ImageKit integration
Image and video CDN with real-time optimization and transformation. Upload, store, and deliver media with automatic optimization. Apply transformations via URL parameters. Build image-heavy applications with fast global delivery. Note: the Upload File endpoint uses a different base URL (https://upload.imagekit.io/api/v1) while all other endpoints use https://api.imagekit.io/v1.

What you can do with ImageKit
Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.
Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Use ImageKit from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex
Connect ImageKit in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its ImageKit operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.
claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"
[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"{
"mcpServers": {
"livecontext": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
"headers": {
"X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
}
}
}
}How to connect ImageKit
- Create your workspace
Sign up free. Nothing to install.
- Connect ImageKit once
Add your ImageKit connection in Settings. Every tool from this integration reuses it, and secrets are encrypted at rest and visible only to you.
- Describe the job in chat
The workflow builds itself in front of you and picks the endpoints it needs. Drag the steps yourself on the canvas whenever you would rather be explicit.
