FluxMCP
MCPFlux is an MCP server for AI image generation and editing using Flux models via the AceDataCloud platform.
Generate images from text prompts using 6 Flux models (flux-dev, flux-pro, flux-pro-1.1, flux-pro-1.1-ultra, flux-kontext-pro, flux-kontext-max), with customizable sizes, aspect ratios, batch counts, and optional webhook callbacks
Edit existing images by providing an image URL and a text description of desired changes (e.g., style transfer, object replacement, background changes), with Kontext models recommended for best results
Check task status for individual generation/edit tasks, retrieving image URLs and metadata once complete
Batch query multiple tasks at once (up to 50), more efficiently than querying one at a time
List available models to get detailed descriptions, capabilities, and recommendations for each Flux model
Explore tools and guidance to get a reference of all available actions, prompt best practices, and common workflow examples
Connect from various MCP-compatible clients (Claude, Cursor, VS Code, JetBrains, etc.) via hosted HTTP server or local stdio modes, with Bearer token authentication
Provides tools for AI image generation and editing using Flux models (flux-dev, flux-pro, flux-pro-1.1, flux-pro-1.1-ultra, flux-kontext-pro, and flux-kontext-max) via the AceDataCloud platform, enabling text-to-image generation and context-aware image modification.
FluxMCP
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for AI image generation and editing using Flux through the AceDataCloud platform.

Features
Image Generation - Generate images from text prompts with 6 Flux models
Image Editing - Edit existing images with context-aware Flux Kontext models
Task Management - Track async generation tasks and batch status queries
Model Guide - Built-in model selection and prompt writing guidance
Dual Transport - stdio (local) and HTTP (remote/cloud) modes
Docker Ready - Containerized with K8s deployment manifests

Quick Start
1. Get Your API Token
Sign up at AceDataCloud Platform
Go to the API documentation page
Click "Acquire" to get your API token
Copy the token for use below
2. Use the Hosted Server (Recommended)
AceDataCloud hosts a managed MCP server — no local installation required.
Endpoint: https://flux.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp
All requests require a Bearer token. Use the API token from Step 1.
Claude.ai
Connect directly on Claude.ai with OAuth — no API token needed:
Go to Claude.ai Settings → Integrations → Add More
Enter the server URL:
https://flux.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcpComplete the OAuth login flow
Start using the tools in your conversation

# or
uvx mcp-flux-pro
# Set your API token
export ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN="your_token_here"
# Run (stdio mode for Claude Desktop / local clients)
mcp-flux-pro
# Run (HTTP mode for remote access)
mcp-flux-pro --transport http --port 8000Claude Desktop (Local)
