How do I let ChatGPT find and place memes automatically?

ChatGPT can use external tools via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). memecub provides a remote MCP server at https://memecub.com/mcp. Add this server to ChatGPT's MCP settings (or to any MCP-compatible client like Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor) to let ChatGPT search memes directly.

Alternatively, use the REST API for custom integrations. The search endpoint costs 1 credit per call, and a keyless trial allows 20 searches a day. For automatic placement, the /match endpoint takes an article and returns a fitting meme for each paragraph.

Once the MCP server is added, you can ask ChatGPT: “Find a meme about job hunting” or “Place memes in this article.” ChatGPT will call the search or match tool and return meme URLs or IDs.

For developers, here's a minimal config example for an MCP client (e.g., Claude Code or Cursor):

json { "mcpServers": { "memecub": { "url": "https://memecub.com/mcp" } } }

Then ChatGPT can use the search and match tools automatically.

Use search when you need a specific meme by keyword (e.g., “error”, “job hunt”, “red packet”). Use match when you have a full article and want memes placed paragraph by paragraph without manual picking.

Both are available via the MCP server and the REST API. The AI meme maker (/generate) is for creating custom memes from a description, not for finding existing ones.

Memes from the web are for personal chats only; copyright stays with original creators. For commercial use, enable the filter for openly licensed images (Openverse, open-source emoji, public-domain art).

When placing memes automatically, check that each one fits the context. A meme that's off-topic can confuse readers. Use the /match endpoint or review picks manually.
