Frequently asked questions

1

What does the server do?

It provides a single MCP tool, `generate-image`, that takes a text prompt and returns an image generated by OpenAI’s DALL‑E.

2

What are the system requirements?

Go 1.19 or higher, an OpenAI API key, and Claude Desktop (for testing). The server needs network access to the OpenAI API.

3

Where are generated images saved?

The save location is controlled by the `DEFAULT_DOWNLOAD_PATH` environment variable. If not set, the server handles default locations automatically.

4

How do I configure the server for Claude Desktop?

Add a JSON entry to `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` with the server binary path and environment variables for `OPENAI_API_KEY` and `DEFAULT_DOWNLOAD_PATH`.

5

What transport does the server use?

As an MCP server, it communicates via stdio transport (the standard input/output of the process). No details about alternative transports or authentication beyond the API key are provided.
