Doodleworks MCP tools 3
create_illustrationsRender a set of single-idea, hand-drawn Tinku illustrations (each 16:9; an optional 21:9 hero) and open an interactive viewer. Supply one entry per illustration; each `prompt` is a contraption composition + Tinku's action + its exact English annotations — the server applies the Tinku character, the conceptual engine, and the house style. Use this when the user wants hand-drawn illustrations for an article, post, or explainer.get_illustrationReturn the rendered image for one illustration of a previously created set. The viewer calls this for each illustration after create_illustrations so a single tool result never carries the whole set.regenerate_illustrationRe-render a single illustration with the same (or a tweaked) prompt and aspect. Image models are non-deterministic, so this yields a fresh take. Returns the new image in `_meta` for the viewer.
