Mockups Gallery tools 8

  • send_mockupSend HTML/SVG (raw string) or PNG/JPG (base64) to the gallery. Supports `parent` and `fold` (see Versions). Returns a gallery URL.
  • list_mockupsList mockups reverse-chronologically, optionally filtered by project.
  • get_mockupGet a specific mockup by UUID with view and gallery URLs, plus its version list. Curl the `view_url` to read the file content.
  • update_mockupUpdate metadata (title, description, tags), or add a new version by supplying `content` (earlier versions are kept).
  • split_versionSplit one version out of its design into its own standalone mockup — reverses a fold.
  • delete_mockupDelete a mockup, or (with `version`) just one version — removes the DB record(s) and file(s) on disk.
  • tag_mockupAdd or remove tags on an existing mockup.
  • set_created_atChange the created date of a mockup (or one version). Useful for backdating uploads or reordering the timeline.
