Available tools 20

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

browse
browse_by_category
Get a category and its featured images. Categories group related tags (e.g. "charts", "memes", "lightning-network").
browse_by_tag
Browse images for a specific tag. Returns the tag profile (description, stats) and optionally a paginated list of images tagged with it.
browse_images
Browse and filter the image gallery without a search query. Useful for discovering content by tag, trending, or recent uploads.
tag
get_tag_profile
Get the profile for a tag (description, image count, total zaps, related tags) without fetching any images. Use browse_by_tag to also retrieve images.
tag_autocomplete
Suggest tag slugs matching a prefix. Use this to verify a tag exists before filtering by it, or to discover related tags. Prefix must be ≥ 2 characters.
categories
list_categories
List all available image categories. Use this to discover what categories exist before calling browse_by_category.
cite
cite_image
Generate canonical attribution blocks for one or more MemeStack images. Returns markdown, HTML, and plain-text citation strings ready to paste into your output, plus a combined block for citing multiple images at once.
generate
generate_meme
Generate a new image from a text prompt using AI (Grok Imagine). Paid tool — billed per call via the agent payment rails (x402/L402); not covered by any free quota. Generation runs asynchronously on the server and this call polls until it completes, up to ~90 seconds. If you get a "still running" error, call the tool again with the SAME payment proof to resume polling — you will never be charged twice for one payment. Note for x402 clients: "quality" mode (~$0.15) exceeds the agents-SDK default per-call cap of $0.10 — raise maxPaymentValue in withX402Client to use it.
image
get_image
Get full metadata for a specific image by ID, including caption, alt text, tags, OCR text, zap stats, and URLs.
images
search_images
Search the MemeStack image gallery. Runs semantic AI and keyword matching in parallel and merges results. Returns images with captions, tags, zap stats, and URLs.
leaderboard
get_leaderboard
Get top-ranked images by zaps received, or top zappers by amount zapped, over a time period.
meme
find_meme_for_text
Find a meme that captures a vibe, idea, or concept. Returns ready-to-embed images with citation blocks. Use this when writing posts, articles, or social content and you need a meme to illustrate a point.
mutation
get_mutation_group
Get all variants of a meme template tracked on MemeStack. Returns the dominant image plus every variant in the same mutation group, with citation blocks for each. Use this to research how a meme has evolved or to find variants of a known image.
popular
popular_tags
List the most-used tags on MemeStack by all-time usage count. (Time-period filtering is not yet supported — tag usage is currently counted across the full lifetime of each tag.)
related
find_related
Find semantically related images using AI embedding similarity. Returns images with similar meaning/topic.
reverse
reverse_image_search
Find MemeStack images that look visually similar to a given image. Accepts an HTTPS image URL or a `data:image/...;base64,...` URL for bytes pasted into agent context. Returns visually-similar matches via perceptual-hash (dHash) hamming distance, with citation blocks. Heavily rate-limited (10/min/IP) since each call hashes the input.
similar
find_similar
Find visually similar images using perceptual hash matching. Returns images that look alike.
submit
submit_image
Submit an image to the MemeStack review queue. Paid tool — 100 sats (or USDC equivalent) per submission via the agent payment rails (x402/L402); no account or API key. IMPORTANT: there is NO refund if moderation rejects the submission (duplicate, nsfw/spam, low quality) — the fee is the anti-spam mechanism. Accepted images await human review before publication. Accepts an HTTPS image URL or a data:image/...;base64 URL (JPEG/PNG/WebP, max 8MB). Optional caption/tags/attribution are hints shown to the AI tagger and moderators — never published verbatim. If the call fails or times out, retry with the SAME payment proof to resume — one payment delivers at most one submission and is never charged twice (up to 10 delivery attempts per payment; a corrected image_url is allowed while no submission has been created yet). Note for x402 clients: 100 sats exceeds the agents-SDK default per-call cap of $0.10 whenever BTC trades above $100k — raise maxPaymentValue in withX402Client if payment is refused client-side.
text
search_text_in_image
Search for images by the text written or printed in them (OCR). Different from regular search — only matches the text_in_image field, not captions or tags. Use this to find screenshots of specific quotes, signs, watermarks, or memes with specific embedded text.
user
get_user_profile
Get a user's public profile including display name, stats, and avatar info.

MemeStack — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can MemeStack do?
It exposes 20 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: browse_by_category, browse_by_tag, browse_images, cite_image, find_meme_for_text, find_related and 14 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
What is MemeStack mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around browse and tag. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.
Is MemeStack working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 91 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect MemeStack?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does MemeStack need an API key?
No. MemeStack completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 20 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is MemeStack?
It answers our handshake in 91 ms on average, which is faster than 86% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
