Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

AI image generation MCP — generate, bg removal, 4x upscale, or full pro pipeline. USDC/Base.

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.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Design, images & audio
  • You need to fill in: WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY

Install

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

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • You fill in yourself: WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "imagegen": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "forgemesh-imagegen"
      ],
      "env": {
        "WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add imagegen --env WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY=your-value -- npx -y forgemesh-imagegen

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "imagegen": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "forgemesh-imagegen"
      ],
      "env": {
        "WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

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

{
  "servers": {
    "imagegen": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "forgemesh-imagegen"
      ],
      "env": {
        "WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

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.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

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

Values you fill in

  • WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY secret required env
    Base wallet private key for x402 USDC micropayments. Use a dedicated low-balance wallet.

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

Common questions

Is Imagegen MCP 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?

You need to fill in: WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (2.1.1) reached the registry 5 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

README from the maker

Open the README

Copied from the maker’s repo as written. PopNx MCP has not reviewed or endorsed it. HTML, images and scripts are removed. Links lead off this site.

forgemesh-imagegen

MCP server for AI image generation. Generate images, remove backgrounds, upscale to 4x HD — all from a single MCP tool call. Payments handled automatically in USDC on Base mainnet via x402. No API key. No subscription. Pay per image.

Part of the ForgeMesh ecosystem — infrastructure for autonomous agents.


Tools

ToolWhat it doesPrice
generate_imageStandard text-to-image generation$0.25 USDC
generate_cleanGenerate + background removal$0.35 USDC
generate_hdPremium generate + 4x upscale (HD)$0.50 USDC
generate_proTop-tier generate + bg removal + 4x upscale$0.75 USDC
list_presetsList the 58 identity-preserving transform presets (person or pet)$0.005 USDC
transform_imageTransform a photo with a preset while keeping the subject's identity (FLUX Kontext Max)$0.75 USDC

The four generate_* tools accept prompt (required) and aspect (optional: 1:1, 16:9, 9:16, 4:3). transform_image takes a public image_url, a preset id from list_presets, an optional aspect (match_input_image default, or 1:1, 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, 3:4) and wait (default true: polls the free status URL until the PNG is ready, usually 15-30s). Submit only images you have rights to; no minors; the provider safety filter applies.


Install

Claude Desktop

Add to claude_desktop_config.json:

{

"mcpServers": { "forgemesh-imagegen": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "forgemesh-imagegen"], "env": { "WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY": "0x..." } } } }

Claude Code
claude mcp add forgemesh-imagegen -- npx -y forgemesh-imagegen

Then set the env var:

export WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY=0x...

Requirements

  • A dedicated, low-balance Base mainnet wallet private key with USDC (never your primary wallet: the server signs USDC transfers autonomously)
  • $1 USDC ≈ 4 base images, 2 clean, 2 HD, or 1 pro, or 1 transform
  • No other API keys needed

Get USDC on Base: Coinbase → Bridge to Base, or buy directly on Base.


Example usage

generate_image(prompt="a red panda in a spacesuit", aspect="1:1")

→ { image_url: "https://...", prompt: "...", aspect: "1:1", tier: "image" }

generate_clean(prompt="a product photo of a ceramic mug") → { image_url: "https://...", tier: "clean" } // transparent PNG

generate_hd(prompt="a futuristic city at night, cyberpunk style") → { image_url: "https://...", tier: "hd" } // 4096x4096

generate_pro(prompt="a logo mark, geometric eagle") → { image_url: "https://...", tier: "pro" } // transparent + HD

list_presets() → { count: 58, presets: [{ id: "pet-royal", title: "Pet Royalty", subject: "pet", ... }, ...] }

transform_image(image_url="https://example.com/my-dog.jpg", preset="pet-royal") → { job_id: "...", status: "succeeded", preset: "pet-royal", image_url: "https://..." }


How it works

Each tool call makes an HTTP request to the ForgeMesh imagegen service gated by the x402 protocol. If payment is required, the MCP automatically signs and broadcasts a USDC transfer from your wallet on Base mainnet — then retries the request. You see the result, your wallet is charged, no manual steps.

  • Network: Base mainnet (eip155:8453)
  • Token: USDC
  • Protocol: x402
  • The server only ever connects to https://imagegen.coinopai.com; every request has a 60s timeout and a 1 MB response cap; no third-party payment routers or affiliate hops.
