Overview

What is Flickr Mcp Server?

Flickr Mcp Server lets AI assistants see, describe, tag, and manage photos on your Flickr account through the Model Context Protocol. It enables browsing photos and albums, drafting titles/descriptions/tags, checking stats, discovering and submitting to groups, reading and posting comments, and keeping local notes.

How to use Flickr Mcp Server?

Requires Node.js 18+ and a free Flickr API key. Clone the repo, run npm install && npm build, then authorize via npm run setup-auth. Configure your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop) by adding a flickr server entry with the absolute path to dist/index.js and environment variables FLICKR_CONSUMER_KEY, FLICKR_CONSUMER_SECRET, FLICKR_OAUTH_TOKEN, and FLICKR_OAUTH_TOKEN_SECRET.

Key features of Flickr Mcp Server

  • View and filter recent photo uploads
  • Browse and manage albums and group pools
  • Update photo titles, descriptions, and tags
  • Retrieve per-photo and account-wide stats and activity
  • Post and read comments on photos
  • Store local notes in SQLite (never sent to Flickr)
  • Search groups by topic and submit photos to pools

Use cases of Flickr Mcp Server

Frequently asked questions

1

"OAuth signature invalid" – what should I do?

Re-run `npm run setup-auth` to refresh your OAuth tokens.

2

Why doesn't an image display in the AI client?

The server caps images at ~700KB. Very large photos fall back to text-only output with a Flickr URL.

3

Why are stats showing empty results?

For `photo_daily` mode, Flickr only provides data for the last 28 days. Use the `popular` mode for all-time totals instead.

4

I get "Not a member" when adding to a group – what's wrong?

You must join the group on Flickr's website first before submitting photos through this server.

5

The server crashes with a `better-sqlite3` version mismatch error.

Run `npm rebuild better-sqlite3` using the same Node version that runs the server.
