What is the Imagedimensions MCP server?

If you already use Imagedimensions, the imagedimensions mcp server is the piece that lets your assistant work with it directly. Audit a web page's images: natural vs rendered sizes, oversized detection, and formats.

What the server does

An MCP server that audits the images on any public web page — natural vs. rendered dimensions, oversized-image detection, and format breakdown — so AI agents (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) can check image performance during development.

Available tools

The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:

  • modern — format share (WebP + AVIF)
  • IMAGEDIMENSIONS_API_BASE — override the API base (default https://imagedimensions.com)
  • Param — Type
  • url — string (required)
  • oversizedThreshold — number (optional)
  • scan_image_dimensions — The scan_image_dimensions tool exposed by this server

Installation

Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client. The configuration blocks on this page cover the common clients.

Where it fits

This sits in the developer tooling group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Imagedimensions's toolset — modern, IMAGEDIMENSIONS_API_BASE, Param and 3 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by Bishop81; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

This entry was verified against Imagedimensions's own documentation before publication; SyncDev keeps the directory reviewed rather than auto-generated.

Worth knowing first

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.

Configuration as documented by the project. Restart the client after saving.

Example prompts to try

  • Use Imagedimensions to modern.
  • Use Imagedimensions to IMAGEDIMENSIONS API BASE.
  • Use Imagedimensions to Param.

Frequently asked questions

It connects Imagedimensions to MCP-compatible AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor, exposing 6 tools (modern, IMAGEDIMENSIONS_API_BASE, Param, and more) that the assistant can call on your behalf. Instead of copying data back and forth by hand, the assistant works with Imagedimensions directly.
