agentskillexchange Archive and reorganize local photo libraries with photo-cli
Use photo-cli when an agent needs to normalize a local photo archive by reading capture metadata, reverse geocoding locations, and rebuilding a cleaner folder structure without moving into a hosted photo platform.
Prerequisites
photo-cli, access to the source photo library, destination storage for the reorganized archive
Installation
Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:
- npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector {photo-cli-standalone-executable-or-dotnet-tool-path-or-docker-command} mcp --input {archive-folder-path}
- npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector photo-cli mcp --input {archive-folder-path}
- docker run --rm --volume ./test-photographs:/photos/input --volume ./archive:/photos/output photocli/photocli archive --input /photos/input --output /photos/output --album-type DateRange --album-name My-Album --auto-r...
Requirements and caveats from upstream:
- This application can be installed by Homebrew (macOS & Linux), container (Docker, Podman), standalone executable (without dependency and SDK) or as .NET tool.
- A photo archive folder created with photo-cli archive (must contain the photo-cli.db SQLite database).
- "command": "{photo-cli-standalone-executable-or-dotnet-tool-path-or-docker-command}",
