Server configuration

Add this block to your MCP client configuration:

mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "elysiatools-png-to-svg": {
      "name": "png-to-svg",
      "description": "Convert PNG images to SVG format using embedded image data (tracing simulation)",
      "baseUrl": "https://api.elysiatools.com/mcp/sse?toolId=png-to-svg",

List available tools

After connecting to the SSE endpoint, list the exposed tools:

tools/list

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/list"
}

Call this tool

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

tools/call

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 2,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "png-to-svg",
    "arguments": {
  "imageFile": "https://example.com/file.ext",
  "method": "embedded",
  "width": 0,
  "height": 0,
  "quality": 90,
  "preserveAspectRatio": 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).
