at.memebo/memeboat-mcp — MCP Server for Search & Knowledge

Memeboat MCP

MCP server for Memeboat — search 25,000+ meme templates and create real, shareable memes straight from your AI assistant. Free, anonymous, no API key.

Ask your assistant things like:

"Make a Buzz Lightyear everywhere meme about code reviews"

…and it will search the catalog, caption the template, and hand you back a live meme URL:

https://memebo.at/meme/x-x-everywhere-code-reviews-code-reviews-everywhere-ab12cd

Install

Claude Code

claude mcp add memeboat -- npx -y memeboat-mcp

Claude Desktop

Add to claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "memeboat": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "memeboat-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Cursor / other MCP clients

Any client that speaks stdio MCP works the same way: run npx -y memeboat-mcp.

Tools

Tool	What it does
`search_meme_templates`	Search templates by name or topic (`query`, optional `limit`). Returns slugs, image URLs and a `suggestedCaptionCount` per template.
`get_meme_template`	Details for one template by slug: dimensions, image URL, caption count.
`create_meme`	Caption a template (`template` slug + `texts[]`, top-to-bottom) and get back the meme's page URL and direct image URL. Supports per-caption styling and layout (see below).

Caption placement: 1 text = bottom caption, 2 texts = classic top/bottom, more texts fill the template's own caption boxes in order — matching suggestedCaptionCount gives the best results.

Styling (create_meme): each entry in texts[] can be a plain string or an object { text, color?, outline?, font? }. Colors are a hex value (#f00/#ff0000) or one of white, black, red, yellow, blue, green; leave outline off and a readable outline is picked for you. A top-level font sets the default for every caption, and layout: "top" puts the captions in a white bar above the image instead of overlaying them. Fonts: impact, arial, helvetica, times, courier, titillium, thick, kalam, comic, notosans, notosanshebrew.

"Make a drake meme, red top caption, in the top layout"

How it works

This package is a thin stdio client over Memeboat's public JSON API (https://memebo.at/api/...). Created memes are rendered server-side by Memeboat and hosted there — the image URL is immediately shareable. Creation is rate-limited per IP; be a good citizen.

Point the server at another instance with MEMEBOAT_API_URL (useful for development).
