Frequently asked questions
Can I generate images with specific styles and aspect ratios?
Yes. The generate_image tool accepts a text prompt along with style presets (realistic, design, 3D, anime), aspect ratio (1:1, 16:9, 9:16, etc.), and model version. You can control the output precisely for different use cases.
Can I edit specific parts of an existing image?
Yes. Use edit_image with a source image and mask to modify specific regions using inpainting. Use remix_image to transform an image with a new prompt while preserving its overall composition and structure.
How does Ideogram authentication work?
Ideogram uses a custom Api-Key header (not Bearer). Your API key is generated from the Ideogram developer dashboard and sent in all requests to api.ideogram.ai.
How does Cline connect to MCP servers?
Cline reads MCP server configurations from its settings panel in VS Code. Add the server URL and Cline discovers all available tools on initialization.
Can Cline run MCP tools without approval?
By default, Cline asks for confirmation before executing tool calls. You can configure auto-approval rules for trusted servers in the settings.
Does Cline support multiple MCP servers at once?
Yes. Configure as many servers as needed. Cline can use tools from different servers within the same autonomous task execution.
