⚠️ UNOFFICIAL TOOL: This is an independent, community-developed MCP server. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or supported by Google or OpenAI. Use at your own risk.

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for AI image generation supporting multiple providers:

• Antigravity (default) - Google's Gemini 3 Pro Image model
• OpenAI - DALL-E 3

Features

• Multi-Provider Support: Switch between Antigravity and OpenAI with a simple parameter
• Text-to-Image: Generate images from text descriptions
• Image Editing: Modify existing images with text instructions (Antigravity only)
• Multiple Outputs: Generate up to 4 image variations per request (Antigravity only)
• Character Consistency: Session-based generation for consistent characters (Antigravity only)
• Multiple Aspect Ratios: 1:1, 16:9, 9:16, 3:4, 4:3, and more

Installation

Run directly with npx (recommended):

npx artifex-mcp

Or install globally:

npm install -g artifex-mcp

Authentication

Antigravity (Default)

npx artifex-mcp --login

This will:

1. Open your browser for Google OAuth
2. Store credentials securely in ~/.config/artifex-mcp/auth.json

OpenAI

Set the OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable:

export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...

Usage

As an MCP Server

Add to your MCP client configuration:

Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "artifex": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["artifex-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "OPENAI_API_KEY": "sk-..."
      }
    }
  }
}

OpenCode:

{
    "mcp": {
        "artifex": {
            "type": "local",
            "command": ["npx", "artifex-mcp"],
            "enabled": true,
            "env": {
                "OPENAI_API_KEY": "sk-..."
            }
        }
    }
}

Environment Variables

| Variable | Description | Default | |----------|-------------|---------| | DEFAULT_IMAGE_PROVIDER | Default provider to use | antigravity | | DEFAULT_IMAGE_MODEL | Default model for the provider | gemini-3-pro-image | | OPENAI_API_KEY | API key for OpenAI provider | - |

Provider Selection

Use the model parameter with provider:model format:

# Use Antigravity (default)
generate_image({ prompt: "a cat" })

# Use OpenAI DALL-E 3
generate_image({ prompt: "a cat", model: "openai:dall-e-3" })

# Use a specific Antigravity model
generate_image({ prompt: "a cat", model: "antigravity:gemini-3-pro-image" })

Available Tools

generate_image

Generate images from text prompts.

| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description | |-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------| | prompt | string | Yes | - | Image description or editing instruction | | model | string | No | env default | Provider and model in provider:model format | | aspect_ratio | enum | No | "1:1" | 1:1, 16:9, 9:16, 3:4, 4:3, 2:3, 3:2, 4:5, 5:4, 21:9 | | output_path | string | No | cwd | Directory to save images | | file_name | string | No | auto | Custom filename | | input_image | string | No | - | Path to image for editing (Antigravity only) | | count | number | No | 1 | Number of images 1-4 (Antigravity only) | | session_id | string | No | - | For character consistency (Antigravity only) |

Examples:

# Default provider (Antigravity)
Generate a cyberpunk cityscape at night

# Using OpenAI
Generate a cyberpunk cityscape at night, model: openai:dall-e-3

# Multiple images (Antigravity only)
Generate 4 variations of a majestic dragon, aspect ratio 16:9

# Character consistency (Antigravity only)
Create a hero named Luna, session_id: luna

auth_status

Provider Capabilities

| Feature | Antigravity | OpenAI | |---------|-------------|--------| | Text-to-Image | ✅ | ✅ | | Image Editing | ✅ | ❌ | | Multiple Images | ✅ (1-4) | ❌ (1 only) | | Sessions | ✅ | ❌ | | Aspect Ratios | ✅ | ✅ (limited) | | Auth Type | Google OAuth | API Key |

File Locations

| Purpose | Location | |---------|----------| | Credentials | ~/.config/artifex-mcp/auth.json | | Sessions | ~/.cache/artifex-mcp/sessions/ | | Generated Images | Current working directory (or custom path) |

Troubleshooting

"Not authenticated" error (Antigravity)

npx artifex-mcp --login

"OpenAI API key not found" error

Set the environment variable:

export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...

Rate limit exceeded

Wait for the time indicated in the error message. Rate limits are enforced per-account.

Unsupported feature error

Some features are only available on specific providers. For example:

• session_id only works with Antigravity
• input_image (editing) only works with Antigravity
• count > 1 only works with Antigravity
