Which integrations are available for this server?

Uses .env configuration for storing API keys and directory settings needed to connect the MCP server with Photoshop. Offers a Gradio client interface for testing the Photoshop automation tools, though with limited tool call functionality compared to other clients. Leverages Python for the implementation of the MCP server that connects to Photoshop, enabling programmatic control of PSD editing and creative workflows.

Usage

Install Requirements

Activate your Python environment and install dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Run Using the Gradio Client Provided

Heads Up: The Gemini Gradio client I've provided, for some reason does only a maximum of one tool call for any request, use this just to test the tool. For actual usage use Claude ot Cursor

Gradio Example Set Gemini Key in .env

GEMINI_API_KEY = PASTE_YOUR_KEY_HERE

Set Directories for PSDs, Assets and Exports

PSD_DIRECTORY = "D:\\Photoshop Files"
EXPORT_DIRECTORY = "D:\\PsMCP-Exports"
ASSETS_DIR = "D:\\PsMCP-Assets"

Run the App and connect to the Server

python app.py

Configure Server with Any MCP Client (Claude, Cursor, etc)

Add Server to Config file as follows to access the tools

{
 "mcpServers": {
   "PhotoshopAdv": {
     "command": "uv",
     "args": [
