What is the Tencent Youtu / 腾讯优图 MCP Server?
Empower your AI agent to orchestrate your visual intelligence and facial recognition workflows with Tencent Youtu (腾讯优图), the premier computer vision platform in China. By connecting Youtu to your agent, you transform complex image analysis, face comparison, and person management into a natural conversation. Your agent can instantly detect faces in image URLs, retrieve detailed attributes like age and beauty scores, compare identities across different photos, and manage secure person libraries without you ever needing to navigate the comprehensive Tencent Cloud Console. Whether you are building an automated KYC system or conducting a digital asset audit for facial content, your agent acts as a real-time computer vision specialist, providing accurate and fast results from a single, authorized source.
What you can do
- Facial Orchestration — Detect faces, analyze attributes (gender, age, beauty), and perform static liveness checks.
- Identity Comparison — Calculate similarity scores between two face images to verify identities with high precision.
- Library Management — Register new persons, list group members, and manage unique identity identifiers.
- Face Discovery — Search for matching faces within specific person groups to automate recognition workflows.
- System Monitoring — Verify API connectivity and monitor service status to ensure visual intelligence reliability.

Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Tencent Cloud SecretId and SecretKey?
Log in to the Tencent Cloud Console, navigate to [Access Management] -> [API Key Management] to find or generate your unique SecretId and SecretKey.
What is the 'Beauty' score?
The Beauty score is an aesthetic metric provided by the Tencent Youtu AI, ranging from 0 to 100. It is a technical attribute intended for entertainment and lifestyle application scenarios.
Does this server handle signature calculation?
Yes! The server automatically calculates the required TC3-HMAC-SHA256 signature for every request using your provided SecretKey, ensuring secure authorized communication with the Tencent Cloud AI gateway.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
