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
