Photoshop MCPControl Adobe Photoshop with AI

MCP server for Cursor, Claude Desktop, and natural language — 102 tools, recipe workflows, standalone web UI.

Quick Start

GitHub

Photoshop MCP — AI-driven Photoshop automation

🎯

State-aware agents

get_state, get_preview, and get_capabilities so AI assistants know the document before they act — fewer brittle ExtendScript guesses.

🧩

102 MCP tools

86 atomic tools plus 16 recipe workflows (remove background, export for web, portrait enhance, and more) — each recipe is a single undo step.

🖥️

Standalone web UI

Chat with Claude, GPT, or Gemini and drive Photoshop without an IDE. API keys or Claude Code / Gemini CLI accounts.

⚡

Action Plan (beta)

Plan every Photoshop step in one LLM call, then execute in a single pass — fewer round-trips for multi-step prompts.

🎨

Generative AI & Neural Filters

Firefly generative fill/remove/expand via ExtendScript; optional UXP bridge for Neural Filters (skin smooth, colorize, …).

🌐

Cross-platform

macOS (AppleScript) and Windows (COM). Photoshop 2012–2025 compatibility by design.

Quick start

MCP server (stdio) — Cursor, Claude Desktop, Claude Code, VS Code:

bash

npx -y @alisaitteke/photoshop-mcp

Standalone web UI — local chat + Photoshop, no IDE:

bash

npx -p @alisaitteke/photoshop-mcp photoshop-mcp-ui

Prerequisites: Adobe Photoshop running on Windows or macOS, Node.js 18+.

Standalone UI

Why this exists

Raw ExtendScript from LLMs is brittle: agents waste tokens, layer types break filters, and one failed command leaves the document in an unknown state. Photoshop MCP adds structured errors, recipe tools, and state awareness so natural language can ship pixels.
