Which MCP servers are Atelier Photos's own, from the official registry and from asking its own domain, whether they answer, and what they offer. A program checked each of these, nobody copied them from a product page.

Worth a look

  • Tools that change data, on a server that answers without a sign-in: create_checkout

A program checks the server once a day: initialize and tools/list, no model. Tokens are the definitions' length at about four characters a token. The grade averages six checks of every tool's name, description, schema and annotations; it says how well the tools are described, not whether they work. The score weighs what was measured and nothing else: answering (25%), doing the product's job (25%), definitions (20%), context (10%), use (10%) and how readily a client connects (10%). A part that was not measured is left out, and a hidden instruction caps the score at 40. The state of vendors' MCP servers: method and numbers →

  • search_images

    Find images for sale by description, mood, colour or subject — a plain description of the feeling or scene works as well as a keyword, so pass what the person actually said. Give target_width and target_height when the image is destined…

  • get_image

    Everything known about a single listing: its description, keywords, price in credits and money, the license it sells under, and a preview. Use after search_images when the person wants a closer look at one option.

  • list_collections

    The collections available in the store, with how many images are in each. Use for browsing when there is no particular search in mind; prefer search_images when the person has described what they want.

  • get_licence

    The full terms an image is sold under: what the buyer may and may not do with it. Read this before recommending a purchase, and whenever the person asks what they are allowed to do with an image. "personal" (the default) is what credits…

  • unlock_collection

    Open a PRIVATE collection to the signed-in buyer, using the address and access code its photographer gave them — for example a wedding or client gallery whose pictures are also for sale. Afterwards search_images, get_image and…

  • get_account

    The signed-in buyer: their credit balance, subscription status, how many images they already own, and whether a free trial is still available. Call this before proposing a purchase, so you know what they can already afford. Requires…

  • start_trial

    Give the signed-in buyer 3 credits free, once per email address, ever, and never to an account that has paid here. Offer it when get_account says trial_available, someone wants an image, has no credits and has not tried the store before…

  • create_checkout

    Return a payment link for the person to open in a browser: either a subscription plan, or a single image bought outright (only where price.card_available is true) — or that image's commercial license, with licence=commercial, where…

  • fulfil_image

    Deliver an image to the signed-in buyer, spending the image's price in credits (price.credits in search_images and get_image — often 1, sometimes more) if they do not already own it. Credits buy the personal license only; the commercial…

  • list_entitlements

    Everything the signed-in buyer has bought, newest first. Re-downloading any of them with fulfil_image costs nothing. Pass include_previews: true whenever the person wants to see their library: small pictures (at most 12 per page) without…

How to connect

Add the server to your MCP client config. Claude Desktop, Cursor and most other clients read this shape:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "store": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://store.atelierphotos.app/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Add it

Claude Code, in a terminal

claude mcp add --transport http atelierphotos https://store.atelierphotos.app/api/mcp

Add to CursorAdd to VS Code

claude.ai, ChatGPT and other clients: add https://store.atelierphotos.app/api/mcp as a custom connector in the settings.

Each line is something a program found when it went looking: the registry entry, the server's own answer, a spec that parses. A missing line means we did not find it, not that it does not exist.
