Memeboat MCP

memeboat-mcp MCP server

MCP server for Memeboat — search 25,000+ meme templates and create real, shareable memes straight from your AI assistant. Free, anonymous, no API key.

Demo: Claude creates a meme via memeboat-mcp

Ask your assistant things like:

"Make a Buzz Lightyear everywhere meme about code reviews"

…and it will search the catalog, caption the template, and hand you back a live meme URL:

https://memebo.at/meme/x-x-everywhere-code-reviews-code-reviews-everywhere-ab12cd

Install

Memeboat is also hosted as a remote MCP server at https://memebo.at/mcp (streamable HTTP, no auth):

claude mcp add --transport http memeboat https://memebo.at/mcp

In Claude (web/desktop): Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → https://memebo.at/mcp.

npm package (stdio)

Requires Node.js 18+.

Claude Code

claude mcp add memeboat -- npx -y memeboat-mcp

Claude Desktop

Add to claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "memeboat": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "memeboat-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Cursor / other MCP clients

Any client that speaks stdio MCP works the same way: run npx -y memeboat-mcp.

What it does

search_meme_templates

Search templates by name or topic (query, optional limit). Returns slugs, image URLs and a suggestedCaptionCount per template.

get_meme_template

Details for one template by slug: dimensions, image URL, caption count.

create_meme

Caption a template (template slug + texts[], top-to-bottom) and get back the meme's page URL and direct image URL. Supports per-caption styling and layout (see below).

Caption placement: 1 text = bottom caption, 2 texts = classic top/bottom, more texts fill the template's own caption boxes in order — matching suggestedCaptionCount gives the best results.

Styling (create_meme): each entry in texts[] can be a plain string or an object { text, color?, outline?, font? }. Colors are a hex value (#f00/#ff0000) or one of white, black, red, yellow, blue, green; leave outline off and a readable outline is picked for you. A top-level font sets the default for every caption, and layout: "top" puts the captions in a white bar above the image instead of overlaying them. Fonts: impact, arial, helvetica, times, courier, titillium, thick, kalam, comic, notosans, notosanshebrew.

"Make a drake meme, red top caption, in the top layout"

How it works

This package is a thin stdio client over Memeboat's public JSON API (https://memebo.at/api/...). Created memes are rendered server-side by Memeboat and hosted there — the image URL is immediately shareable. Creation is rate-limited per IP; be a good citizen.

Point the server at another instance with MEMEBOAT_API_URL (useful for development).
