Available tools 2

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

generate
generate_upload_url
Generate a URL for remote camera upload. Send this URL to a mobile device to capture and upload a photo. The capture URL can be reused multiple times to upload different photos without generating a new URL. The URL will be in format: https://www.ai.moda/mcp-servers/remote-camera/capture/?url=PRESIGNED_URL
poll
poll_for_upload
Poll S3 bucket waiting for photo upload to complete. Returns a presigned download URL when the file is ready. The same session_id can be used to poll for new uploads multiple times, allowing the capture URL to be reused.

Remote Camera — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Remote Camera do?
It exposes 2 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: generate_upload_url, poll_for_upload. 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 →
Is Remote Camera 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 122 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Remote Camera?
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 Remote Camera need an API key?
No. Remote Camera completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 2 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Remote Camera?
It answers our handshake in 122 ms on average, which is faster than 79% 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.
