mcp-image-generation-guide	Generate Images in Your IDE with MCP	inbox	2026-01-02	research/keywords/docs-seo-analysis-2026-01-02.md	blocked (waiting for MCP feature)

Idea

Discovery

Source: Competitive analysis — Replicate and fal.ai both have MCP documentation

Evidence:

Replicate: replicate.com/docs/reference/mcp
fal.ai: docs.fal.ai/model-apis/mcp (Cursor-specific guide)
r/mcp subreddit: 82K subscribers, active discussion of image MCP servers
Third-party MCP servers for image generation on GitHub (seedream, flux, etc.)

Why This Matters

Market expectation — Developers using Cursor/Claude Code expect MCP integration
Competitor parity — Both major competitors have this documented
Workflow-native positioning — This is our core value proposition
SEO opportunity — "image generation mcp" emerging as search term

Potential Angles

Option A: Documentation page /docs/mcp/ — Getting started with Banatie MCP server

Cursor setup guide
Claude Desktop integration
Claude Code usage
Example workflows

Option B: Tutorial blog post "How to Generate Images Without Leaving Your IDE"

Shows full workflow
Compares to API calls
Code examples

Option C: Comparison "Banatie MCP vs Replicate MCP vs fal.ai MCP"

Feature comparison
Setup complexity
Unique Live URLs capability

Keywords (to research when feature ships)

"image generation mcp"
"ai image mcp server"
"cursor image generation"
"claude code image generation"
"mcp server image api"

Notes

BLOCKED — Cannot publish until MCP feature ships
Pre-write documentation draft now
Launch content same day as feature release
Emphasize Live URLs as unique MCP capability (neither competitor has this)

Differentiation Point

Key message: "Generate images via URL without writing API code"

// Competitor MCP:
"Generate an image of a sunset"
→ Returns image file/data

// Banatie MCP + Live URLs:
"Create a placeholder URL for product images"
→ Returns URL that generates on-demand
→ No storage, instant, shareable

This is our unique angle.
