VS Code APICK image_generate

How to: VS Code APICK image_generate

client:VS Code transport:streamable-http tool:image_generate

Add APICK to VS Code

  1. 01

    Open .vscode/mcp.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "servers": {
    "all": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://apick.app/mcp/all"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart VS Code.

  2. 03

    Ask for something image_generate does. VS Code lists the server's tools on connect and calls image_generate itself — you do not invoke it by name.

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that APICK's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Requires agent mode. MCP: Open User Configuration puts the same block in every workspace. VS Code docs

Set these first

APICK will not start until these are set, so image_generate never becomes available.

  • APICK_API_KEY
  • APICK_MCP_SERVER

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 24 September 2026. It is what the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.

Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
