MCP tools · 3 exposed · ~268 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
convert_image ~206

Convert, resize, crop, rotate, filter, or composite an image with imgcli. Output format is chosen from the output file extension (png/jpg/jpeg/bmp/tga/ppm). Use `filters` for an ffmpeg-style comma-separated chain, e.g. "scale=800:-1,grayscale,gblur=2". Call list_filters for the full catalogue.

NameTypeReqDescription
filtersstringFiltergraph, e.g. "scale=512:-1,grayscale". Omit for a plain format conversion.
inputstringyesPath to the input image file (or a generator like 'testsrc=640x480').
outputstringyesPath to write; the extension picks the format (png/jpg/bmp/tga/ppm).
overwritebooleanOverwrite the output if it exists (default true).
qualityintegerJPEG quality 1-100 (default 90; ignored for non-JPEG).

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

list_filters ~25

List the full imgcli filter catalogue (geometry, colour, convolution, compositing).

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

probe_image ~37

Return the width, height, and channel count of an image without converting it.
