Iconoteka MCP Server
io.github.turbaba/iconoteka
Search and retrieve 1,300 open-source icons in 7 weights and 2 styles as paste-ready SVG.
What is the Iconoteka MCP server?
The Iconoteka MCP server provides access to a library of 1,300 precisely designed, open-source pictograms across 23 categories. It enables searching icons by name and retrieving them in any of 7 weights (thin to bold) and 2 styles (stroke or fill) as ready-to-use SVG paths. Icons are designed on a 24-point grid for crisp rendering and optical balance across all variants.
Iconoteka is a universal icon library with 1,300 icons available in 7 weights and 2 styles. Use this MCP server to search for icons by keyword and retrieve SVG code that you can paste directly into your projects. It's useful for designers and developers who need quick access to a consistent, professionally designed icon set without managing multiple files.
How to install Iconoteka
Copy-paste configuration for popular MCP clients.
Tools & capabilities
Tools this server exposes to the agent.
search_icons— Search the Iconoteka library by name, keyword, or category to find matching icons.get_icon_svg— Retrieve the SVG path data for a specific icon in a chosen weight (thin, ultralight, light, regular, medium, semibold, bold) and style (stroke or fill).
Use cases
- Find and copy SVG code for icons to use in web projects or design files
- Search icons by category (e.g., arrows, interface, nature, transportation) to discover relevant pictograms
- Retrieve icons in different weights to match your design system's typography hierarchy
- Get both stroke and fill variants of the same icon for flexible styling options
- Build icon components by fetching SVG paths programmatically for design systems or component libraries
Iconoteka MCP server FAQ
It's an MCP server that gives you access to search and retrieve SVGs from the Iconoteka icon library—1,300 open-source icons in 7 weights and 2 styles.
Yes, Iconoteka is free and open-source under the MIT license. It's free for personal and commercial use, including in closed-source products, with no permission or fee required.
Install via npm with `npm install iconoteka-mcp`, then configure it in your MCP client (Cursor, Claude, etc.) to enable the search and icon retrieval tools.
Icons are available as SVG paths in 7 weights (thin, ultralight, light, regular, medium, semibold, bold) and 2 styles (stroke and fill), all designed on a 24-point grid.
Yes, Iconoteka is free for both personal and commercial use, including closed-source products. No credit is required, though it's appreciated.
Icons are organized into 23 categories (arrows, interface, hardware, nature, transportation, etc.) and can be searched by name or keyword.

Adding icons to your project
Take the icons you need — there's no need to install or clone the whole library.
In Figma — install the plugin, search, drag the icon onto the canvas.
One icon at a time — every icon is a standalone SVG on the CDN:
https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/iconoteka/iconoteka@02.00.15/Icons/Interface/bell-notification-notify-reminder-ring-sound-r-s.svg
The path is Icons/{Category}/{name}-{weight}-{style}.svg, where weight is one
of t u l r m s b (thin → bold) and style is s for stroke or f
for fill. Categories with spaces need URL-encoding: Files%20%26%20Data.
Inline in your markup — both styles are outlined paths, so an icon is a
single <path> with no stroke attributes. Every SVG ships with
fill="currentColor", so it inherits the surrounding text colour:
<svg width="24" height="24" viewBox="0 0 24 24" aria-hidden="true">
<path d="M3 15.55C4.675 13.225 5 11.45 5 8.5…" fill="currentColor"/>
</svg>
Swap the weight or style by changing one letter in the filename — the geometry is designed to stay optically balanced across all seven weights.
Framework packages
Icons as components, generated from the same SVGs:
npm install iconoteka-react # or iconoteka-vue, iconoteka-svelte
import { Bell } from "iconoteka-react";
<Bell />
<Bell weight="bold" variant="fill" size={32} />
weight takes any of the seven, variant is stroke or fill, and anything
else is spread onto the <svg>. Each icon is its own module, so bundlers drop
what you don't import.
Using the full set
icons.json carries every icon and variant in one file — useful for bundling
the set into a design system, generating components, or pulling icons at build
time.
npm install iconoteka
import icons from "iconoteka" with { type: "json" }; // ESM
const icons = require("iconoteka"); // CommonJS
Or fetch it from the CDN:
https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/iconoteka/iconoteka@02.00.15/icons.json
Pin the tag rather than @main — jsDelivr caches branch URLs for up to 7 days.
The npm package contains icons.json only; the raw SVGs stay in the repo.
{
"meta": {
"version": "02.00.09",
"count": 1300,
"categories": 23,
"popular": ["ai", "alert", "bank_card", "bell", "…"]
},
"icons": [
{
"name": "leaf-ecology-nature-natural-leaves-eco-green-organic-plant-wind",

}
The first segment of name is the icon's identity; the rest are search-only
aliases, so match on the identity rather than the full string. Weights are
keyed thin, ultralight, light, regular, medium, semibold, bold,
each holding a stroke and/or fill path.
A curated selection carries "popular": true, listed by identity in
meta.popular. Popular is a flag, not a category — no icon is stored twice.
Design
24-point grid — every icon is built on a 24px grid, so straight lines stay crisp at 24, 48, 96px and beyond, and the set sits comfortably alongside other popular libraries.
Advanced optics — deliberate overshoots, density-based weight modularity and optical stroke compensation throughout.
Bracketing system — preserves structural integrity across all seven weights. Unlike stroke-based sets that simply scale outlines, legibility and visual balance hold at both extremes.
System architecture — a structured metaphor hierarchy, a 5° geometric angle rule, tiered corner rounding and modular components keep the library consistent at production scale.
Universality — geometric construction and high visual clarity keep the icons legible across products and industries that demand contrast and structural consistency.
