Booru Pictag Get

⚠️ 纯 AI 生成声明 | Pure AI-Generated Notice — 详见 AIGC_NOTICE.md

An MCP server that searches booru image boards (Danbooru / AIBooru / e621 / Gelbooru / Rule34) and cleans their tags into ready-to-use AI-art prompts for Stable Diffusion / Illustrious / Pony / SDXL and any booru-tag-driven model.

This is a Python port + MCP integration of booru-prompt-gallery by Mexes-GM (MIT). The prompt-cleaning pipeline — tag extraction, multi-subject guard, smart tag combination, redundancy folding, category splitting, background modes — is a 1:1 port of the original TypeScript modules. Wrapped as 4 callable MCP tools, no Web UI, no Supabase/Redis/Cloudflare deps. See AIGC_NOTICE.md for the full derivation & attribution.

Install

Option A — local path

Clone, then point uvx at the local checkout:

git clone https://github.com/echo-xianyu/Booru-Pictag-Get-MCP.git
cd Booru-Pictag-Get-MCP
uvx --from . booru-pictag-get-mcp

Option B — cloud / direct from GitHub

uvx --from "git+https://github.com/echo-xianyu/Booru-Pictag-Get-MCP" booru-pictag-get-mcp

HTTP/2 extra (recommended — required for e621)

uvx --from . --with h2 booru-pictag-get-mcp

e621's TLS stack frequently errors out on HTTP/1.1 keep-alive. The HTTP client auto-detects h2 and falls back to HTTP/1.1 if absent.

Configure (opencode / any MCP client)

{
  "mcp": {
    "booru-pictag-get": {
      "command": "uvx",
      // Option A — local:
      "args": ["--from", "E:\\MCP\\booru-pictag-get-mcp", "booru-pictag-get-mcp"],
      // Option B — cloud (no checkout on disk):
      // "args": ["--from", "git+https://github.com/echo-xianyu/Booru-Pictag-Get-MCP", "booru-pictag-get-mcp"],
      // HTTP/2 for e621 — prepend "--with", "h2" to args above.
      "environment": {
        "BOORU_DEFAULT_PROVIDER": "danbooru",
        "DANBOORU_USERNAME_APIKEY": "youruser:yourkey",    // optional, raises rate limit
        "GELBOORU_USER_ID": "<your_user_id>",             // required by Gelbooru since 2025-08
        "GELBOORU_API_KEY": "<your_api_key>",
        "RULE34_USER_ID": "<your_user_id>",               // required by Rule34 since 2025-08
        "RULE34_API_KEY": "<your_api_key>"
      }
    }
  }
}

API key policy (Aug 2025): Danbooru, AIBooru, and e621 work with no key. Gelbooru and Rule34 tightened auth and now require keys. Without them, those two providers return 401; the others keep working.

Tools

Each tool's description in tools/list carries full search-semantics guidance:

• Booru search is tag-based AND, not keyword search. Prefer a single tag (hatsune_miku) over stacking (hatsune_miku blue_hair smile), which usually returns 0 posts.
• Multi-word tags use underscore: blue_hair, never blue hair.
• Don't write natural-language queries ("a girl with blue hair sitting in a classroom"); translate to booru tags first via autocomplete_tags.

Scope & design choices

• Pure Python — no Supabase / Redis / Cloudflare / Vercel. Endpoints are public booru APIs; no proprietary backend.
• Tag-conflict rules are off by default in the prompt pipeline (mirrors the original cleanPrompt.ts, which never called tag-conflicts.ts). The 180+ rules were authored assuming a single subject — enabling them by default would mangle legitimate multi-character prompts (e.g. 1girl+1boy sex scenes, smile+crying bittersweet scenes, long_hair+short_hair two-character shots). The resolver remains callable via booru_mcp.core.tag_conflicts.resolve_conflicts() for explicit opt-in.
• optimize_tags has a multi-subject guard: when the prompt contains multi-character markers (2girls / 2boys / multiple_* / couple / group / duo …), it skips the hair-length / breast-size / eye-color "keep best per hierarchy" pick and the shared-noun tag combination — so two characters with different features survive intact.
• Tag categories for Gelbooru/Rule34 come from a static data/tag_categories.json dictionary (one-shot dump from Danbooru's public tags.json, generated by scripts/dump_tag_categories.py) with a keyword-classifier fallback. No external database at runtime.
• Tag-conflict rules are overridable via data/tag_conflicts_overrides.json (additive — overrides can only widen a built-in rule, never narrow it). See data/tag_conflicts_overrides.example.json. Audit current rules with python scripts/inspect_tag_conflicts.py --builtin.
