How do I connect my S3 bucket to imgix using this MCP?

You can use the create_source capability through your AI client to link your S3 origin to the imgix CDN.

Can I clear the cache for a single image?

Yes, use the purge capability to invalidate a specific asset across the imgix Edge network.

Which AI clients can I use with this MCP?

You can use any MCP-compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf.

Does this MCP host my images?

No, this MCP manages your imgix account and connects it to your existing origin storage like S3 or GCS.

Can I turn off a source if it's causing issues?

Yes, you can use the disable_source capability to stop a source from serving images immediately.

What happens when I purge an asset in imgix?

Using the purge capability removes the cached version of the original image and ALL processed derivatives (resized, filtered, etc.) from imgix Edge nodes. This forces the system to re-fetch the file from your origin storage on the next request.

Can I connect my AWS S3 bucket to imgix using my agent?

Absolutely. Use the create_source capability and provide your S3 origin base URL. Your agent will handle the backend orchestration to map your storage bucket to a new imgix CDN domain.

How do I check if a source is currently serving traffic?

The get_source capability retrieves the real-time status of any imgix source. Your agent will return the deployment type and current state, so you'll know exactly if it's enabled and live.

Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Real work

What teams actually run

Instant Asset Updates

After updating a file in S3, tell your agent to purge the specific URL to see the changes live immediately.

Deployment Window Control

Disable a specific source during maintenance or deployment to control image traffic flow.

Media Library Audits

Ask your agent to list all files in a source to check for specific file types or large assets.

Source Configuration

Use the agent to quickly create a new connection between a web folder and the imgix CDN.

Automate a task

Put imgix to work on one thing.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

imgix works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put imgix to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of imgix, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with imgix. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.
