Connect Claude to ExifVision via MCP

MCP (Model Context Protocol) lets AI assistants like Claude call tools exposed by this app. Once connected, Claude can list ExifVision guides, read a guide, and analyze the metadata of an image you share with it — all while your files stay private.

Connecting Claude is a two-step process: add the server to Claude Desktop, then sign in to ExifVision through the OAuth flow Claude starts.

Open Claude Desktop and go to Settings → Developer → Edit Config. Add the block below to your `claude_desktop_config.json` file, then restart Claude:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "exifvision": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-remote",
        "https://forensic-grade.lovable.app/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

When Claude connects for the first time, it will open a browser tab asking you to sign in to ExifVision and approve the connection. After you approve, the following tools become available inside Claude:

- list_guides — Browse the ExifVision guide catalog. - get_guide — Read the full text of any guide by slug. - analyze_image_metadata — Send an image URL or base64 data to ExifVision and receive a forensic metadata summary.

Your photos are still processed browser-side whenever possible, and the OAuth token only lets Claude act as you. You can revoke the connection at any time from your ExifVision account settings or by removing the entry from Claude's config.
