### Description (declared)

# Copilot Image Generation MCP

An MCP server that connects [GitHub Copilot CLI](https://docs.github.com/copilot/concepts/agents/about-copilot-cli) to **Microsoft Copilot's image generation** backend.

Generate images from text prompts and iteratively refine them — all from the terminal. Images are saved locally and organized by session.

## Requirements

- Python 3.10+
- [GitHub Copilot CLI](https://docs.github.com/copilot/concepts/agents/about-copilot-cli)
- [Microsoft 365 Copilot license](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/copilot/) with image generation enabled
- A Chromium-based browser (Edge, Chrome, or Chromium) for first-time sign-in

## Quick Start

1. **Install and register**

   ```bash
   pip install copilot-image-gen-mcp
   copilot plugin install msartem/copilot_image_gen_mcp
   ```

2. **Launch Copilot CLI**

   ```bash
   copilot
   ```

3. **Sign in** (first time only)

   Copilot will automatically call `sign_in` when needed. An Edge
   browser window opens — sign in with your Microsoft 365 account. The
   auth code is captured automatically via Playwright (no manual copy-paste).

4. **Try it out**

   ```
   Generate an image of an elephant in Times Square
   Make the elephant golden
   Change the background to a sunset over mountains
   ```

After first sign-in, auth is silent via cached refresh tokens (~90 day
lifetime, auto-renewing). No browser window on subsequent uses.

## How It Works

1. You ask Copilot CLI to generate or modify an image
2. Copilot routes it to the `generate_image` or `refine_image` tool
3. The MCP server opens a WebSocket to Microsoft Copilot's backend
4. The backend generates the image (DALL-E) and returns it as base64 PNG
5. The image is saved to `~/.copilot-images/` and the file path is returned

Multi-turn refinement works automatically — the server maintains a conversation
so each `refine_image` call builds on the previous image.

```
You → Copilot CLI → image gen MCP → M365 Copilot (Sydney) → DALL-E → P…
