spritecook-mcp

Connect your AI agent (Cursor, VS Code, Claude Desktop, Claude Code) to SpriteCook for AI-powered pixel art and game asset generation.

Quick Setup

npx spritecook-mcp setup

This will:

1. Authenticate your SpriteCook account (browser-based or manual API key)
2. Detect your editors (Cursor, VS Code, Claude Desktop, Claude Code)
3. Configure MCP connections automatically
4. Install an optional agent skill for smarter AI integration

The optional skill includes current guidance for recovering lost asset IDs with list_recent_assets(...) and using the primary asset URL instead of lower-level variant fields.

What You Get

After setup, your AI agent can generate pixel art and game assets directly:

"Generate a 64x64 pixel art sword sprite"

"Create a character sprite sheet for my platformer game"

"Make a set of potion icons with transparent backgrounds"

Manual Configuration

If you prefer to configure manually, add this to your editor's MCP config:

Cursor (.cursor/mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "spritecook": {
      "url": "https://api.spritecook.ai/mcp/",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" }
    }
  }
}

VS Code (.vscode/settings.json):

{
  "mcp": {
    "servers": {
      "spritecook": {
        "type": "http",
        "url": "https://api.spritecook.ai/mcp/",
        "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" }
      }
    }
  }
