AI Photo Assistant (MCP)
Reads EXIF and image analysis, plans the edit with a local model, and executes it through MCP tool calls.
The assistant starts with the details a photographer would check: camera, lens, ISO, shutter, aperture, date, orientation, GPS, dimensions, histogram, clipping, white-balance cast, skin ratio and sharpness. It can also inspect a downscaled copy of the image.
It then plans an edit and executes it through the editor’s own MCP (Model Context Protocol) tool server. The fast rules planner works without a model download; an optional local LLM or vision model can plan open-ended requests. Every tool call is visible, validated and undoable.

What you can do
AI assistant, in detail.
A photo-aware local AI assistant. Reads EXIF, histogram, skin and sharpness data, then calls editor tools over MCP to adjust, crop, clean or export.
Plans with a local model
Fast deterministic rules are the default. Optional Qwen2.5 0.5B or SmolVLM 256M backends can plan open-ended prompts; models load lazily and are cached after the first download.
Calls real MCP tools
The browser runs an MCP JSON-RPC server and client: initialize, tools/list, tools/call and structured results. Tool arguments are schema-validated before execution.
Edits the actual document
Tools add adjustment layers, apply recipes, auto-tone, crop, add a text watermark, remove an object, remove a background or export a JPEG/PNG.
No black box
The panel shows the photo analysis, the plan explanation and every MCP request/response. Nothing is applied silently.
Private and undoable
Analysis and planning run locally. No photo is uploaded. Mutating tools use the editor’s history stack, so a bad plan can be undone.
How it works
From file to finish in three moves.
No install step and no import queue. Open the editor, work on the document locally, and export the file your next tool expects.
Try it now- 1
Open a photo
The assistant reads the document and EXIF metadata, then builds a compact analysis summary for the planner.

Ask or choose a preset
Use a prompt like “brighten and warm” or a preset such as Clean distractions, Bright & airy, Reception flash cleanup or Export web JPEG.
- 3
Review the tool trace
Inspect each MCP tool call and its result, then keep the edit or undo it. Export tools produce a normal download.
Who it is for
Built for real photo work.
These are the workflows the tool is designed around — not a list of theoretical features.
- Wedding and event editors who want a repeatable cleanup pass with visible tool calls.
- Photographers who want EXIF-aware suggestions instead of a generic “auto enhance” button.
- Teams that want an inspectable local agent rather than an opaque cloud edit.
- Developers exploring MCP-style tool use inside a browser photo editor.
Questions
AI assistant FAQ
Straight answers about formats, privacy and limits.
Does the assistant upload my photo?
No. Metadata parsing, pixel analysis and the MCP tools run in the tab. Optional local models download weights from Hugging Face once and then run through ONNX Runtime WebAssembly or WebGPU.
What is MCP doing here?
MCP is the JSON-RPC tool protocol between the local agent and the editor. The browser hosts a small MCP server exposing photo tools; the planner calls tools/list and tools/call, and the panel logs every exchange.
Which AI model is used?
The default is a deterministic local rules planner with no download. You can opt into a small local text model (Qwen2.5 0.5B) or vision model (SmolVLM 256M) when you want open-ended planning. Model availability and speed depend on the device.
Can the agent do anything destructive?
Tools are bounded and schema-validated. Mutating edits go through the editor store and undo history; exports create a download. There is no background or autonomous execution outside a run you start.
