Iconify

A unified API for 200,000+ open-source icons across 150+ collections including Material Design Icons, Font Awesome, Heroicons, Lucide, Tabler, and many more. Search by keyword, retrieve SVG data, or browse available collections.

Tools

• search_icons — Search for icons by keyword across all collections (e.g., "home", "arrow", "user")
• get_icons — Retrieve SVG data for specific icons in a collection by prefix and name
• list_collections — Browse all available icon collections with metadata

When to use

• "I need a settings gear icon" — search for "settings" and pick from multiple styles
• Fetching SVG icon data to embed directly in a web page or app
• Comparing icon styles across collections (Material vs. Heroicons vs. Lucide)
• Building an icon picker component

Example: search for "download" icons

curl -s -X POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/iconify/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"search_icons","arguments":{"query":"download","limit":5}}}'

Returns icon names with their collection prefix (e.g., "mdi:download", "heroicons:arrow-down-tray").
