Invoke the tool by its id, passing arguments built from its parameters:

tools/call

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 2,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "jpg-to-progressive-jpg",

  "imageFile": "https://example.com/file.ext",
  "quality": 85,
  "scanCount": 10,
  "optimizeScans": true,
  "mozjpeg": true
}
  }
}

Chain multiple tools in one session with a comma-separated toolId list, e.g. /mcp/sse?toolId=png-to-webp,jpg-to-webp,gif-to-webp (max 20).
