What is Together.ai MCP?
Together.ai MCP is a Node.js Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that exposes Together AI's inference endpoints — chat completions, image generation, vision, and embeddings — as tools callable from Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, and any other MCP-compatible client.
How to use Together.ai MCP?
Install Node.js 18+, obtain a Together AI API key, clone the repository, run npm install, copy .env.example to .env, add your API key, then configure the server in your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop) by adding a together-ai entry to the JSON config with the path to index.js and required environment variables.
Key features of Together.ai MCP
- Chat completions with any Together AI text or reasoning model
- Correctly handles reasoning models that write output to non-standard fields
- Image generation via FLUX, SDXL models, saved as PNG files
- Vision analysis using Llama 3.2 Vision or Qwen 2.5 VL
- Embeddings generation for RAG/retrieval pipelines
- Uses direct
fetch calls for vision and image generation to avoid SDK limitations
Use cases of Together.ai MCP
- Use Claude Desktop, Cursor, or VS Code to chat with reasoning models like GLM-5, Qwen3.5, or MiniMax M2.5
- Generate images from text prompts inside your MCP client
- Ask a vision model questions about an image (public URL or local file)
- Create text embeddings for semantic search or RAG without leaving your editor
