How to Use the imgix (Real-time Image Processing) MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I clear cached images in imgix (Real-time Image Processing) using the Cursor agent?

You ask the agent to run the purge tool on your target URL. Cursor sends the request to the CDN API, removing the cached originals and derivatives in seconds.

Q: Can Cursor automatically find image filenames from my imgix (Real-time Image Processing) source?

Yes, the agent runs the listassets tool to fetch real filenames and paths. Cursor uses this live list to write accurate image tags directly into your components.

Q: How do I configure a new web folder origin for imgix (Real-time Image Processing) in Cursor?

You tell the agent to execute createsource with your origin URL. Cursor registers the folder and returns the newly generated CDN domain details to your workspace.

Q: Can I temporarily stop serving media assets through the editor?

Yes, the disablesource tool takes your selected CDN domain offline. Your agent can check the status of your other domains using listsources to route traffic elsewhere.

Generate code with live asset metadata and run CDN purges directly inside the Cursor agent with this MCP Server.

Perplexity

Inject live asset paths into your code using Cursor

The `list_assets` tool pulls real file paths and sizes from your CDN, giving the Cursor agent actual filenames to work with. This means the editor generates image tags and responsive srcsets using actual files instead of placeholder text. You do not need to double-check your S3 bucket structure while coding. Your MCP Server queries the asset list, matches the files you need, and writes clean, production-ready code using the exact dimensions returned.

Trigger cache purges during local file edits

The `purge` tool on this MCP Server clears the CDN cache the moment you modify an asset in your local workspace. When you save a new version of an asset, the Cursor agent automatically wipes the remote derivative to show the update. This loop speeds up front-end testing. You avoid stale images on your staging site because your editor handles the invalidation behind the scenes as soon as your code references change.

Verify source deployment status while writing APIs

The `get_source` tool pulls live deployment statuses, domain names, and configuration details for your media distribution. When building asset delivery pipelines, your agent reads this data to verify that your target domain is active. If a domain is offline, you can run `enable_source` directly from the chat pane. This keeps your development environment aligned with your live asset delivery infrastructure without leaving the editor.
