b" /> <path d="M100 50 L130 150 L70 150 Z" fill="white" /> </svg>

Tools

svg-to-png

Converts SVG code to a high-quality PNG image with transparency support.

Parameters:

  • svgCode (string, required): The SVG code to convert
  • outputPath (string, required): Path where the PNG file should be saved
  • backgroundColor (string, optional): Background color (default: transparent)
  • scale (number, optional): Scale factor for higher resolution (default: 1)

svg-to-jpg

Converts SVG code to a high-quality JPG image.

Parameters:

  • svgCode (string, required): The SVG code to convert
  • outputPath (string, required): Path where the JPG file should be saved
  • backgroundColor (string, optional): Background color (default: white)
  • quality (number, optional): JPEG quality from 1-100 (default: 90)
  • scale (number, optional): Scale factor for higher resolution (default: 1)

Advanced Usage Tips

Specifying Multiple Output Directories

You can specify multiple allowed output directories for more flexible file saving:

{ "mcpServers": { "svg-converter": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "mcp-svg-converter", "/Users/yourusername/Desktop/svg-output", "/Users/yourusername/Documents/svg-images", "/Users/yourusername/Downloads" ] } } }

Using Custom Output Filenames

Specify detailed file paths in your request:

Please convert this SVG to PNG, and save it as "colorful_shapes.png" in my output directory. <svg>...</svg>

Automatic Path Redirection

If you request saving to a non-allowed directory, the converter automatically redirects to an allowed directory and informs you of the actual save location.

Troubleshooting

Claude Doesn't Show MCP Tools Icon

  1. Verify the configuration file has correct JSON syntax
  2. Ensure all paths are absolute paths
  3. Make sure output directories exist and are writable
  4. Completely exit and restart Claude Desktop
  5. Check Claude logs:
    • macOS: ~/Library/Logs/Claude/mcp*.log
    • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\logs\mcp*.log

Tool Execution Fails

  1. Ensure mcp-svg-converter is correctly installed
  2. Check output directory permissions
  3. Verify the SVG code is valid
  4. Check Claude logs for detailed error messages

"Command Not Found" Error

  1. Ensure mcp-svg-converter is globally installed or correctly reference npx
  2. Confirm npm's global bin directory is in your PATH
  3. Try using full paths in configuration

Debugging

You can use the MCP Inspector to debug and test the server directly:

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector npx mcp-svg-converter /path/to/allowed/directory

This opens an interactive interface where you can test all available tools without going through Claude Desktop.

Security Considerations

  • The server will only write files to the directories specified when starting the server
  • If a user attempts to save to a non-allowed directory, the file will be automatically redirected to an allowed directory
  • Path traversal attacks are prevented by proper path validation

Claude Desktop 中的使用示例

示例 1:将简单 SVG 转换为 PNG

在 Claude Desktop 中发送以下消息:

请将这个 SVG 转换为 PNG 并保存到我的输出目录: <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 200 100" width="200" height="100"> <rect x="10" y="10" width="80" height="80" fill="#4285f4" /> <circle cx="140" cy="50" r="40" fill="#ea4335" /> <path d="M10 50 L90 50 L50 90 Z" fill="#fbbc05" /> <text x="100" y="20" font-family="Arial" font-size="12" text-anchor="middle" fill="#34a853">SVG 示例</text> </svg>

示例 2:高质量 JPG 转换

请将这个 SVG 转换为 95% 质量和 2 倍缩放的 JPG 图像: <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 200 200"> <rect width="200" height="200" fill="#f0f0f0" /> <circle cx="100" cy="100" r="80" fill="#ff6b6b" /> <path d="M100 50 L130 150 L70 150 Z" fill="white" /> </svg>

工具

svg-to-png

将 SVG 代码转换为支持透明度的高质量 PNG 图像。

参数:

  • svgCode (字符串,必需):要转换的 SVG 代码
  • outputPath (字符串,必需):PNG 文件的保存路径
  • backgroundColor (字符串,可选):背景颜色 (默认:透明)
  • scale (数字,可选):更高分辨率的缩放因子 (默认:1)

svg-to-jpg

将 SVG 代码转换为高质量 JPG 图像。

参数:

  • outputPath (字符串,必需):JPG 文件的保存路径
  • backgroundColor (字符串,可选):背景颜色 (默认:白色)
  • quality (数字,可选):JPEG 质量,范围从 1 到 100 (默认:90)
  • scale (数字,可选):更高分辨率的缩放因子 (默认:1)

高级使用技巧

指定多个输出目录

你可以指定多个允许的输出目录,以提供更灵活的文件保存选项:

{ "mcpServers": { "svg-converter": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "mcp-svg-converter", "/Users/yourusername/Desktop/svg-output", "/Users/yourusername/Documents/svg-images", "/Users/yourusername/Downloads" ] } } }

使用自定义输出文件名

在请求中指定详细的文件路径:

请将这个 SVG 转换为 PNG,并以文件名 "colorful_shapes.png" 保存到输出目录。 <svg>...</svg>

自动路径重定向

如果你请求保存到一个不允许的目录,转换器会自动将文件重定向到允许的目录,并在响应中告知你实际的保存位置。

故障排除

Claude 没有显示 MCP 工具图标

  1. 确认配置文件格式正确(JSON 语法)
  2. 检查所有路径是否为绝对路径
  3. 确保输出目录存在且可写
  4. 完全退出并重启 Claude Desktop
  5. 检查 Claude 日志:
    • macOS: ~/Library/Logs/Claude/mcp*.log
    • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\logs\mcp*.log

工具执行失败

  1. 确保已正确安装 mcp-svg-converter
  2. 检查输出目录的权限
  3. 验证 SVG 代码是否有效
  4. 检查 Claude 日志了解详细错误信息

"command not found" 错误

  1. 确保已全局安装 mcp-svg-converter 或正确引用 npx
  2. 确认 npm 的全局 bin 目录在系统 PATH 中
  3. 尝试在配置中使用完整路径

调试

您可以使用 MCP Inspector 直接调试和测试服务器:

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector npx mcp-svg-converter /path/to/allowed/directory

这将打开一个交互式界面,你可以在其中测试所有可用工具,而无需通过 Claude Desktop。

安全考虑

  • 服务器只会将文件写入启动服务器时指定的目录
  • 如果用户尝试保存到非允许目录,文件将自动重定向到允许的目录
  • 通过适当的路径验证防止路径遍历攻击
