The package declares OPENAI_API_KEY (required): OpenAI API key with image generation access; MCP_WORKSPACE_PATH: Workspace directory for saving generated images; OPENAI_IMAGE_MODEL: Override the default OpenAI image model identifier; OPENAI_IMAGE_REQUEST_TIMEOUT_MS: Outbound HTTP request timeout in milliseconds (max 1800000); MCP_ALLOWED_SYMLINK_ROOTS: JSON array of absolute paths the connector may read through (and write generated images through) in-workspace symlinks that resolve into them. Mirrors the host's built-in file-tool declared-Space roots. Malformed or partially-malformed values fail closed to workspace-only. Optional; standalone users omit it.; MCP_HTTP_PORT: When set, serve MCP over HTTP on this port bound to 127.0.0.1 (loopback only) instead of stdio.
