MCP Image Compression Overview

InhiblabCore/mcp-image-compression MCP server provides local image compression through MCP. Its image_compression tool accepts image URLs, a quality value from 0 to 100, and an output format, then returns URLs for the compressed images. It supports JPEG, PNG, WebP, and AVIF, with batch and parallel processing described for multiple images. Use it when an agent needs to reduce image size without relying on an online compression service.
