Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Social cards and OG images from designed templates: card from a URL, presets, meta tags, link checks

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{

ChatGPT connects only to servers on the internet:

  1. Open ChatGPT on the web → Settings → Connectors (Apps)
  2. Press Create or Add (some plans need Developer mode under Advanced first)
  3. Paste the address below, give it a name and save
  4. If it asks you to sign in, sign in with the maker

Menu names can differ slightly by plan and over time.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is betterimage.io safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.2.0) reached the registry 42 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

betterimage.io MCP server

Social cards and OG images for your AI assistant. Give Claude, Cursor, VS Code or any MCP client a page URL and get back a link-preview card on a design picked to fit the page; browse 100 starter designs, preview them with your own text, check how a link previews on X, LinkedIn, Slack and Discord, generate Open Graph and Twitter tags, and with an account save templates, render clean images and get signed og:image URLs that need no hosting.

Every image is rendered from a designed template by a deterministic renderer: the text changes, layout, fonts and colours stay on-brand. No generative image model is involved.

This repository holds the public distribution files for the hosted server (install manifests, registry metadata). The server itself runs at https://betterimage.io/mcp and is documented at https://betterimage.io/mcp.

Tools

No account needed:

  • card_from_url: a social card for an existing page, in one call. Fetches the page like a crawler, picks the design that fits it, returns the image (watermarked preview).
  • list_presets: the 100 starter designs with key, size, categories and preview image.
  • preview_card: render a preset with your text (watermarked preview, no quota).
  • check_link_preview: what X, Facebook, LinkedIn, Slack and Discord will show for a URL, with concrete fixes.
  • generate_meta_tags: the complete block with Open Graph and Twitter tags.

With an account (OAuth or API key):

  • list_templates, save_template: your saved designs.
  • render_card: a clean PNG from a saved template (paid plans; watermarked on the free tier).
  • og_image_url: a signed og:image URL rendered on first fetch and cached at the edge, so every page gets its own card with no hosting.
  • get_usage: plan, watermark status and monthly quota.

Every render tool's fields object also takes the card's pictures by URL - image_url, image2_url, logo_url and background_url - fetched server-side and drawn in the slot the design already lays out. That is what turns one saved template into a whole catalogue: one card per product, same colours, fonts and crop framing. PNG, JPEG or WebP up to 5 MB, decided by the bytes rather than the URL; the fetch is SSRF-hardened and a URL pointing back at betterimage.io is refused.

Every tool carries a title and readOnlyHint/destructiveHint annotations; the two write tools are save_template and render_card.

Registries

  • Official MCP Registry: io.betterimage/betterimage (server.json in this repo)
  • Smithery: @matfun93/betterimage

Cursor plugin

.cursor-plugin/plugin.json and mcp.json make this repository installable as a Cursor plugin; the plugin only registers the hosted server.

In JavaScript

For code rather than an assistant, @betterimage/cards builds the same signed image URLs from Node, Bun, Deno or an edge runtime, with no dependencies.
