Install

How do I install the Jinero MCP server?

Jinero is a hosted endpoint at https://jinero.online/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 22 exposed · ~2,283 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
check_contrast ~72

Check the WCAG contrast ratio between a foreground and background color, with AA/AAA pass/fail for normal and large text.

NameTypeReqDescription

recognize_font ~278

Identify which font is used in an image. Powered by our OWN CNN embedding model, trained on the jinero font catalog — it matches fonts by visual shape/style, so it needs NO OCR and NO text (works for Latin and Cyrillic). Send a tight crop of one line of text as either image_url (public URL) or image_base64 (base64/data-URI, e.g. a local screenshot). The image is processed in memory and deleted immediately — never stored. Returns the most visually similar font families with scores. Typically 0.3-1.7 s (an OCR-assisted rerank of top candidates engages when retrieval is uncertain). Rate limit: 5 calls/min per IP (model inference is compute-heavy).

NameTypeReqDescription

Common questions

What is the Jinero MCP server?

Jinero is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as online.jinero/jinero. AI-agent design tools: fonts, font recognition, palettes, color naming, contrast, code, SVG, CSS. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://jinero.online/mcp).

Is the Jinero MCP server safe to use?

Jinero scores 81 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the Jinero MCP server expose?

Jinero exposes 22 tools: search_fonts, recognize_font, get_font, get_font_files, get_fonts_css, and 17 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 2,283 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the Jinero MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to Jinero without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

Is the Jinero MCP server still maintained?

Jinero is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
