dcc-mcp-gimp
GIMP 3 adapter for the DCC Model Context Protocol ecosystem.
The adapter uses a small GIMP 3 Python plug-in and a loopback JSON-lines bridge. The MCP server runs in the normal Python environment; GIMP API calls stay inside the plug-in process. It does not expose arbitrary Python or Script-Fu execution.
Install
pip install dcc-mcp-gimp
dcc-mcp-gimp-install
Restart GIMP, run Filters → Development → DCC-MCP GIMP Bridge, then start:
dcc-mcp-gimp
The MCP endpoint defaults to http://127.0.0.1:8767/mcp; the plug-in bridge uses
127.0.0.1:3848. Override the latter with DCC_MCP_GIMP_BRIDGE_PORT before
starting both processes.
Current tools
- Check GIMP bridge status and version.
- List open images with dimensions.
- Inspect the active image.
The first release targets safe session discovery. Image mutation and export will be added only through typed GIMP procedures, not arbitrary source evaluation.
Development
python -m pip install -e ".[dev]"
python -m pytest
python -m ruff check src tests tools
python tools/lint_skills.py
python -m build
python -m twine check dist/*
