Security Report

6.7
Moderate6.7Moderate Risk

Pixfaro MCP is a well-designed image generation client with strong security fundamentals. Authentication is properly handled via environment variables, credentials are never logged or exposed, and input validation is comprehensive with careful sanitization of untrusted API responses. The code demonstrates mature security practices including URL origin allowlisting, response shape validation, and redaction of sensitive data. Minor code quality observations exist but do not materially impact security. Supply chain analysis found 1 known vulnerability in dependencies (1 critical, 0 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue.

Pixfaro MCP — image generation MCP server for every image model

One MCP connection, one prepaid balance, every major image model — Nano Banana, Gemini today, GPT Image next (visible as "coming soon" in list_models). Pixfaro holds the provider accounts, keys, retries and format differences; your agent just asks for an image.

Works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and any MCP client.

Quickstart (≈1 minute)

  1. Get an API key at pixfaro.com and top up (no subscription).
  2. Add the server to your MCP client config:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pixfaro": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@pixfaro/mcp"],
      "env": { "PIXFARO_KEY": "pf_live_…" }
    }
  }
}
  1. Ask your agent for an image. That's it.

For Claude Code:

claude mcp add pixfaro -e PIXFARO_KEY=pf_live_… -- npx -y @pixfaro/mcp

Remote server (no install, OAuth)

On claude.ai, Claude Desktop, or any client that speaks streamable HTTP, add the remote server instead — no npm, no key in a config file:

https://mcp.pixfaro.com/mcp

The client runs the OAuth flow; you sign in with your Pixfaro account. Clients without OAuth can pass an API key instead: Authorization: Bearer pf_live_….

Tools

ToolWhat it does
generate_imageprompt → hosted image URL (+cost and balance in the reply)
edit_imagenatural-language edit of a previous generation by its img_… id
list_modelsmodels with price, latency, and what each is best for
get_balancecurrent prepaid balance

Replies carry a hosted URL, never base64 — your agent's context stays small.

Both generation tools accept aspect_ratio (e.g. "16:9", "9:16"). Edits keep the source image's shape when you omit it — pass one only to reshape.

CLI

The same package family ships an unscoped CLI for scripts, CI, and pipelines:

export PIXFARO_KEY=pf_live_…
npx pixfaro gen "a lighthouse at night, minimal flat style" -a 16:9 -o cover.png
npx pixfaro models
npx pixfaro balance
npx pixfaro edit img_8f2a… "make the sky darker" -o v2.png

Environment

What this repo is

The thin open client over the Pixfaro API: the MCP server (@pixfaro/mcp) and the pixfaro CLI share one HTTP client. The balance/provider layer lives behind api.pixfaro.com — this code is intentionally small enough to read before you hand it a key.
