RunAPI Midjourney MCP Server
This server provides AI agents with an MCP interface to RunAPI's Midjourney services, supporting:
Image generation: Create images from text with
text_to_image.Image editing: Edit images using
edit_image, optionally with masking.Video generation: Convert images to video (
image_to_video) and extend existing videos (extend_video).Prompt tools: Get seed (
get_seed), generate prompts from images (image_to_prompt), and shorten prompts (shorten_prompt) — all synchronous.Task management: Create async tasks with optional waiting; poll status/results via
get_task.Pricing: Check current pricing for models/endpoints with
check_pricing, no auth required.Authentication: Log in via browser PKCE flow or provide an API key in environment/config.
Integration: Works with Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, and any MCP-compatible host.
Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@RunAPI Midjourney MCP ServerGenerate a Midjourney image of a futuristic city at night."
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
Why This Package?
@runapi.ai/midjourney-mcp is a focused Model Context Protocol server for the Midjourney model line on RunAPI.
It gives MCP-compatible assistants direct access to 7 endpoints and 3 model variants without loading the full RunAPI catalog.
Use this per-model server when an agent should stay scoped to Midjourney. Use @runapi.ai/mcp when one assistant should discover every RunAPI model line.

Install
Add it to Claude Code:
claude mcp add midjourney -s user -- npx -y @runapi.ai/midjourney-mcpUse project scope when the server should be shared with a repository:
claude mcp add midjourney -s project -- npx -y @runapi.ai/midjourney-mcpCodex, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, Roo Code, and other MCP hosts can use the same stdio command:
{
"mcpServers": {
"midjourney": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@runapi.ai/midjourney-mcp"]
}
}
}check_pricing works before sign-in. For task creation and status polling, ask your assistant to call the login tool. It opens a browser login and saves credentials to ~/.config/runapi/config.json, the same file used by runapi login.
Headless and CI hosts can still set RUNAPI_API_KEY before starting the MCP host.
Ready-made examples are in examples/ for Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, and Roo Code.
Tools
Tool | Auth | Purpose |
| Yes | Create a Midjourney edit image task and optionally wait for a terminal status. Returns the task id, status, and output URLs. |
| Yes | Create a Midjourney extend video task and optionally wait for a terminal status. Returns the task id, status, and output URLs. |
| Yes | Run a Midjourney get seed operation synchronously. Returns the operation result. |
| Yes | Run a Midjourney image to prompt operation synchronously. Returns the operation result. |
| Yes | Create a Midjourney image to video task and optionally wait for a terminal status. Returns the task id, status, and output URLs. |
| Yes | Run a Midjourney shorten prompt operation synchronously. Returns the operation result. |
| Yes | Create a Midjourney text to image task and optionally wait for a terminal status. Returns the task id, status, and output URLs. |
| Yes | Fetch the current status and latest payload for an existing task. |
| No | Look up current pricing for a Midjourney model and endpoint. |
Models
Midjourney covers 3 model variants across 7 endpoints. Each tool accepts the models listed for it:
Tool | Models |

Model availability can change between releases. Use check_pricing or the Midjourney model page for the current catalog view.
Agent Prompts
Ask your assistant in natural language; it can inspect pricing, create the task, and return the task id plus output URLs.
Create a task
Run a Midjourney edit image task with RunAPI.The assistant can call check_pricing, then edit_image, and return the task id, status, and output URLs.
Submit without waiting
Create the task but don't wait for it to finish.The assistant calls the create tool with wait: false and returns the task id. Check on it later with get_task.
Check pricing before creating
Check current Midjourney pricing, then create the task if it matches my request.The assistant calls check_pricing and can link to the Midjourney model page for the canonical catalog entry.
Configuration
The server resolves auth in this order:
RUNAPI_API_KEYenvironment variable, useful for headless and CI hosts~/.config/runapi/config.json, created by the MCPlogintool orrunapi loginNo key, which still allows
check_pricing
The config file is normally managed by login. A pre-provisioned headless config can use:
{
"apiKey": "your_runapi_key"
}Do not commit real API keys.
