Imgx vs PixelDojo
A side-by-side look at the Imgx and PixelDojo MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Imgx for multimedia process work as a local process; choose PixelDojo for multimedia process as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.

PixelDojo tools 25
pixeldojo_generateGenerate an image or video from a prompt with any model in the PixelDojo catalog. With no `model`, a prompt runs on seedream-5, which makes still images only. For a video, name seedance-2-5, which works from a prompt alone or a starting image. If a provider refuses the content, retry once on wan-3-0-video (video) or seedream-5 (images), the least-restricted models. For a multi-shot film or a music video synced to a song use pixeldojo_film; to change, move or extend an existing clip use pixeldojo_video. These are the models the PixelDojo studios use; name another only when the user asks for it. References: `image_url`/`image_urls` for stills, `video_url` for a source clip, `image_path`/`image_paths` for absolute local files (uploaded to 24h temp storage first). A clip or an audio track URL with no `model` runs on seedance-2-reference; a named model that cannot read a clip is swapped for it and the result says so, while a named model with no audio input drops the track. Model-specific settings go in `params` alongside an explicit `model`. Returns asset URLs, or a jobId for pixeldojo_status when the job outlasts the 30s wait.pixeldojo_editEdit an existing image with a text instruction. Defaults to wan-2.7-image-edit; pass `model` to pick another edit-capable apiId. Supports up to 9 reference images for multi-image composition. For reference images: pass image_url(s) for hosted URLs or image_path(s) for absolute local file paths (skill uploads to 24h temp storage automatically).pixeldojo_characterGenerate or edit consistent characters across shots. Pass reference_image_urls (up to 9) to lock identity — send every photo of the person you have, since more angles hold the face far better than one. Defaults to seedream-5.pixeldojo_storyboardGenerate one short video clip (a single shot, not a multi-panel storyboard) from a scene brief. A text-only brief runs on veo-3.1-fast unless `model` names another allowed video model. With image_url (reference still) or video_url (source clip) and no `model`, it runs on seedance-2-reference, with the same reference routing as pixeldojo_generate. For a multi-shot film with dialogue and a soundtrack, use pixeldojo_film.pixeldojo_upscaleEnhance an image or video. Magnific (default) supports configurable scale_factor and creativity; face-enhance for portraits; video-upscaler (FlashVSR, up to 4K) for clips — pass video_url plus video_duration in seconds.pixeldojo_captionBurn animated word-by-word captions onto a video with speech, the short-form look for TikTok, Reels and Shorts: the spoken word lights up, placed above the platform buttons. Pass video_url; optional style (pop, highlighter, clean) and highlight_color (#RRGGBB for a brand color). 5 credits.pixeldojo_overlayAdd short-form ad text layouts to a finished video, exact text in the brand color, clear of the TikTok/Reels/Shorts UI: hook (title over the first seconds), callout (lower-third label), review (stars, quote, name), progress_bar, countdown (ticking timer), price_tag (new price, old one struck through), offer ("50% OFF" badge) and end_card (logo, headline, button, web address over the held last frame). Pass video_url plus any of them; one call does all. 2 credits.pixeldojo_audioGenerate audio: speech, multi-character dialogue, sound effects, and background music from one prompt (Seed Audio 1.0 by default; plain text-to-speech available). Voice cloning takes hosted reference clip URLs in audio_urls; local audio files are not accepted. Returns an audio URL, or a jobId for pixeldojo_status.pixeldojo_effectsList PixelDojo's one-click effects: 283 video effects (a photo or two in, a 5 s clip out: AI Hug, Earth Zoom In, AI Dance), 30 photo effects (a photo in, a styled image out: action figure, Ghibli style, sticker, aging filter) and one-job tools (remove a watermark, object or background, headshots, photo restoration, relight, logo, thumbnail and poster makers). Search by words, family or category; each result gives the slug, inputs and credit price. Free. Run one with pixeldojo_effect.pixeldojo_effectRun one of PixelDojo's one-click effects on your photos: the prompt is built in, so pass only the slug from pixeldojo_effects and the photos (image_urls, or image_paths for local files), plus texts for tools that ask for them. Video effects return a 5 s clip (usually handed off; poll with pixeldojo_status), photo effects and tools an image. Costs the credits the listing shows.pixeldojo_librarySearch your Library, newest first. source=media (default): saved media (permanent) and recent API/MCP generations (deleted 1 hour after they finish), as URLs to reuse as references. source=characters: saved Character Studio characters and elements, each usable as @Name in any prompt.pixeldojo_saveSave a generated image or video into the user's My Media library permanently ("save this", "keep it"). Results otherwise expire 1 hour after they finish. Pass the result URL; it is safety-checked before it is kept.- +13 more on the listing page

Imgx has no declared pricing — check the project's own site. PixelDojo has no declared pricing — check the project's own site. If a server needs environment variables such as API keys, define them under the env key in your client's MCP config.
Yes. MCP clients support multiple servers: add imgx and pixeldojo as separate keys in the same mcpServers object, and your assistant will call tools from either one.
