How to Use the Adobe Firefly MCP in Claude

Q: Can I use my own images with the Adobe Firefly tools in Claude Desktop?

Yes. First, use the uploadimage tool by providing a public URL to your image. Once it's uploaded, you'll get an ID you can pass to other tools like generativefill, removebackground, or generatesimilar.

Q: What's the difference between texttoimage and texttovector?

texttoimage creates raster images (like JPEGs or PNGs) based on your prompt. texttovector generates scalable vector graphics (SVGs), which are better for logos and illustrations that need to be resized without losing quality.

Generate images, vectors, and text effects with Adobe Firefly right inside your Claude Desktop chat.

Generate Images and Vectors from a Prompt

The `text_to_image` tool lets you create up to four images at once directly from a text prompt in Claude Desktop. Just describe what you want to see. For vector graphics, you can use the `text_to_vector` tool to get back an SVG you can use immediately in design software. You can also apply wild styles to plain text using `text_effects`. Give it your text and a prompt like "gold foil balloon letters" and it generates the image. This MCP server handles the connection, you just talk to your agent.

Edit Images with Generative AI

This server isn't just for creating new things. You can upload an image with `upload_image` and then use other tools to modify it. The `remove_background` tool does exactly what it says, giving you a clean cutout. For more complex edits, use `generative_fill` to replace parts of an image or `generative_expand` to extend the canvas in any direction. Claude Desktop shows you the results right in the chat, so you can see if the edit worked before downloading.

Your Claude Desktop Firefly Connection

This MCP Server connects Claude Desktop directly to Adobe Firefly's core features. You don't need to write any code or manage API keys. Just install the server and start giving instructions to your agent. It works with both the native Claude Desktop app and the web version at claude.ai. Need to check which Firefly models are available? Just ask your agent to run `list_models`. It puts Firefly's tools right at your fingertips.
