This tool allows Claude to speak to OpenAI, and use gpt-image-1 to generate image assets. This can be pretty useful for game or web development, when you need to print individual assets.

Requirements

• Node
• An OpenAI API Key
  • Note that this requires an organization, with ID verification at the moment.

Installation

1. Get an API KEY from the OpenAI website.

2. Export it in your shell as API_KEY.

export API_KEY=sk-proj-....

3. Then, paste this into that same shell:

jq --arg apiKey "$API_KEY" \
'.mcpServers = (.mcpServers // {}) | 
 .mcpServers["mcp-asset-gen"] = {
   type: "stdio",
   command: "npx",
   args: ["mcp-asset-gen"],
   env: { API_KEY: $apiKey }
 }' ~/.claude.json > ~/.claude.tmp && mv ~/.claude.tmp ~/.claude.json

4. You're done! Ask Claude to generate you an image for something, and you'll see

> generate a small logo image that i could use for my arcade game

 I'll generate a logo for your arcade game. Please provide a more specific description of what you'd like to see in the logo (colors, style,
  game theme, etc.) for better results.
