Vexy Lines

vexy-lines-cli

Command-line interface and MCP bridge for Vexy Lines.

Parse .lines files, batch export to PDF/SVG/PNG, apply styles to images and video, and connect Claude Desktop or Cursor directly to the Vexy Lines MCP API -- all from the terminal.

What you can do

Without the app running:

  • Inspect .lines file metadata (caption, DPI, dimensions, layer counts)
  • Print the full layer/group/fill hierarchy
  • Extract embedded source and preview images
  • Batch extract from entire directories

With the app running:

  • Apply .lines styles to images via MCP
  • Interpolate between two styles across an image sequence
  • Process video frame-by-frame with style transfer
  • Export .lines files to PDF/SVG/PNG without dialog interaction
  • AI-rename a file's layers and fills with a vision model (vexy-lines-cli[ai])
  • Query and manipulate the live document tree

For AI assistants:

  • Bridge Claude Desktop and Cursor to the Vexy Lines MCP server via stdio
