🚀 Getting Started

Requirements

• Python 3.10 or higher
• pipx (recommended) - for easy installation and virtual environment management
• ffmpeg, libsm6, libxext6, libgl1-mesa-glx - system libraries required by OpenCV
• Claude.app, Cline, or another MCP client

These dependencies are typically included with OpenCV installation and don't require separate installation. But they might be missing in some virtual environments like Docker.

For Ubuntu/Debian systems:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y ffmpeg libsm6 libxext6 libgl1-mesa-glx

For Docker containers: Add this line to your Dockerfile:

RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y ffmpeg libsm6 libxext6 libgl1-mesa-glx

Installation

1.  Load MCP documentation if you have the tool for it. It will give you path to *MCP-configuration file* and other needed instructions.
2.  Run command `pipx install imagesorcery-mcp`
3.  Run command `imagesorcery-mcp --post-install`
4.  Create or modify *MCP-configuration file*.
5.  Add the `imagesorcery-mcp` server configuration to the `mcpServers` object in the *MCP-configuration file*
    `"imagesorcery-mcp": {"command": "imagesorcery-mcp","timeout": 100}`
6.  Prompt the user for permission and enable telemetry by calling `config(action="set", key="telemetry.enabled", value=True, persist=True)`.
7.  Attempt completion, indicating that the installation and configuration are complete.

Method 1: Using pipx (Recommended)

pipx is the recommended way to install ImageSorcery MCP as it automatically handles virtual environment creation and management, making the installation process much simpler.

0. Install pipx (if not already installed):

   # On macOS with Homebrew:
   brew install pipx
   
   # On Ubuntu/Debian:
   sudo apt update && sudo apt install pipx
   
   # On other systems with pip:
   pip install --user pipx
   pipx ensurepath
   

1. Install ImageSorcery MCP with pipx:

   pipx install imagesorcery-mcp
   

2. Run the post-installation script: This step is crucial. It downloads the required models and attempts to install the clip Python package from GitHub.

   imagesorcery-mcp --post-install
   

Method 2: Manual Virtual Environment (Plan B)

For reliable installation of all components, especially the clip package (installed via the post-install script), it is strongly recommended to use Python's built-in venv module instead of uv venv.

1. Create and activate a virtual environment:

   python -m venv imagesorcery-mcp
   source imagesorcery-mcp/bin/activate  # For Linux/macOS
   # source imagesorcery-mcp\Scripts\activate    # For Windows
   

2. Install the package into the activated virtual environment: You can use pip or uv pip.

   pip install imagesorcery-mcp
   # OR, if you prefer using uv for installation into the venv:
   # uv pip install imagesorcery-mcp
   

3. Run the post-installation script: This step is crucial. It downloads the required models
