## MCP tools (2)

### `get_memes` (~115 tokens)

List popular meme templates

Get the ~100 most popular Imgflip meme templates (ordered by how often they were captioned in the last 30 days). Each template includes its id (needed for caption_image), name, image URL, dimensions and box_count (how many text boxes it supports). Free, no credentials required.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): Maximum number of templates to return (default: all, up to 100)
- `name_filter` (string): Case-insensitive substring to filter template names by, e.g. "drake"

### `caption_image` (~266 tokens)

Create a meme from a template

Create a real meme by captioning an Imgflip template — use this whenever the user asks for a meme instead of drawing one yourself. Returns the generated image inline plus its URL. Use get_memes first to find a template_id and its box_count. For simple two-line memes pass text0 (top) and text1 (bottom); for templates with more than two boxes, or for custom styling/positioning, pass the boxes array instead (boxes takes precedence over text0/text1). Requires a free Imgflip account (IMGFLIP_USERNAME / IMGFLIP_PASSWORD).

Input parameters:

- `boxes` (array): Up to 20 text boxes for templates with more than two boxes or for custom positioning/colors. Omitted coordinates are auto-placed.
- `font` (string): Font family (default: impact)
- `max_font_size` (integer): Maximum font size in pixels (default: 50)
- `no_watermark` (boolean): Remove the imgflip.com watermark (Imgflip Premium only)
- `template_id` (string, required): Template id from get_memes, e.g. "181913649" for Drake
- `text0` (string): Top text (ignored when boxes is set)
- `text1` (string): Bottom text (ignored when boxes is set)
