Setup

Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pixelpanda": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["pixelpanda-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "PIXELPANDA_API_TOKEN": "pk_live_your_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

    "args": ["pixelpanda-mcp"],
    "env": {
