The Nano Banana API Model Context Protocol (MCP) server enables AI-powered code editors like Cursor and Windsurf, plus general-purpose tools like Claude Desktop, to interact directly with your Nano Banana API API and documentation.
What is MCP?
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that allows AI applications to securely access external data sources and tools. The Nano Banana API MCP server provides AI agents with:
- Direct API access to Nano Banana API functionality
- Documentation search capabilities
- Real-time data from your Nano Banana API account
- Code generation assistance for Nano Banana API integrations
Nano Banana API MCP Server Setup
Nano Banana API hosts a remote MCP server at https://nano-banana-api.readme.io/mcp. Configure your AI development tools to connect to this server. If your APIs require authentication, you can pass in headers via query parameters or however headers are configured in your MCP client.
Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"nano-banana-api": {
"url": "https://nano-banana-api.readme.io/mcp"
}
}
}Add to ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"nano-banana-api": {
"url": "https://nano-banana-api.readme.io/mcp"
}
}
}Add to claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"nano-banana-api": {
"url": "https://nano-banana-api.readme.io/mcp"
}
}
}Testing Your MCP Setup
Once configured, you can test your MCP server connection:
- Open your AI editor (Cursor, Windsurf, etc.)
- Start a new chat with the AI assistant
- Ask about Nano Banana API - try questions like:
- "How do I [common use case]?"
- "Show me an example of [API functionality]"
- "Create a [integration type] using Nano Banana API"
The AI should now have access to your Nano Banana API account data and documentation through the MCP server.
