Features

Multi-provider — OpenAI (gpt-image-1.5, gpt-image-1, dall-e-3), Google Gemini (gemini-2.5-flash-image, gemini-3.x previews), SD WebUI (Stable Diffusion / Forge / reForge), and a zero-cost placeholder for testing.

Per-model style metadata — every model carries a style_profile (strengths, prompt grammar, lifecycle); list_providers includes a top-level warnings array for deprecated models. See Model Catalog.

Keyword-based auto-selection — provider="auto" routes by prompt content (text/logo → OpenAI, photoreal/anime → SD WebUI, draft → placeholder).

CDN-style image transforms — image://{id}/view?format=webp&width=512&crop_x=... resizes / re-encodes / crops on demand without re-generating.

Hybrid background tasks — long-running SD generations run with task=True (poll for status); short OpenAI calls stream progress in the foreground.

MCP Apps gallery + viewer — interactive UI surfaces (browse generated images, edit / crop / rotate) for clients that support app: resources.

Production deployment — Docker (multi-arch), .deb/.rpm with hardened systemd, OIDC + bearer auth, persistent EventStore for HTTP session resumability.

What you can do with it

With this server mounted in an MCP client, you can ask:

"Generate a coffee mug product photo on a worn oak table, 16:9, no text." Routes to gpt-image-1.5 for typography-aware photorealism.

"Create three concept-art variations of a cyberpunk alley at dusk." Composes generate_image with provider="sd_webui" and a stylised checkpoint like dreamshaperXL.

"Crop this image to a 1:1 square centred on the subject and resize to 512px." Uses image://{id}/view?width=512&height=512&crop_x=... resource transforms.

"Show me my recent generations." Browses the gallery via the image://list resource and the MCP Apps gallery viewer.

"Save this style as 'cyberpunk-night' so I can apply it to future requests." Uses the style library — markdown briefs the LLM interprets per-provider.
