MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a model context protocol launched by Anthropic that allows AI models (such as Claude, GPT, etc.) to call external tools through standardized interfaces. With the Nano Banana MCP Server provided by AceData Cloud, you can directly generate and edit AI images in AI clients like Claude Desktop, VS Code, Cursor, etc.

Feature Overview

The Nano Banana MCP Server offers the following core functionalities:
  • Image Generation — Generate high-quality images from text prompts
  • Image Editing — Modify existing images or combine multiple images
  • Virtual Try-On — Dress clothing on photos of people
  • Product Placement — Place products in real scenes
  • Multi-Model Support — Supports nano-banana, nano-banana-2, and nano-banana-pro models
  • Task Querying — Monitor generation progress and obtain results

Prerequisites

Before use, you need to obtain an AceData Cloud API Token:
  1. Register or log in to the AceData Cloud platform
  2. Go to the Nano Banana Images API page
  3. Click “Acquire” to get the API Token (first-time applicants receive free credits)

Installation Configuration

pip install mcp-nanobanana-pro

Method 2: Source Installation

git clone https://github.com/AceDataCloud/MCPNanoBanana.git
cd MCPNanoBanana
pip install -e .
Once installed, you can start the service using the mcp-nanobanana-pro command.

Using in Claude Desktop

Edit the Claude Desktop configuration file:
  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
  • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
Add the following configuration:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nanobanana": {
      "command": "mcp-nanobanana-pro",
      "env": {
        "ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN": "Your API Token"
      }
    }
  }
}
If using uvx (no need to install packages in advance):
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nanobanana": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["mcp-nanobanana-pro"],
      "env": {
        "ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN": "Your API Token"
      }
    }
  }
}
After saving the configuration, restart Claude Desktop to use Nano Banana related tools in the conversation.

Using in VS Code / Cursor

Create .vscode/mcp.json in the project root directory:
{
  "servers": {
    "nanobanana": {
      "command": "mcp-nanobanana-pro",
      "env": {
        "ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN": "Your API Token"
      }
    }
  }
}
Or use uvx:
{
  "servers": {
    "nanobanana": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["mcp-nanobanana-pro"],
      "env": {
        "ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN": "Your API Token"
      }
    }
  }
}

Available Tools List

Tool NameDescription
nanobanana_generate_imageGenerate images from text prompts
nanobanana_edit_imageEdit or combine existing images
nanobanana_get_taskQuery the status of a single task

Usage Examples

Once configured, you can directly call these functions in the AI client using natural language, for example:
  • “Help me generate a watercolor landscape painting”
  • “Photoshop this clothing onto this person”
  • “Place this product in a café scene”
  • “Generate a high-quality portrait using the nano-banana-pro model”
