The Face Analysis MCP server

Which MCP servers are The Face Analysis'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.

Whose server it is
  • Registry namecom.thefaceanalysis/face-analysisverified in the MCP registry

The registry name sits under thefaceanalysis.com. The registry only lets a publisher use that namespace after proving control of the domain through DNS or HTTP.

On 2026-10-27 the server answered initialize and tools/list without a sign-in. First answer in 622 ms.

Said by rules from the measurements above. The likely first call is a model's pick from the tool list; read its description before relying on it.

What an agent can do with it

  • not sure · measure facial proportions from a single photo in the browser
  • not sure · find your face shape from three facial ratios
  • cannot · preview styling changes on your own photo

Each of the product's use cases, put to Jev against this server's tool list: can an agent do it with these tools?

Worth a look

None of the five warning signs in these definitions.

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 →

  • get_reference_statistics

    Percentiles (p10, p25, median, p75, p90, min, max) of facial measurements from 102 adult faces (49 women, 53 men) of the Face Research Lab London Set, measured with a 478-point MediaPipe landmarker. Measures: composite score, symmetry…

  • list_face_types

    Lists the types the site's detectors use, with slug, name, page URL and how many of the 102 reference faces each type covered. The split shows how the detector divides these faces, not how common a type is in a population.

  • get_face_type

    Definition and how the type is measured from a front photo (the exact threshold rule), plus its page URL. Example: category 'face', slug 'oval'.

  • classify_face_shape

    Runs the same seven-rule face shape classifier as thefaceanalysis.com/face-shape-detector on four distances (any consistent unit: pixels, mm or landmark units). Returns the shape, the rule that matched and the four ratios. It does not…

  • get_methodology

    How the numbers are made: the landmark model, every classification threshold, how the 1-10 score is built, and how it correlated with 2,513 human raters on the same faces (it did not predict them). Includes the method change history.

  • get_citation

    Citation text, license (CC BY 4.0 for the aggregate numbers) and the source photo set. Use when quoting a number.

  • get_embed_snippet

    HTML a website owner can paste to add the free face shape finder (it measures the visitor's photo in their browser, no sign-up). Includes the visible credit link the terms ask for.

How to connect

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "face-analysis": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.thefaceanalysis.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Add it

Claude Code, in a terminal

claude mcp add --transport http thefaceanalysis https://mcp.thefaceanalysis.com/mcp

Add to CursorAdd to VS Code

claude.ai, ChatGPT and other clients: add https://mcp.thefaceanalysis.com/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.
