What is the Face++ / Megvii MCP Server?
Empower your AI agent to orchestrate your computer vision operations with Face++ (Megvii), the dominant facial recognition platform in China. By connecting Face++ to your agent, you transform complex image analysis and identity verification into a natural conversation. Your agent can instantly detect faces, compare similarities between photos, search within face databases (FaceSets), and analyze human body skeletons or gestures without you ever needing to navigate the comprehensive web console. Whether you are conducting KYC audits or monitoring visual content, your agent acts as a real-time vision intelligence assistant, providing accurate and fast results from a single, unified source.
What you can do
- Face Orchestration — Detect faces in images and retrieve detailed attributes like age, gender, and emotion.
- Identity Verification — Compare two images to calculate confidence that they belong to the same person.
- FaceSet Management — Create and manage searchable face databases for large-scale matching.
- Body & Skeleton Analysis — Detect human bodies and skeletons to analyze posture and movement.
- Gesture Recognition — Identify specific hand gestures from image data.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Face++ API Key and API Secret
- Start querying vision data through Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Security & Compliance — automate identity verification and KYC processes through natural language queries.
- UX Researchers — analyze user emotions and gestures during product testing directly from your AI-powered workspace.
- Developers — integrate a massive library of computer vision APIs into your AI-driven daily routines.
- Face++ Power Users — integrate your existing vision workflows into your AI-driven daily routines.

Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns Face++ / Megvii into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Face++ / Megvii and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 10 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
- —
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
- —
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
- —
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
- —
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Face++ API Key and Secret?
Log in to the Face++ Console, go to [Dashboard] -> [API Key], and you will find your unique Key and Secret there. Ensure you have the necessary permissions enabled.
Can I analyze images from a local file?
This server currently supports analysis via image_url. To use local files, you should upload them to a public or private storage and provide the resulting URL to the tools.
What attributes can be returned during face detection?
Common attributes include gender, age, emotion, head pose, smile, face quality, and skin status. You can specify these in the return_attributes parameter of the detect_face tool.
What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?
Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.
Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?
Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.
Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?
No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.
How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?
Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
Tools not appearing in Cursor
Ensure you are in Agent mode (not Ask mode). MCP tools only work in Agent mode.
Server shows as disconnected
Check Settings → Features → MCP and verify the server status. Try clicking the refresh button.
