Stanlee

Native Pencil2D automation for external AI clients through MCP and a shared CLI.

Under development; no qualified alpha or stable release yet. Stock Pencil2D provides CLI export. Live editor control requires a separately built, explicitly enabled Pencil2D–Stanlee application. The bridge is optional and disabled by default; it contains no Python or AI runtime.

The complete scope and acceptance gates are in the build plan. Implementation, tests, platform qualification, client qualification, and release publication are tracked independently. A listed operation is not proof of native implementation or acceptance.

Python 3.11+ is required; development uses Python 3.12 and official MCP SDK 2.3.0.

python3.12 -m venv .venv
.venv/bin/python -m pip install -r requirements.lock
.venv/bin/python -m pip install --no-deps -e .
.venv/bin/stanlee --help

Pencil2D source and application changes live in splitintech/pencil. Builds start from upstream revision 408563a37068daf7f1b4c6a9291daef039be8cb5.

The development command set supports authenticated sessions, native inspection, layers, keyframes, strokes, undo/redo, previews, save/reopen, independent snapshots and validated saved/snapshot export jobs. Full editor coverage is unfinished. See current status and setup.
