RNV Color MCP

rnv-color-mcp MCP server Mentioned in Awesome MCP Servers

A remote MCP server for a complete color workflow: mix, convert, harmonize, and remember palettes, called in plain language by Claude (or any MCP client), and by anything else that speaks MCP.

Why this exists

The color logic already lived in my desktop suite: a mixer, a palette manager, a picker. Instead of rebuilding it for every new project, I lifted the engine out once and exposed it as a single server. A Claude conversation calls it today; a fashion design app will call the same backend tomorrow. Build the engine once, let both consume it.

Underneath, it's a small thesis about working with LLMs: a model is great at deciding what you want and terrible at exact arithmetic. So the model picks the tool and the intent, and the tool owns the precise values. The server resolves or it refuses; it never guesses a color.

What it does

Tool	What it does
mix_colors	Blend up to 12 colors. Modes: rgb, hsv, lab (digital) and paint (Kubelka-Munk pigment physics), ryb (artist's wheel), cmy (subtractive).
convert_color	Convert between hex, rgb, hsv, hsl, lab.
generate_harmony	complementary, analogous, triadic, split-complementary, tetradic/square, monochromatic, compound.
color_difference	Perceptual difference (Delta-E, CIEDE2000 or CIE76) between two colors.
contrast_check	WCAG contrast ratio plus AA/AAA pass/fail for accessible text.
transform_text	11 exact case transforms (UPPERCASE, camelCase, snake_case, …).
save_palette / list_palettes / get_palette	Name a palette, recall it later. Persists across restarts.

Every color input accepts a hex (#d2bc93), a CSS name (red), an RNV brand name (brand gold, near-black), or a saved-palette reference (Spring line, or Spring line:2 for its second swatch). Brand names win over CSS names on collision; css:gold forces the universal one.

Connect in 30 seconds

This is a hosted server, so there's nothing to install. In Claude: Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector, then paste:

https://rnvizion-rnv-color-mcp.hf.space/mcp

Leave auth blank, add it, then toggle it on in a chat with the + menu.

Try it

Once connected, just talk:

"Save a palette named Spring line: near-black and brand gold." "Pull my Spring line palette and give me three complementary accents for outerwear." "Mix paint-red and paint-blue like real pigment."

The first call saves; the second composes get_palette → generate_harmony; the third runs the Kubelka-Munk paint model, so the blend darkens the way mixed pigment actually does, not the way averaged light does.

Run it yourself

pip install -r requirements.txt
python server.py          # Streamable HTTP on $PORT (default 7860)
python tests/server_test.py   # exercises all 9 tools in-process

Set HF_TOKEN to write palettes through to a private Hugging Face Dataset for durable storage.

Notes

• One brand source of truth. Brand colors live in engine/brand.py; the resolver imports them, so a brand value is defined in exactly one place. See BRAND_COLORS.md.
• Engine is dependency-free. The color math, harmony, and text logic are pure standard library, lifted Qt-free from the desktop apps. Only the server layer needs fastmcp.
• Honest by design. An unknown color name is refused, not guessed.
