Seedream is ByteDance’s image model family. Tastepix currently lists Seedream 5.0 Pro and Seedream 5.0 Flash. You use them inside Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor and Codex by adding the Tastepix MCP server at https://mcp.tastepix.com/mcp, with no API keys.

No. Tastepix is not a Seedream API you call with a key. You add https://mcp.tastepix.com/mcp once, sign in with OAuth, and every model on the catalog — including Seedream 5.0 Pro and Seedream 5.0 Flash — runs on one Tastepix account.

Yes. generate_image takes reference_asset_ids (previous or uploaded results) and reference_urls (public https images). Seedream 5.0 Pro is listed for precise edits. Seedream 5.0 Pro: €0.006 extra per reference image. Seedream 5.0 Flash: no extra per reference image.

Ask in plain words; the assistant calls generate_image. Set model to seedream-5-pro and seedream-5-flash. Other parameters: prompt, aspect_ratio, resolution (1K, 2K), count (1–4), reference_asset_ids and reference_urls. Details on /tools.

Tastepix prices Seedream at the sizes in the catalog: 1K and 2K. Omit resolution and Tastepix sends the model’s default (1K) so the charge matches /pricing.
