remove_backgroundRemove the background from an image.2 findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "remove_background" says "remove": a word for removing or ending something.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- The server marks it not destructive (destructiveHint: false), but an annotation never lowers a class.

- Warn

  What this check looks for
Description, as the server wrote it
Remove the background from an image. Uses BiRefNet segmentation to precisely separate foreground from background. Returns a base64-encoded image with transparent background (PNG) or white background (WebP). Sub-500ms latency on GPU. Args: image_base64: Base64-encoded image data (PNG, JPEG, or WebP). output_format: Output format -- 'png' (with transparency) or 'webp'. Returns: dict with keys: - image_base64 (str): Base64-encoded result image - format (str): Output image format - original_size (dict): Original width and height - processing_ms (int): Processing time in milliseconds
Annotations the server declares
- title: Remove Background
- readOnlyHint: true
- destructiveHint: false
- idempotentHint: true
- openWorldHint: true

Changes things 3Creates or changes something that can be changed back.Claude Code: ask

check_image_serviceCheck health status of Image API services and loaded models.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
Description, as the server wrote it
Check health status of Image API services and loaded models. Returns: dict with keys: - status (str): 'healthy' or error state - models (dict): Loaded model status per capability - version (str): API version
Annotations the server declares
- title: Check Image Service
- readOnlyHint: true
- destructiveHint: false
- idempotentHint: true
- openWorldHint: true
restore_faceRestore and enhance faces in an image using GFPGAN.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
Description, as the server wrote it
Restore and enhance faces in an image using GFPGAN. Detects all faces via RetinaFace, restores quality (fixes blur, noise, compression artifacts), and pastes them back. Optionally enhances the background using Real-ESRGAN. GPU-accelerated, sub-3s latency. Args: image_base64: Base64-encoded image data containing faces (PNG, JPEG, WebP). upscale: Output upscale factor -- 1 to 4 (default: 2). enhance_background: Whether to enhance background with Real-ESRGAN (default: true). Returns: dict with keys: - image (str): Base64-encoded restored image - format (str): Output image format - width (int): Output width - height (int): Output height - upscale (int): Scale factor applied - processing_time_ms (float): Processing time in milliseconds
Annotations the server declares
- title: Restore Face
- readOnlyHint: true
- destructiveHint: false
- idempotentHint: true
- openWorldHint: true
upscale_imageUpscale image resolution using Real-ESRGAN.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
Description, as the server wrote it
Upscale image resolution using Real-ESRGAN. Enhances image resolution by 2x or 4x using GPU-accelerated Real-ESRGAN super-resolution. Processes in tiles (256x256) to manage VRAM. Maximum output dimension: 8192x8192. Args: image_base64: Base64-encoded image data (PNG, JPEG, or WebP). scale: Upscale factor -- 2 or 4 (default: 4). Returns: dict with keys: - image (str): Base64-encoded upscaled image - format (str): Output image format - width (int): Output width - height (int): Output height - scale (int): Scale factor applied - processing_time_ms (float): Processing time in milliseconds
Annotations the server declares
- title: Upscale Image
- readOnlyHint: true
- destructiveHint: false
- idempotentHint: true
- openWorldHint: true

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.

Install

Pinned to version 1.1.0. Values in angle brackets are yours to fill in.

claude mcp add --transport http image-tools https://apim-ai-apis.azure-api.net/mcp/image/mcp

Run in a terminal.

Claude Code permissions

Allow the reads, ask before a change, deny the deletes. Paste into .claude/settings.json.

Tools that only read are allowed, tools that change things ask first, tools that delete or cancel are denied. It assumes the server is installed as image-tools. Review it before you use it.

Keep track

Get told when this server's tools change: a new tool, a new description, a new class.

Anlyon alternative

4 of these tools change something. Run those as governed actions.

Declare what an action changes, and Anlyon puts it under a shared limit, binds every approval to the exact request, and grades the outcome. It works on any HTTPS API you can describe as an action.

Anlyon does not run, proxy or govern this MCP server. A tool your own code calls directly is not routed through Anlyon and is not governed by it.
