What is exif-mcp?

exif-mcp is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables LLMs to read image metadata on-demand, entirely offline. Built with TypeScript and powered by the exifr library, it parses metadata from common image formats without relying on any external tools, making it efficient and secure.

How to use exif-mcp?

Install by cloning the repository, running npm install, and building with npm run build. For use with Claude Desktop, add an entry to claude_desktop_config.json with command: "node" and args: ["/path/to/exif-mcp/dist/server.js"]. The server can also be started with npm start or run in development mode with npm run dev. It uses StdioServerTransport and is compatible with any MCP client that supports STDIO transport.
