MCP server that converts raster images (PNG/JPG/WEBP) to SVG vector format
SaferSkills independently audited image2svg-mcp (MCP Server) and scored it 45/100 (orange). The audit ran 55 deterministic rules across Security, Supply Chain, Maintenance, Transparency, and Community; it found 3 high-severity and 0 lower-severity findings. The full rule-by-rule trace and per-finding evidence are below. Free, methodology-open.

A base64 string of 128+ characters appears in a documentation file. Encoded prompt injection hides the hostile instruction in base64 — invisible to keyword filters — and relies on the agent's ability to decode it at runtime. There is no normal authoring reason to embed a multi-hundred-byte base64 blob in skill docs.

Convert this local file to SVG: file://logo.png
Only files inside the specified directory (and its subdirectories) are accessible. Paths are normalized to prevent directory traversal. Without this flag, file:// URLs are rejected.
Here are some examples of what you can tell an LLM to do with this tool:
Generate an image of a sunset over mountains, then convert it to SVG.
The LLM will generate a raster image and then use the convert_image_to_svg tool with default settings to produce a clean vector version.
Create a logo with a blue circle and a white star inside it. Now convert it to SVG using binary colormode for crisp edges and set filter_speckle to 10 to remove noise.
This uses colormode: "binary" for black/white line art style output, which works great for logos and icons. The higher filter_speckle value removes small artifacts.
Convert this image to a simplified SVG with low color precision for a minimalist poster look: https://example.com/photo.png
Using color_precision: 3 reduces the number of colors dramatically, producing an artistic posterized vector effect. Great for stylized illustrations.
