What is the FileStack MCP Server?

Connect your Filestack account to any AI agent to handle complex file workflows, from cloud uploads to advanced AI content analysis, through simple commands.

What you can do

  • Smart Uploads — Upload files directly from any public URL to your Filestack S3 storage using upload_from_url.
  • AI Intelligence — Automatically extract text from documents (get_ocr), detect objects and features in images (get_image_tags), and check for unsafe content (get_sfw_status).
  • Image Transformations — Generate optimized CDN URLs for resizing, blurring, or filtering images using generate_transform_url without manual editing.
  • Video Processing — Initiate and monitor asynchronous video transcoding jobs (start_video_transcode) to convert files into web-ready formats like MP4 or HLS.
  • Metadata Inspection — Retrieve deep technical details including dimensions, mime types, and file sizes with get_metadata.

How it works

  1. Subscribe to this server
  2. Enter your Filestack API Key (and optional Policy/Signature for security)
  3. Start processing assets directly from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client

Who is this for?

  • Developers — Automate asset pipelines and generate transformation URLs directly from the code editor.
  • Content Moderators — Use AI to automatically flag unsafe images or tag visual assets at scale.
  • Data Engineers — Extract structured text from scanned documents and images using OCR for downstream processing.

Why Pydantic AI?

Pydantic AI validates every FileStack tool response against typed schemas, catching data inconsistencies at build time. Connect 8 tools through Vinkius and switch between OpenAI, Anthropic, or Gemini without changing your integration code. full type safety, structured output guarantees, and dependency injection for testable agents.

  • Full type safety: every MCP tool response is validated against Pydantic models, catching data inconsistencies before they reach your application

  • Model-agnostic architecture. switch between OpenAI, Anthropic, or Gemini without changing your FileStack integration code

  • Structured output guarantee: Pydantic AI ensures tool results conform to defined schemas, eliminating runtime type errors

  • Dependency injection system cleanly separates your FileStack connection logic from agent behavior for testable, maintainable code

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

How can I extract text from a scanned document or image?

Use the get_ocr tool with the file handle. The AI will perform Optical Character Recognition and return the extracted text along with its coordinates.

02

Is there a way to check if an uploaded image contains adult or unsafe content?

Yes, the get_sfw_status tool uses Filestack Intelligence to analyze the image and return a safety score, helping you moderate content automatically.

03

Can I resize an image without actually downloading and re-uploading it?

Absolutely. Use generate_transform_url to create a specific CDN URL with tasks like resize=width:400. This allows the Filestack CDN to handle the transformation on the fly.

04

How does Pydantic AI discover MCP tools?

Create an MCPServerHTTP instance with the server URL. Pydantic AI connects, discovers all tools, and generates typed Python interfaces automatically.

05

Does Pydantic AI validate MCP tool responses?

Yes. When you define result types as Pydantic models, every tool response is validated against the schema. Invalid data raises a clear error instead of silently corrupting your pipeline.

06

Can I switch LLM providers without changing MCP code?

Absolutely. Pydantic AI abstracts the model layer. your FileStack MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
