Overview

What is Illustrator MCP Server?

Illustrator MCP Server is a bridge that lets AI bots send JavaScript scripts directly to Adobe Illustrator on macOS and inspect the results. It is designed for users who need to programmatically generate or manipulate Illustrator documents via natural language prompts.

How to use Illustrator MCP Server?

Install the server in a directory, then configure it in your Claude Desktop configuration file (~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json) by adding an entry under mcpServers that runs the server with uv pointing to that directory.

Key features of Illustrator MCP Server

  • Sends JavaScript scripts directly to Adobe Illustrator.
  • Retrieves and displays the script output.
  • Relies on AppleScript for macOS‑only operation.
  • Tested with Claude Desktop integration.

Use cases of Illustrator MCP Server

  • Generate complex vector artwork automatically from a text description.
  • Batch‑process design elements without manual scripting.
  • Prototype layouts by asking a bot to run Illustrator commands.

Frequently asked questions

1

What operating systems are supported?

Only macOS, because the server depends on AppleScript to communicate with Illustrator.

2

Does it work with any MCP client?

The author has only tested it with Claude Desktop; compatibility with other clients is not guaranteed.

3

What runtime does it require?

The server is launched with `uv` (Python package manager). The underlying scripts are JavaScript, which Illustrator natively supports.

4

How are scripts sent to Illustrator?

The server wraps JavaScript commands in AppleScript calls that execute inside Adobe Illustrator.

5

Can I use it on Windows?

No. The AppleScript dependency makes it exclusive to macOS.
