ArtTV for Claude Code

Add ArtTV to Claude Code with one terminal command. Generate images, browse models, and check credits from your coding sessions.

Prerequisites

  1. Create a ArtTV account (free tier includes 1,000 credits)
  2. Go to Settings → API Keys and create a key — it starts with pxk_
  3. Claude Code installed and authenticated

Add via terminal

Run this command — the URL is a positional argument (no --url flag). Restart Claude Code after running.

claude mcp add arttv https://www.arttv.ai/mcp -t http -H "Authorization: Bearer pxk_YOUR_API_KEY"

Auto-allow all ArtTV tools (optional)

To skip per-tool approval prompts, add this to your .claude/settings.local.json in the permissions.allow array:

"mcp__arttv__*"
