list_presets

List available looks: the user's saved presets, scene presets, color grades and experimental presets.

What it does

my_presets are the looks the photographer saved in the imagic editor ("Save current as preset"), by name, with the sliders each one moves. When the user mentions "my preset" or a look by a name that is not a built-in key, it is one of these. Scene presets (for example portrait, low_light) add slider offsets tuned for a shooting situation. Color grades (for example film_warm, moody, bw_classic) set an overall artistic look. Experimental presets (for example bleach_bypass, cinestill, infrared_bw) are one-click finishing effects from the editor's EXPERIMENTAL section, layered over everything else. Show these to the user when they ask what styles or filters are available, then use apply_preset.

Parameters

list_presets takes no parameters. Ask for it in plain language and the agent calls it directly.

Asking for it

You do not call this by name. You say what you want, and the agent picks the tool:

Apply the warm film look to every keeper in this folder and export JPEGs at quality 92.

Workflows that use it

Where it runs

On your machine. imagic's MCP server is a local process that your AI client starts; the photos never leave your disk and nothing is uploaded. That is true of every tool in the reference, including this one.

To call it you need an MCP client connected to imagic. Setup takes about three minutes for Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Codex, Gemini CLI and ten others.

Give your AI the whole pipeline

list_presets is one of 30 tools in imagic Max. The free 500-export trial includes all of them.
