You can run an MCP server that exposes Adobe Illustrator capabilities for manipulating and querying text, images, and paths. This server runs locally on macOS and connects to your MCP client to perform Illustrator-based actions in automated workflows or tooling pipelines.

How to use

To use this server with your MCP client, run the local process that hosts the Illustrator MCP capabilities and point your client to connect to it. You configure the client to launch the server locally and then use the available commands to manipulate Illustrator content through the MCP protocol. The server exposes functionality that lets you perform text, image, and path operations and retrieve related information from Illustrator.

Start the server as a local process and connect your MCP client to it. Use the provided configuration entry in your client settings to reference the local process that serves Illustrator MCP capabilities. This approach keeps everything running on your machine and allows you to orchestrate Illustrator tasks from your automation scripts.
