Tools & capabilities
Picorn MCP tools 32
picorn_capabilitiesList live canvas formats, fonts, layouts, image models, GPU reachability and fair-use limits.picorn_projects_createCreate a marketing project that can hold many editor files and imported image assets. Keep the returned workspaceProjectId and workspaceProjectKey together; use them when adding every related file.picorn_projects_inspectList every editor file, imported asset, and the project brand profile with named colors and saved logos or visual references. File entries include their current thumbnail, status, creation URL and canonical /studio/editor?runId=... editorUrl. Always give the user that editorUrl.picorn_projects_updateUpdate the name, description, or named color scheme of a marketing project, then return its complete file, asset, and brand index.picorn_design_imageCODEX-ONLY. The calling Codex supplies the complete SVG, including copy and layout. Picorn resolves declared placeholders and renders it through Fabric/SVG. No internal language or design model is called.picorn_generate_imageGenerate a raw image with self-hosted Z-Image Turbo. Returns an inline preview and public creationUrl.picorn_generate_vector_assetsUse Picorn's native editor engine: first generate raster artwork with self-hosted Z-Image Turbo on ComfyUI, remove its background, then convert it through the bundled multi-colour SVG converter. Generates five variants, selects the strongest result and returns the top three. Signets also return one layered editor file that displays the three shortlisted SVGs inside the same native project. Use this tool for every newly generated signet and custom icon.picorn_edit_imageTransform an existing image with Flux 2 Klein. Returns an inline preview and public creationUrl.picorn_render_svgRender your SVG through Picorn with real typography and declarative image workers. Put placeholder <rect> elements inside the SVG and choose their backend with data-clipart-engine="svg-converter" (fresh ComfyUI image, background removal, then Picorn PNG→SVG vectorisation), data-clipart-engine="z-image-turbo" (raster photo/cutout), or data-clipart-engine="library" (existing vector only). Include data-clipart-prompt; use data-clipart-num-colors="1..7" for svg-converter, and data-clipart-keep-bg="true" for a full scene. Picorn resolves all placeholders internally; never call the admin converter or return generated base64 yourself. Returns an inline preview and public creationUrl.
