Accepted Answer

Cellpose MCP offers comprehensive capabilities including 2D/3D cell segmentation, batch processing, image restoration (denoising, deblurring, upsampling), and the training of custom segmentation and restoration models.

Question 4

Which AI applications are compatible with Cellpose MCP?

Accepted Answer

Cellpose MCP supports easy integration with popular AI applications such as Cursor IDE, Claude Desktop, Antigravity, and VS Code (Cline/Roo Cline extensions), often via simple command-line installers.

Question 5

Can I train custom deep learning models using Cellpose MCP?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Cellpose MCP includes dedicated tools for training custom segmentation models from your own image and mask datasets, as well as for training custom image restoration models, all controlled via natural language.
