NovelAI MCP Server
[English README below]
한국어 README
Model Context Protocol (MCP) 서버로 NovelAI 이미지 생성을 사용하세요. 캐릭터 포지셔닝과 V4 프롬프트 같은 고급 기능으로 고품질 애니메 아트를 만들 수 있습니다.
⚠️ 중요 알림
현재 API 제한: NovelAI API는 현재 nai-diffusion-3 모델만 지원합니다. 고급 V4.5 기능은 웹 인터페이스에서는 사용 가능하지만 아직 API에서는 지원되지 않습니다. NovelAI가 API 지원을 확장하면 즉시 업데이트하겠습니다!

Quick Start Examples
Basic Image Generation
- Ask your AI assistant: "Generate an image of a beautiful anime girl with blue hair"
- The assistant will use the
generate_imagetool - Image data will be returned in base64 format
Character Positioning
- Ask: "Create an image with a girl on the left side and a boy on the right side"
- The assistant will use V4 prompt with character positioning
- Characters will be placed at precise coordinates
File Saving
- Ask: "Generate an anime landscape and save it to file"
- Image will be automatically saved to Desktop/novelai_images/
API Key Setup
- Visit NovelAI
- Sign up or log in to your account
- Go to Account Settings → API Keys
- Generate a new API key
- Copy the key and set it using one of the configuration methods above
Troubleshooting
Common Issues
"API key not found"
- Ensure NOVELAI_API_KEY is set correctly
- Check .env file is in the right directory
- Verify environment variable is properly exported
"Model doesn't exist" error
- Only use "nai-diffusion-3" model currently
- NovelAI API doesn't support V4.5 yet
Image generation fails
- Check your NovelAI account balance
- Verify API key is valid and active
- Check internet connection
File saving fails
- Ensure Desktop directory exists
- Check write permissions
- Verify output directory path is valid
Debug Mode
Set DEBUG environment variable for detailed logs:
DEBUG=novelai-mcp-server:* npx -y novelai-mcp-server
