wilsonchenghy/ShaderToy-MCP

MCP Server for ShaderToy, a website for creating, running and sharing GLSL shader (https://www.shadertoy.com/). It connects LLM like Claude with ShaderToy through Model Context Protocol (MCP), allowing the LLM to query and read the entire web page, allowing it to make increasingly complex shader it normally isn't capable of.
Example of the complex shader it generates:
****
***Ocean*** (https://www.shadertoy.com/view/tXs3Wf)
****
***Mountains*** (https://www.shadertoy.com/view/W3l3Df)
****
***Matrix Digital Rain*** (https://www.shadertoy.com/view/33l3Df)
Features
- Retriving info on any shader on ShaderToy
- Search for shader available on ShaderToy through a search prompt
- Generate complex shaders by learning from existing shaders on ShaderToy
MCP Tools
- get_shader_info()
- search_shader()
Installation
**On Mac, please install uv as**
**On Windows**
and then
Otherwise installation instructions are on their website: Install uv
Claude Desktop Integration
Git clone the project with git clone https://github.com/wilsonchenghy/ShaderToy-MCP.git
Go to Claude > Settings > Developer > Edit Config > claude_desktop_config.json to include the following:
Once the config file has been set on Claude, you will see a hammer icon for the MCP. Test with the example commands to see if it correctly utilize the MCP tools.
Example Commands
Generate shader code of a {object}, if it is based on someone's work on ShaderToy, credit it, make the code follow the ShaderToy format: void mainImage( out vec4 fragColor, in vec2 fragCoord ) {}
