Arcanea InfoGenius — Visual Intelligence MCP Server

Research-grounded infographics and visualizations, delivered as MCP tools.

Arcanea InfoGenius is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that generates rich infographics and visual content using Google Gemini 3 Pro. It combines real-time research grounding with image generation to produce accurate, publication-ready visuals directly from your AI coding environment.

Features

• Research-backed visuals — Gemini grounding pulls live data before generating images
• Multiple output styles — Infographics, diagrams, charts, concept art, and more
• MCP-native — Works with any MCP-compatible client out of the box
• Zero config — Single npx command, no build step required

Tools

Tool	Description
research_topic	Research a topic using Gemini grounding and return structured findings
generate_infographic	Generate a research-grounded infographic on any topic
generate_visual	Generate a styled visual or diagram from a text prompt
get_styles	List all available visual styles and their descriptions

Quick Start

1. Set your API key

export GEMINI_API_KEY="your-google-ai-api-key"

2. Add to your MCP client

Claude Code (~/.claude/settings.json or project .mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "arcanea-infogenius": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["arcanea-infogenius"]
    }
  }
}

Cursor / Windsurf — add the same config to your MCP settings file.

3. Use it

Ask your AI assistant to:

"Research quantum computing breakthroughs in 2026 and generate an infographic"

"Generate a visual diagram of a microservices architecture"

"Show me available infographic styles"

Usage Examples

Research a topic

Tool: research_topic
Input: { "topic": "renewable energy adoption rates by country" }

Returns structured research findings with sources, ready to feed into visualization.

Generate an infographic

Tool: generate_infographic
Input: {
  "topic": "AI model scaling laws",
  "style": "modern-dark"
}

Generates a complete infographic image grounded in current research.

Generate a visual

Tool: generate_visual
Input: {
  "prompt": "System architecture diagram for a real-time multiplayer game",
  "style": "technical-blueprint"
}

Generates a styled visual from a descriptive prompt.

Requirements

• Node.js 18+
• Google AI API key with Gemini 3 Pro access (GEMINI_API_KEY)

How It Works

1. Research — Gemini grounding searches the web for current, relevant data
2. Synthesize — Findings are structured into a visual layout plan
3. Generate — Gemini 3 Pro image generation creates the final visual
4. Deliver — The image is returned as a base64-encoded result via MCP
