readme

Meme MCP Server

A simple Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for generating memes using the ImgFlip API. This server enables AI models and tools to generate meme images from user prompts.

Tools

The server implements the following a single tool called generateMeme.

The tool accepts the following parameters:

templateNumericId: The numeric ID of the meme template to use.
text0: The text for the first placeholder.
text1: The text for the second placeholder.

Usage

You can configure the meme generator server in your client using the meme-mcp NPM package. Here is an example configuration for Claude Desktop (Settings -> Developer -> Edit Config):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "meme": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "meme-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "IMGFLIP_USERNAME": "<IMGFLIP USERNAME>",
        "IMGFLIP_PASSWORD": "<IMGFLIP PASSWORD>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Note: you need to create a free account on ImgFlip to get your username and password.

Troubleshooting

Sometimes Claude Desktop fails to find the right version of npx (especially if you are using NVM, see this Issue for details). In this case, you can manually install meme-mcp globally and then use it directly.

npm install -g meme-mcp

You can find the path of your node executable by running which node in your terminal. After that your configuration should look like this:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "meme": {
      "command": "/Users/<USERNAME>/.nvm/versions/node/v20.18.2/bin/node",
      "args": ["/Users/<USERNAME>/.nvm/versions/node/v20.18.2/lib/node_modules/meme-mcp/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "IMGFLIP_USERNAME": "<IMGFLIP USERNAME>",
        "IMGFLIP_PASSWORD": "<IMGFLIP PASSWORD>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Example

After configuring Claude Desktop, you need to restart it and then you will see the small hammer icon on the bottom right in the chat input. You can then ask Claude to generate a meme for you.
