ImageKit DAM

MCP server by ImageKit

Search, upload, organize, tag, share and manage assets in an ImageKit media library.

OAuth sign-in (You sign in with the vendor the first time you connect)Streamable HTTP

Connect to ImageKit DAM

ImageKit DAM needs sign-in. Connect with its own URL:

https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam

Your client opens ImageKit’s sign-in the first time you use it. The token stays between your client and ImageKit.

About

Connects an assistant to the ImageKit digital asset management (DAM) media library. You can search assets, upload files, organize folders, tag and share assets, and manage custom metadata fields and access control. The docs also mention AI tasks such as tagging and metadata extraction on assets.

It runs as a hosted streamable HTTP endpoint at https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam. Users sign in with their ImageKit account through OAuth. The scopes cover reading, writing, updating and deleting media library items, custom metadata fields and cache.

What you can do

  • Search the media library with Lucene queries
  • Upload files to the media library
  • Organize and tag assets
  • Manage custom metadata fields
  • Control access to files and folders
  • Run AI tagging and metadata extraction tasks on assets

Tools

ImageKit DAM lists its tools only after you sign in, so we can’t show them here. Your client lists them once you’re connected.

Example prompts

  • Find all images in my ImageKit library tagged summer-sale.

  • Upload this product photo to the /catalog folder in ImageKit.

  • Add a custom metadata field called Photographer to my media library.

  • Tag every untagged asset in the /blog folder using AI tagging.

Set up

Every client connects to imagekit.io, and ImageKit asks you to sign in the first time. Pick yours; the page remembers your choice.

Claude Code

  1. Run this in a terminal, in your project folder:
claude mcp add --transport http imagekit-dam https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam
  1. Start Claude Code, type /mcp, pick imagekit-dam and choose Authenticate. A browser window opens for the ImageKit sign-in.

Add --scope user to make it available in every project, not just this one.

Claude Desktop

  1. Open Customize → Connectors, click + Add, then Add custom connector.
  2. Name it ImageKit DAM and paste this URL:
https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam
  1. Click Add, then Connect, and sign in when ImageKit asks.

Claude Desktop’s JSON config file only starts local servers. Remote servers go through Connectors, and connectors you add on claude.ai show up here too.

claude.ai

  1. Open the connector form on claude.ai. This button fills in the name and URL for you:
  1. Check that the URL reads https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam and click Add.
  2. Click Connect and sign in when ImageKit asks.

Free plans allow one custom connector. On Team and Enterprise plans an owner adds it under Organization settings → Connectors.

ChatGPT

  1. On chatgpt.com, open Settings → Security and login and turn on Developer mode.
  2. Go to chatgpt.com/plugins and click + to create an app for a remote MCP server.
  3. Paste https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam as the server URL and choose OAuth. ChatGPT sends you to ImageKit to sign in.

Developer mode is available on the web for Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise and Education accounts.

Cursor

Or add it by hand to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (all projects) or .cursor/mcp.json (this project):

mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "imagekit-dam": {
      "url": "https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam"
    }
  }
}

Cursor shows Needs authentication next to the server. Click the button beside it to sign in.

VS Code

Or from a terminal:

code --add-mcp '{"name":"imagekit-dam","type":"http","url":"https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam"}'

Or commit it to the repo in .vscode/mcp.json:

.vscode/mcp.json
{
  "servers": {
    "imagekit-dam": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam"
    }
  }
}

VS Code asks you to sign in the first time the server starts.

Devin Desktop

  1. Add it to ~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json (macOS and Linux) or %APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json (Windows):
mcp_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "imagekit-dam": {
      "serverUrl": "https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam"
    }
  }
}
  1. Refresh the MCP server list in Cascade and sign in when asked.

Devin Desktop is the new name for Windsurf. It reads serverUrl (or url) for remote servers.

Codex

codex mcp add imagekit-dam --url https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam
codex mcp login imagekit-dam

Or edit ~/.codex/config.toml directly:

config.toml
[mcp_servers.imagekit-dam]
url = "https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam"

Gemini CLI

gemini mcp add --transport http imagekit-dam https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam

Then, inside Gemini CLI, run /mcp auth imagekit-dam to sign in.

This adds it to the current project. Add -s user to use it everywhere.

Any client

Most clients accept this shape. Some name the URL field differently: serverUrl in Devin Desktop, httpUrl in Gemini CLI’s settings file.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "imagekit-dam": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam"
    }
  }
}

Zed puts servers under context_servers in its settings. Cline needs "type": "streamableHttp", or it assumes SSE.

Client only starts local servers? Bridge it with npx -y mcp-remote https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam.

