Creates a new Photoshop document. Use a preset for common social-media / print sizes, or supply custom dimensions. Optionally fill a background color and add guide presets.

Returns the full state of the active document — dimensions, resolution, color mode, layer count, active layer, and selection status. Use this to orient yourself before making changes.

Saves the active document to disk. Supports PSD, JPEG, and PNG formats. For JPEG, quality ranges from 1 (lowest) to 12 (highest).

Creates a new layer or group in the active document. Optionally positions it below a named layer.

Performs a layer operation: delete, duplicate, merge-visible, flatten, rasterize, group, ungroup, lock, unlock, show, or hide. Targets the named layer or the active layer if none is specified. This single tool replaces 10+ individual layer-action tools.

Returns the full layer tree of the active document as JSON, including names, types, visibility, opacity, blend modes, and bounds. Use this to understand the document structure before editing.

Moves a layer to a new position in the layer stack. Use "top"/"bottom" for absolute positioning, or "up"/"down" for relative moves. Optionally specify a targetLayer for relative placement.

Applies a transform to the active (or named) layer. Supports move, scale, rotate, flip-horizontal, flip-vertical, and fit-to-document — all in one tool. Supply only the parameters relevant to your action.

Aligns a layer relative to the document bounds. Use center-both to perfectly center a layer, or pick an edge alignment.

Creates a text layer with full typographic control in a single call — font, size, color, alignment, tracking, leading, and warp. Use type "point" for single-line text or "area" for a bounded text box.

Updates a single property on the active text layer — content, font, size, color, alignment, tracking, leading, or warp. Targets the currently active layer, so select the text layer first.

The POWER tool for layer effects. Supply any combination of effects — dropShadow, innerShadow, outerGlow, innerGlow, bevelEmboss, gradientOverlay, patternOverlay, satin, colorOverlay, stroke — and they are all applied in a single call. Omitted effects are left unchanged. This replaces a dozen individual effect tools.

Sets opacity, blend mode, and/or fill opacity on the active layer. Consolidates what was previously three separate tools.

Applies a destructive filter to the active layer. Supported: gaussian-blur, motion-blur, sharpen (unsharp mask), noise (add noise), radial-blur. Supply the filter type and its specific params object.

Creates a NON-DESTRUCTIVE adjustment layer above the active layer. Supports curves, levels, hue-saturation, color-balance, gradient-map, solid-color, photo-filter, brightness-contrast, and invert. Supply the type and its specific params object.

Draws a vector shape on a new shape layer. Supports rectangle, rounded-rectangle, ellipse, line, polygon, star, and custom-path. Supply the type and its specific params.

Creates or modifies selections. Use "all" to select everything, "none" to deselect, "inverse" to invert, or create geometric / color-range selections. For rectangle/ellipse, provide bounds; for color-range, provide a sample color and fuzziness.

Creates or manages layer masks. "create" adds a reveal-all mask, "create-from-selection" adds a mask from the current selection, "apply" merges the mask into the layer, "delete" removes it.

Places an external image file into the active document. By default it is placed as a Smart Object for non-destructive editing. Optionally set position and dimensions.

Resizes the canvas (adds/removes space around content) or the image (resamples all content). Use "canvas" to change document bounds without scaling, or "image" to scale everything.

Manages foreground and background colors. "set-foreground" / "set-background" set the app color (provide color). "swap" swaps foreground and background. "sample-pixel" reads the color at the given x,y coordinate.

Manages document guides. "add" places a single guide at a position. "add-grid" creates an evenly-spaced grid of guides. "remove-all" clears all guides. "get" returns current guide positions.

Exports the active document to a file. Supports PNG (with optional scaling), JPEG (with quality), PSD, and TIFF. Provide an absolute file path.

Manages document history. "undo" steps backward (default 1 step), "redo" steps forward, "get-states" returns the list of history states. Use undo to recover from mistakes.

Manages Smart Objects. "convert" converts the active layer to a Smart Object for non-destructive editing. "place-file" embeds an external file as a new Smart Object layer.

HIGH-LEVEL workflow tool that creates an entire design in a single call. Specify a document preset, background (solid/gradient/image), an array of layers (text, image, shape), and optional guides. Generates and executes ONE script for the whole composition. Perfect for quickly scaffolding social media posts, thumbnails, or print layouts.

Executes multiple tool operations in sequence within a single call. Each operation specifies a tool name and its arguments. Results are returned as a combined array. Use this to chain several steps without round-trips.

Takes a screenshot of the current document via ExtendScript and returns it as base64-encoded image data alongside the full document state and a design analysis score (0-100) covering color harmony, contrast/WCAG, typography hierarchy, and composition balance. This is the visual feedback loop tool — use it after making changes to verify the result looks correct.

Runs arbitrary ExtendScript code directly in Photoshop. This is the escape hatch for anything the other tools cannot do. The script string is passed to Photoshop as-is. Use with care — there are no guardrails. Returns whatever the script evaluates to.

Generate and work with color palettes. Four actions: "generate" — create a harmony from a base hex color; "from-mood" — pick a curated palette for a design mood; "from-image" — extract dominant colors from the active document/layer; "from-brand" — return the official palette for a known brand (jaipuria, rentdraft).

Font pairing, installation, and size recommendations. Three actions: "suggest" — get a curated font pairing for a mood + purpose combination; "install" — download and install a Google Fonts family to the system; "auto-size" — calculate optimal font sizes for a document (reads dimensions if not provided).

Apply a pre-built visual effect recipe to the active layer. Choose a specific recipe by name, or provide a mood to get the best matching recipe automatically. Recipes combine multiple layer styles and adjustments for polished results in one call.
