MCP Server for Flux AI Image Generation via AceDataCloud API

Project description

MCP Flux

PyPI version CI License: MIT Python 3.10+

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for AI image generation and editing using Flux through the AceDataCloud platform.

Generate and edit stunning AI images with Flux models (flux-dev, flux-pro, flux-kontext) directly from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client.

Features

  • 🎨 Image Generation — Generate images from text prompts with 6 Flux models
  • ✏️ Image Editing — Edit existing images with context-aware Flux Kontext models
  • 🔄 Task Management — Track async generation tasks and batch status queries
  • 📋 Model Guide — Built-in model selection and prompt writing guidance
  • 🌐 Dual Transport — stdio (local) and HTTP (remote/cloud) modes
  • 🐳 Docker Ready — Containerized with K8s deployment manifests
  • 🔒 Secure — Bearer token auth with per-request isolation in HTTP mode

Quick Start

Install from PyPI

pip install mcp-flux-pro

Configure API Token

Get your API token from AceDataCloud Platform:

export ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN="your_api_token_here"

Run the Server

# stdio mode (for Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.)
mcp-flux-pro

# HTTP mode (for remote/cloud deployment)
mcp-flux-pro --transport http --port 8000

Claude Desktop Integration

Add to your Claude Desktop configuration (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "flux": {
      "command": "mcp-flux-pro",
      "env": {
        "ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN": "your_api_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Or using uvx (no install required):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "flux": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["mcp-flux-pro"],
      "env": {
        "ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN": "your_api_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor Integration

Add to your Cursor MCP configuration (.cursor/mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "flux": {
      "command": "mcp-flux-pro",
      "env": {
        "ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN": "your_api_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

JetBrains IDEs

Install the Flux MCP plugin from the JetBrains Marketplace, or configure manually:

  1. Go to Settings → Tools → AI Assistant → Model Context Protocol (MCP)
  2. Click Add and select HTTP
  3. Paste this configuration:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "flux": {
      "url": "https://flux.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer your_api_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Remote HTTP Mode

For cloud deployment or shared servers:

mcp-flux-pro --transport http --port 8000

Connect from clients using the HTTP endpoint:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "flux": {
      "url": "https://flux.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer your_api_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Docker

# Build
docker build -t mcp-flux .

# Run
docker run -p 8000:8000 mcp-flux

Or using Docker Compose:

docker compose up --build
