What is the Pixabay MCP Server?
Connect the Pixabay massive media library natively to your AI agent. Access over 4.5 million high-quality, royalty-free stock photos, illustrations, vector graphics, and video clips for commercial use without ever opening a browser.
What you can do
- Deep Media Search — Query photos, illustrations, and SVG vectors directly. Instruct the AI to filter strictly by "Editors Choice" or "Safe Search".
- Video Assets — Fetch MP4 video clips natively, returning multiple resolutions and exact durations for editing suites.
- Parametric Lookups — Find exactly what you need by instructing your agent to filter by orientation (horizontal/vertical), dominant colors, or deep topological categories (backgrounds, architecture, science).
- Direct Payloads — Given a media ID, the agent resolves high-resolution CDN download URLs instantly.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Provide your free Pixabay API Key

Frequently asked questions
Can my AI download and directly embed high-resolution MP4 video URLs into my code?
Yes. Instruct the agent to run a video search (search_videos). The JSON returned points mapping precisely to the highest resolution native CDN endpoints. Your AI agent can ingest these exact mp4 URI addresses and format them perfectly into <video> tags inside your application mockup.
How can I easily discover only landscape photos related to 'urban night' containing mainly orange?
The integration exposes distinct analytical endpoints natively. You simply prompt: 'Search Pixabay for urban night landscape containing orange'. The agent internally invokes the pixel-color mapping API (search_by_color) bounded by the (horizontal) orientation constraint to drastically minimize latency and fetch the literal perfect image.
Are there licensing restrictions when generating code using these results?
No. All media assets managed by the Pixabay integration carry the pure royalty-free license. They are completely safe for commercial use, client mockups, and public deployment without explicit attribution, meaning you don't face unexpected DMCA copyright claims when your agent auto-selects dummy data.
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.