Embed

Show ImageKit DAM in a README or on your site. Each embed links to this page, uses the server’s own URL, and sets no cookies. How embeds work

The card, the iframe and the JSON are in English. Add ?lang=it, fr, de or es to their address for another language.

Markdown
[![ImageKit DAM on mcp.tc](https://mcp.tc/i/imagekit-dam/badge.svg)](https://mcp.tc/i/imagekit-dam)
HTML
<a href="https://mcp.tc/i/imagekit-dam"><img src="https://mcp.tc/i/imagekit-dam/badge.svg" alt="ImageKit DAM on mcp.tc" height="20"></a>

It follows the reader’s light or dark mode. Add ?theme=light or ?theme=dark to fix it, or ?style=compact to show the mark without the word.

Website card

HTML
<script src="https://mcp.tc/w/imagekit-dam.js" async></script>

The card appears where the tag is. Add data-theme="dark" or data-size="compact" to the tag to change it. The file holds everything it needs, so it makes no other requests and sets no cookies.

iframe

HTML
<iframe src="https://mcp.tc/embed/imagekit-dam" title="ImageKit DAM on mcp.tc" width="420" height="200" loading="lazy" allow="clipboard-write" style="border:0;border-radius:8px;max-width:100%"></iframe>

Use it on pages that don’t allow scripts. Add ?theme=light or ?theme=dark to the address to fix the colors.

JSON

The listing as data for your own pages and tools: name, tagline, the server’s own URL, tools and the “Add to” links. Any site can read it (CORS is open).

https://mcp.tc/i/imagekit-dam.json

What each field means

AI prompt

Paste this into an AI coding assistant, such as Claude Code or Cursor, and it adds the ImageKit DAM card to your site.

Markdown
Add the mcp.tc card for ImageKit DAM, an MCP server, to my website. It is one static script: no build step, no package to install, no cookies.

Put this tag where the card should appear. The card renders right before it:

```html
<script src="https://mcp.tc/w/imagekit-dam.js" async></script>
```

To show the card somewhere else, put this placeholder there and load the same script once, for example before `</body>`. Keep the link inside: visitors without JavaScript see it.

```html
<div data-mcptc="imagekit-dam"><a href="https://mcp.tc/i/imagekit-dam">ImageKit DAM on mcp.tc</a></div>
```

Options:
- `data-theme="light"` or `"dark"` on the tag or the placeholder fixes the colors. Without it, the card follows the visitor’s light or dark mode.
- `data-size="compact"` gives a smaller card without the tagline.
- The CSS variable `--mcptc-max-width` on the placeholder or a parent sets the width (default `520px`).
- `?lang=` on the script URL sets the card’s language: `en`, `it`, `fr`, `de` or `es`.

If the site has a Content Security Policy, allow `script-src https://mcp.tc` and `img-src data:` (the icon is inline).

For a README or other Markdown docs, use the badge instead:

```markdown

Its tools are behind a sign-in, so we can’t read them. Edits by its owner show up here.

Follow ImageKit DAM and we’ll email you when something changes.

FAQ

Can I paste mcp.tc/i/imagekit-dam into my MCP client?

No. mcp.tc links are pages, not server addresses. Connect with https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam, so your client talks to ImageKit DAM directly. The sign-in token only works there anyway. The quick link is for sharing: it opens this page, with setup steps for every client.

Does ImageKit DAM need an API key or a sign-in?

Yes, you need a ImageKit account. The first time your client connects, it opens ImageKit’s sign-in page. The token goes straight to the server’s own URL, never through mcp.tc.

Is ImageKit DAM a remote or a local server?

Remote. ImageKit hosts it at https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam, and it speaks Streamable HTTP. There’s nothing to install.

What can ImageKit DAM do?

You can search the media library with Lucene queries, upload files to the media library and organize and tag assets.

Which clients can use it?

Any client that supports remote MCP servers: Claude Code, Claude Desktop, claude.ai, ChatGPT in developer mode, Cursor, VS Code, Devin Desktop, Codex, Gemini CLI, Zed and others. The setup steps cover each one.

Does mcp.tc track changes to ImageKit DAM?

Partly. ImageKit DAM’s tools are behind a sign-in, so its History tab shows only edits by its owner. Follow the listing to get an email when it changes.

Who wrote this page?

mcp.tc’s robot read ImageKit DAM’s own metadata (its MCP handshake, tool list and public pages), and an AI model drafted the text from it. A person reviews anything the checks can’t confirm. The text can still be wrong, so if you spot a mistake, use Report this listing on this page.

mcp.tc isn’t affiliated with ImageKit. This page was built from ImageKit DAM’s public metadata, last checked on 7 Oct 2026, and an AI model wrote the description, so it can be wrong. Names and marks belong to their owners. Something off? Report this listing.
