TL;DR: It's easier than ever to generate detailed pictures with state-of-the-art AI models by connecting Claude to Hugging Face Spaces. This article describes how and why, and introduces recently launched models which excel at producing natural images or images that include text.
Update October 2025: Following an update to Anthropic's Connector Directory Policy, you will need to use the "Add custom connector" option and set the
Remote MCP server URLto https://huggingface.co/mcp?login to use Image Generation and other Gradio Spaces from Claude.
Recent advances in image generation models have improved their ability to produce realistic outputs and incorporate high quality text. It's easier than ever to use these models by connecting them directly to Claude.
The advantages of generating pictures this way are:
To get started, create a free Hugging Face account, then connect Claude from its "Search and tools" menu in the chat input box. The video below shows the exact steps needed:
Behind the scenes, Claude is now set up to use tools from the Hugging Face MCP Server, seamlessly extending its capabilities. This includes the latest AI Applications running on our innovative ZeroGPU powered Spaces. Your Hugging Face account provides free credits to use these large, powerful models.
After Claude has been connected with Hugging Face, we'll show how to configure image generation tools that Claude can use.
FLUX.1 Krea [dev] aims to eliminate the telltale "AI look" that often plagues generated images - for example plastic skin, oversaturated colors, or overly smooth textures. If you want images that look like they were shot by a professional photographer rather than generated by a computer, Krea delivers the realistic textures, natural lighting, and authentic aesthetics that other AI models struggle with. You can read more about how they did this on their blog.
To use Krea with Claude, go to huggingface.co/mcp/settings and add mcp-tools/FLUX.1-Krea-dev to your "Spaces Tools". That's all you need to enable Claude to generate beautiful, realistic looking images.
You can then try a prompt in Claude like:
"Use Krea to create an image of a vibrant garden with victorian house".
To begin generating pictures.
Qwen-Image is a powerful AI image generator that excels at following prompts and accurate text rendering, making it ideal for designing posters, signs, infographics, and marketing materials where text quality matters. Read more about the Qwen-Image model from their blog post.
To use Qwen-Image add mcp-tools/qwen-image from your MCP Servers setting page, then check it is enabled in Claude to start using it.
Qwen-Image comes with a Prompt Enhancer that helps write detailed prompts suitable for it. To try it, select "Qwen Prompt Enhancer" from the prompts menu and enter your idea before submitting it to Claude.
You can even keep both Krea and Qwen-Image enabled and ask Claude to use both so you can compare results. For example: "Use Krea and Qwen to generate a street scene with 'Hugging Face' graffiti sprayed on the wall".
Connecting Claude to Hugging Face Spaces makes using state-of-the-art models as easy as clicking a button, even the day new models are released. Explore the AI App Directory at https://huggingface.co/spaces and build amazing projects with Video Generation, Web Search, Image Editing and many thousands more. With a Pro account you get increased usage limits and more. Let us know what you find and create in the comments below!
