Project description

Ultimate Gemini MCP Banner

Ultimate Gemini MCP

MCP server for Google's Gemini 3.1 Flash Image — fast image generation with advanced reasoning, 512px–4K resolution, up to 14 reference images, Google Search grounding, and automatic thinking mode.

All generated images include invisible SynthID watermarks for authenticity and provenance tracking.


Features

Gemini 3.1 Flash Image

  • High-Resolution Output: 512px, 1K, 2K, and 4K resolution
  • Advanced Text Rendering: Legible, stylized text in infographics, menus, diagrams, and logos
  • Up to 14 Reference Images: Up to 10 objects + 4 characters for style/character consistency
  • Google Search Grounding: Real-time data (weather, stocks, events, maps)
  • Google Image Search: Visual context from web images — the model can FIND real images of anything
  • Thinking Mode: Configurable reasoning - "minimal" (fast) or "high" (best quality)

This model is different. Unlike traditional image generators that rely solely on training data, Gemini 3.1 Flash has live access to Google Search and Image Search. It can find actual references for products, people, events, or anything that exists online. "Way of Wade 12" → generates the REAL shoe. "Tony Hawk" → finds real photos. Don't over-prompt — let the model cook.

Server Features

  • Batch Processing: Generate multiple images in parallel (up to 8 concurrent)
  • 22 Expert Prompt Templates: MCP slash commands for photography, logos, cinematics, storyboards, and more
  • Flexible Aspect Ratios: 14 options — 1:1, 1:4, 1:8, 2:3, 3:2, 3:4, 4:1, 4:3, 4:5, 5:4, 8:1, 9:16, 16:9, 21:9
  • Configurable via Environment Variables: Output directory, default size, timeouts, and more

Quick Start

Prerequisites

Installation

Using uvx (recommended — no install needed):

uvx ultimate-gemini-mcp

Using pip:

pip install ultimate-gemini-mcp

From source:

git clone https://github.com/anand-92/ultimate-image-gen-mcp
cd ultimate-image-gen-mcp
uv sync

Setup

Claude Desktop

Add to claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ultimate-gemini": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["ultimate-gemini-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "GEMINI_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Config file locations:

  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
  • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

macOS spawn uvx ENOENT error: Use the full path — find it with which uvx, then set "command": "/Users/you/.local/bin/uvx".

Claude Code

claude mcp add ultimate-gemini \
  --env GEMINI_API_KEY=your-api-key \
  -- uvx ultimate-gemini-mcp

Cursor

Add to .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ultimate-gemini": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["ultimate-gemini-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "GEMINI_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Images are saved to ~/gemini_images by default. Add "OUTPUT_DIR": "/your/path" to customize.


Tools

generate_image

Generate an image with Gemini 3.1 Flash Image.

Parameter Type Default Description
prompt string required Text description. Less is more — "Tony Hawk kickflip" beats a long description. The model with search can find references automatically.
aspect_ratio string 1:1 One of: 1:1 1:4 1:8 2:3 3:2 3:4 4:1 4:3 4:5 5:4 8:1 9:16 16:9 21:9
image_size string 2K 512px, 1K, 2K, or 4K
output_format string png png, jpeg, or webp
reference_image_paths list [] Up to 14 local image paths (10 objects + 4 characters)
enable_google_search bool false USE THIS for products, people, events — anything that exists now. The model searches Google for real info.
enable_image_search bool false USE THIS for visual references. The model finds actual images to work from. This is huge — it can reference real photos of anyone/anything.
thinking_level string minimal minimal (fast) or high (best quality)
response_modalities list ["TEXT","IMAGE"] ["TEXT","IMAGE"], ["IMAGE"], or ["TEXT"]

Image size guide:

  • 512px — fastest, lowest cost (0.5K)
  • 1K — fast, good for testing (~1-2 MB)
  • 2K — recommended for most use cases (~3-5 MB)
  • 4K — maximum quality for production assets (~8-15 MB)

batch_generate

Generate multiple images in parallel.

Parameter Type Default Description
prompts list required List of prompt strings (max 8)
aspect_ratio string 1:1 Aspect ratio applied to all images
image_size string 2K Resolution for all images
output_format string png Format for all images
response_modalities list ["TEXT","IMAGE"] Modalities for all images
batch_size int 8 Max concurrent requests
enable_image_search bool false Use Google Image Search for visual context
thinking_level string minimal minimal or high

Troubleshooting

spawn uvx ENOENT — Claude Desktop can't find uvx. Use the full path:

"command": "/Users/yourusername/.local/bin/uvx"

Find it with: which uvx

GEMINI_API_KEY not found — Set the key in your MCP config env block or in a .env file. Get a free key at Google AI Studio.

Content blocked by safety filters — Rephrase the prompt to avoid sensitive content.

Rate limit exceeded — Wait and retry, or upgrade your API quota.

Images not saving — Check OUTPUT_DIR exists and is writable: mkdir -p /your/output/path.
