Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| create_illustrationsA | Render 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 |
| get_illustrationA | Return 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_illustrationB | Re-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 |
Prompts
Interactive templates invoked by user choice
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| plan_illustrations | Turn a topic or source into a create_illustrations-ready set of single-idea Tinku illustrations: extract cognitive anchors, reinvent each as a contraption Tinku operates, English annotations only, finishing with one create_illustrations call. |
Resources
Contextual data attached and managed by the client
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| ui://doodleworks-mcp/viewer.html | |
| visual-dna | The Tinku house style: pure-white background, clean even black line, sparse red/orange/blue handwritten English annotations. |
| concept-engine | Cognitive anchor → low-tech contraption Tinku operates; the erase-test; no literal topic pictures. |
| composition-patterns | Secondary layout aids (process, cycle, stack, taxonomy, matrix, timeline, decision, data-shape, summary) for arranging a contraption — never a literal chart. |
| prompt-patterns | How to write an illustration prompt: contraption + Tinku's action + the Required-text block (red/orange/blue, terse). |
| intake | Questions to scope a set: topic/source, audience, spine, count, the cognitive anchors to illustrate. |
| output-quality | The quality bar and a pre-send checklist (erase-test, pure-white, sparse annotations, 16:9, no flowchart). |
| style-references | The drawing-style reference ids available to pass as styleReference (style calibration only — not composition templates, and not the source of the Tinku character). |
