Image Analyzer MCP Server

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides image analysis tools using Pillow (PIL) — no external APIs required. All processing is done locally.

Features

• analyze_image — Get dimensions, format, color mode, file size, aspect ratio, and DPI from an image file

• analyze_image_base64 — Same analysis from a base64-encoded image string

• get_dominant_colors — Extract dominant colors as hex values with RGB components and approximate coverage percentages

• get_image_metadata — Read EXIF data including GPS coordinates, camera make/model, date taken, orientation, and more

• convert_image — Convert between PNG, JPEG, WEBP, and GIF formats, returned as base64

Requirements

• Python 3.10+

• mcp>=1.0.0

• Pillow>=10.0.0

Installation

cd image-analyzer-mcp
pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

Run with stdio transport (default — for MCP clients)

python server.py

This starts the server over stdio, suitable for integration with MCP clients (e.g., Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.).

Run with SSE transport (HTTP)

python server.py --transport sse --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8080

Requires uvicorn (pip install uvicorn).

MCP Client Configuration

Add to your MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "image-analyzer": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["/path/to/image-analyzer-mcp/server.py"],
      "transport": "stdio"
    }
  }
}

Returns: Same as analyze_image, but without the file path.

get_dominant_colors

Extract dominant colors from an image.

Returns: List of dominant colors with hex values, RGB components, and approximate percentage coverage.

get_image_metadata

Extract EXIF metadata from an image.

Returns: EXIF data including GPS coordinates, camera info, date taken, orientation, etc.
