OGForge

OGForge MCP Server lets you access a free, open Open Graph image generator API without keys or authentication. It exposes a straightforward HTTP API alongside local development commands so you can test, customize, and integrate image generation into your own workflows.

How to use

You can interact with OGForge MCP Server through its HTTP API or run a local development instance to test and customize behavior.

How to install

Prerequisites: ensure you have Node.js (LTS) installed on your system. You should also have npm (Node Package Manager) available.

How to use the server with an MCP client

To integrate OGForge with an MCP client, you can connect to its public API base URL or run a local instance during development. The public API base is available at the following base URL: https://ogforge.dev/api/v1. You can query the example endpoints to verify behavior and then extend usage to your own Open Graph image generation logic.

Additional setup and usage notes

If you want to run the server locally for development, start the development server using the included npm script. This runs nodemon with ts-node to enable live reloading during development.

Notes on endpoints

Key endpoints include GET /api/v1/example for a sample retrieval, POST /api/v1/example for posting sample data, and GET /health for a health check. Use these endpoints to verify connectivity and basic API behavior before integrating OGForge into your own workflows.

Examples of common workflows

• Validate connectivity by requesting the health endpoint to ensure the service is up.

Security and usage considerations

This API is described as free and open with no authentication or rate limits in the provided usage notes. When moving toward production or integrating into sensitive environments, consider implementing appropriate authentication and access controls outside of the public API surface.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues starting the development server, verify you have installed dependencies and that Node.js is available in your environment. Reinstall dependencies and retry the development start command.

Available tools

GET /api/v1/example

Fetches an example resource to demonstrate a GET request against the API.

POST /api/v1/example

Submits data to the example endpoint to simulate creating a resource.

GET /health

Performs a health check to confirm the API is running and responsive.
