@qmediat.io/ideogram-mcp
MCP server for the Ideogram V3 API — generate, edit, remix, upscale, and describe images from Claude Code, Claude Desktop, or any MCP client.
Why this server?
- 7 tools — full Ideogram V3 coverage (generate, edit, remix, reframe, replace background, upscale, describe)
- Security-first — SSRF protection, symlink rejection, Content-Type validation, path traversal prevention, Zod response validation (details)
- 2 runtime dependencies —
@modelcontextprotocol/sdk+zod. No axios, no form-data, no HTTP libraries - Native Ideogram API — direct V3 endpoints, not proxied through fal.ai or Replicate
- Production-hardened — retry with exponential backoff, safety filter handling, partial failure resilience
Quick Start
npm install -g @qmediat.io/ideogram-mcp

Security
This server is designed with a zero-trust, minimal-dependency approach:
- SSRF protection — HTTPS-only downloads, hostname allowlist, redirect blocking
- Symlink rejection —
lstat()rejects user-created symlinks before reading - Content-Type validation — downloads must be
image/*, rejecting HTML/JSON error pages - Zod response validation — API responses parsed through schemas, no blind type casts
- Path traversal prevention — extension allowlist +
path.relative()containment check
Full details in SECURITY.md.
