About Midjourney MCP Server
Connect Midjourney image generation to any AI agent and create stunning visuals through natural conversation. Generate images from text prompts, upscale to high resolution, create variations, blend images, and even reverse-engineer prompts from existing images.
Cursor's Agent mode turns Midjourney into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Midjourney and it fetches, processes, and writes — all in a single agentic loop. 9 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
What you can do
- Text-to-Image — Generate high-quality images from descriptive prompts
- Upscale — Enhance any of the 4 grid images to full resolution
- Variations — Explore creative alternatives based on any generated image
- Blend — Combine 2-5 images into a new composition
- Describe — Reverse-engineer a prompt from any image
- Inpaint — Edit specific regions of images with masks
- Task Monitoring — Track generation progress and retrieve completed images
The Midjourney MCP Server exposes 9 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Cursor in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use Cursor with the Midjourney MCP Server
Cursor AI Code Editor provides unique advantages when paired with Midjourney through the Model Context Protocol.
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP — no copy-pasting from external dashboards
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools
Midjourney + Cursor Use Cases
Practical scenarios where Cursor combined with the Midjourney MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Code generation with live data: ask Cursor to generate a security report module using live DNS and subdomain data fetched through MCP
Automated documentation: have Cursor query your API's tool schemas and generate TypeScript interfaces or OpenAPI specs automatically
Infrastructure-as-code: Cursor can fetch domain configurations and generate corresponding Terraform or CloudFormation templates
Test scaffolding: ask Cursor to pull real API responses via MCP and generate unit test fixtures from actual data
Midjourney MCP Tools for Cursor (9)
These 9 tools become available when you connect Midjourney to Cursor via MCP:
blend
Provide URLs of existing images to blend together. Optionally add a text prompt to guide the blend. Blend multiple images together into one composition
describe
Useful for understanding how to recreate styles and compositions. Generate a text prompt from an image (reverse engineer)
get_task_status
Returns progress percentage, image URLs when ready, and available actions (upscale/variation). Check the status of an image generation task
get_tasks
Useful for monitoring ongoing generations and finding image IDs for upscale/variation. List recent image generation tasks
imagine
The prompt should be in English and can include style modifiers like "--ar 16:9" for aspect ratio, "--v 6" for version, "--s" for stylization. Returns a task ID and thumbnail URL. Use the task ID to check generation progress. Generate an image from text prompt using Midjourney
inpaint
The rest of the image remains unchanged. Edit a specific region of a generated image using a mask
reroll
Useful when none of the initial 4 images are satisfactory. Regenerate 4 new images with the same prompt
upscale
Returns the upscaled image URL. Upscale one of the 4 generated images to higher resolution
variation
Useful for exploring different interpretations of a concept. Create a variation of one of the 4 generated images
Example Prompts for Midjourney in Cursor
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your Cursor agent to start working with Midjourney immediately.
"Generate an image of a cyberpunk city at sunset, 16:9 aspect ratio."
"Upscale image position 2 from the last generation."
"Describe this image and tell me what prompt would create it: https://example.com/art.jpg"
