## Tools

7 declared. Statically extracted from the shipped source — a floor on the surface, not a census.
- `image_info` — Read format, dimensions, alpha and EXIF orientation of a local image file. Call it first when the user asks what an image is, or before picking crop or resize n
- `circle_crop` — Make a round profile picture: center-square crop plus a circular transparent mask. png (default), webp and avif keep the transparent corners; jpeg flattens them
- `crop_image` — Crop to a pixel box (left, top, width, height) or to a centered aspect ratio such as 1:1, 4:5 or 16:9. Use when the user wants part of an image or a fixed ratio
- `resize_image` — Resize by width, height or percent. Keeps the aspect ratio (fit=inside) and never enlarges unless enlarge=true. Lanczos3 resampling. Use when the user gives tar
- `compress_image` — Smaller file, same format. jpg/webp/avif re-encode at `quality` (default 80, mozjpeg for jpg); png is recompressed losslessly. Use when the user needs a lighter
- `convert_image` — Convert between jpeg, png, webp and avif (the input may also be GIF, TIFF or HEIC). Transparency is kept except for jpeg, which is flattened onto `background`. 
- `roundcut_web_tools` — Links to the RoundCut browser tools for what this server does not do locally: AI background removal, AI upscaling, batch conversion and image-to-PDF. Free, 29 l

## Install

**Verdict: review** — Installable, but 1 thing to check first: No publisher has proved control of this listing; it is indexed, not vouched for.
**Cautions** (coverage gaps and advisories — never blocking)
- No publisher has proved control of this listing; it is indexed, not vouched for.
**Config** (claude-code):
```json
"{\n  \"mcpServers\": {\n    \"roundcut\": {\n      \"command\": \"npx\",\n      \"args\": [\n        \"-y\",\n        \"roundcut-mcp\"\n      ]\n    }\n  }\n}"
```

## Blast radius

Contained to moderate — no credential declaration found, from the publisher, the upstream registry, or the README. Known so far: runs on your machine; read-only tool surface.
- Floor 12, ceiling 30 (tier: unknown)
- `unknown` means the floor and ceiling land in different bands — not measured enough to name one. It does not mean low.
- This is impact, not likelihood. A high radius is not a defect: a filesystem server is supposed to write files. It is never part of the trust score.
