Photoshop MCP Gives AI Assistants a State-Aware Grip on Photoshop
An unofficial MCP server lets Cursor, Claude Desktop, and other AI interfaces control Adobe Photoshop through 118 tools and recipe workflows.
Field notes
The server combines document inspection with Photoshop actions, allowing an AI client to query state before changing layers or applying filters. The homepage lists 102 atomic tools and 16 recipe workflows, including background removal, web export, and portrait enhancement; recipes are described as single undo steps. A local standalone interface can connect Claude, GPT, or Gemini to Photoshop without an IDE, while the documented installation requires Node.js 18+ and a running Photoshop instance.
