Today is the operative word: we check Pixfaro every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Pixfaro — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Pixfaro do?
It exposes 7 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: edit_image, generate_image, get_balance, list_models, list_templates, render_template and 1 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 →
Is Pixfaro 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 178 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Pixfaro?
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 Pixfaro need an API key?
No. Pixfaro completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 7 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Pixfaro?
It answers our handshake in 178 ms on average, which is faster than 76% 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.
How many people use Pixfaro?
The npm package @pixfaro/mcp was installed 78 times in the last week. Week over week that is -87%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Pixfaro open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
