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.
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings Midjourney data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 9 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.
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 VS Code Copilot in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Midjourney MCP Tools for VS Code Copilot (9)
These 9 tools become available when you connect Midjourney to VS Code Copilot 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
