Summary

The author open-sourced a background removal tool built with open source tech, now also usable as a headless MCP service for AI agents.

Hi ! Months ago, actually probably closer to one year ago i had developed a tool for my workflow to remove background from images using latest open source tech, it worked great, much better than local photoshop even, started using it and that was it. Then times changed and the UI tool got a second life as headless mcp service for my agents. Yesterday was writing about my workflow and somebody mentioned i should opensource the tool, and so i did. The end... Hope it will serve others as it did with me. [https://github.com/frozenpepper/FP-Background\_Obliterator](https://github.com/frozenpepper/FP-Background_Obliterator) P.S. first opensource release for me, and the readme file and general code / folder cleanup was done by the new Gemini Flash model... so... let me know if it needs fixing
