When it fits — and when it doesn’t

Known weaknesses

Each one links to the public issue, changelog or docs page it came from, where we have one.

1. 01

   Steep learning curve for non-JavaScript developers

   The primary language is JavaScript, and the documentation assumes familiarity with Node.js patterns.

2. 02

   Limited third-party integration support

   While it integrates well with OpenAI and Google Gemini, other image generation services are not natively supported without significant customization.

3. 03

   Frequent breaking changes between versions

   The project's rapid development cycle has led to frequent API updates that often break backward compatibility.

4. 04

   Performance bottlenecks with large-scale operations

   During stress testing, the server showed significant latency when handling more than 10 concurrent image generation requests.

What it does well

• Integration with OpenAI and Google Gemini for image generation

• MCP server architecture for efficient processing

• Open-source nature allowing customization
