About Uploadcare MCP Server
Connect your Uploadcare account to any AI agent to fully manage your file handling and CDN media infrastructure via natural conversation.
The OpenAI Agents SDK auto-discovers all 10 tools from Uploadcare through native MCP integration. Build agents with built-in guardrails, tracing, and handoff patterns. chain multiple agents where one queries Uploadcare, another analyzes results, and a third generates reports, all orchestrated through Vinkius.
What you can do
- File Management — List uploaded assets, retrieve specific file technical metadata (like dimensions and CDN URLs), and manage permanent storage states.
- Bulk Operations — Efficiently batch store or batch delete multiple temporary or permanent files in a single operation.
- File Transport — Copy existing files manually to local or remote storage targets, directly through your AI agent.
- Groups & Collections — List immutable file collections (groups) and inspect which individual files are contained within them.
- Project Analytics — Retrieve your Uploadcare project-level metadata, checking your current account storage and bandwidth consumption in real time.
The Uploadcare MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to OpenAI Agents SDK in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
