Overview

What is Favicon MCP Server?

Favicon MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that converts SVG images into ICO and PNG favicon formats for web applications. It is designed for developers using LLM-powered tools (e.g., Windsurf, Cursor) who need to generate favicons programmatically.

How to use Favicon MCP Server?

Install Go 1.20+, clone the repository, run go run main.go. The server exposes a tool svg_to_favicon accepting parameters: svg_data (SVG string) or svg_file (path), optional output_formats (default ["ico", "png"]), and optional output_dir for file output. It returns base64‑encoded ICO and PNG data in the response. Integration configs for Windsurf and Cursor are provided.
