Manage Image Processing Jobs

When the team needs to process images, they can use `list_processing_history` to track past runs. The agent also provides `get_enhancement_job_status`, letting developers check if a background image task is finished. If you need to know what formats are accepted by Viesus, `list_supported_file_formats` gives the whole team a clear answer.

Check API Status and Limits

To prevent build failures in CI/CD, developers can use `check_api_health` to verify the Viesus endpoint status. They also call `get_account_credit_balance` to confirm there are enough credits for the team's batch jobs. This ensures that every developer on the team is working with valid resource information.

Retrieve Image Data and Settings

The `get_image_metadata` tool pulls technical data from the image, while `list_configured_webhooks` lets you see which external systems are hooked up. This visibility is key for team-wide reliability. Finally, using `upload_image_to_viesus` starts the whole cycle that leads to a finished product.

1

Open MCP configuration

Open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and run "MCP: Add Server". Select HTTP (Streamable) as the server type. VS Code will create .vscode/mcp.json in your workspace.
