A practical workflow

Install Mochify on macOS via Homebrew, Linux and Cargo paths available on the repo.
Configure Claude Desktop to use Mochify as an MCP server by adding JSON configuration and restarting Claude Desktop.
Ask Claude in plain English to compress or convert images; the image stays on the local device and only paths cross the context.
