The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
preview Preview SVG ~282
Render SVG content to a PNG image so the AI can visually inspect the output. **When to use:** - render_svg already returns a preview image by default; call this tool to re-preview a stored artifact at a different width, or to preview SVG that did not come from render_svg - Stop iterating when the visual result matches the intent **Input:** pass EITHER artifact (id from render_svg, e.g. "art-1" — preferred, no SVG resend) OR content (raw SVG string). **Behavior:** - Returns a PNG image (base64) rendered from the SVG - Background is transparent by default - CSS animations and SMIL are rendered as a static snapshot (t=0) — motion is not captured **Width:** - Omit width to use the SVG's own declared width/viewBox - Pass width to scale the output (useful for small SVGs that need a larger preview)
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| artifact | string | – | Artifact id returned by render_svg (e.g. "art-1"). Preferred over content. |
| content | string | – | SVG string to render as PNG. Only needed when no artifact id exists. |
| format | string | – | Content format; auto-detected from content if omitted |
| width | number | – | Render width in pixels; defaults to SVG's own declared width |

render_svg Render SVG ~1,128
Render animated SVG from JSON config. AI controls all design parameters. **Workflow:** render_svg returns a PNG preview of the result plus an artifact id — critique the image, revise the config, render again. Iterate at least 3 times before finalizing. The SVG text stays on the server: pass the artifact id to save (and to preview for a different width). **output options (response shape, not content):** {"svg":false,"preview":true,"previewWidth":800,"minify":false,"frames":4} — all optional. minify:true collapses whitespace in the stored/saved SVG. frames:N (2-10) replaces the static preview with one filmstrip image sampling the CSS animations at N times — use it to verify motion (rotation direction, timing, easing) since a single preview only shows t=0. SMIL is not sampled. **Element types:** rect, circle, ellipse, line, polyline, polygon, path, image, text, textPath, group, use, radial-group, arc-group, grid-group, scatter-group, path-group, parametric **Pattern groups** (use for repetitive designs): radial-group (circular: cx, cy, radius, count), arc-group (arc: cx, cy, radius, count, startAngle, endAngle), grid-group (matrix: cols, rows, colSpacing, rowSpacing), scatter-group (random: width, height, count, seed), path-group (along polyline: waypoints, count). Each takes ONE "child" element. The child is drawn at the local origin and, with rotateChildren true (the default), rotates so local +x points outward from the center: draw spokes, rays and petals long along the x axis, never the y axis, or they render as a chord ring. **Parametric curves** (fn field): rose, heart, lissajous, spiral, star, superformula, epitrochoid, hypotrochoid, wave. Size via "scale" field. Server computes coordinates. **defs:** gradients (linear/radial, SMIL animated stops), filters (presets: glow, neon, blur, drop-shadow, glitch, chromatic-aberration, noise, outline, inner-shadow, emboss + 5 more), clipPaths, masks, patterns (tile fills), markers (arrowheads: triangle, arrow, circ…

save Save Content ~395
Save rendered content to disk. Format-aware: can save as text or render to raster image. IMPORTANT: Use this only AFTER iterating on the design with render_svg's preview images. Do not save on the first render. Preview and refine your work first. **Input:** pass EITHER artifact (id from render_svg, e.g. "art-1" — preferred, no SVG resend) OR content (raw string). **Format detection:** - 'auto' (default): infers format from file extension. .svg saves as text, .png renders to image. - 'svg': saves content as a UTF-8 text file - 'png': renders the content (assumed SVG) to a PNG image, then saves it If the file already exists, a numeric counter is appended before the extension to prevent overwriting: design.svg becomes design-1.svg, then design-2.svg. The actual saved path is returned in the response.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| artifact | string | – | Artifact id returned by render_svg (e.g. "art-1"). Preferred over content. |
| content | string | – | Raw content to save. Only needed when the content did not come from render_svg. |
| format | string | – | Output format. 'auto' infers from file extension (.svg saves as text, .png renders to image). 'svg' saves content as a UTF-8 text file. 'png' renders SVG content to a PNG image before saving. |
| outputPath | string | yes | File path to save to. The directory must already exist. If the file already exists, a numeric counter is appended before the extension: design.svg becomes design-1.svg, then design-2.svg, and so on.… |
| width | number | – | For raster formats (png): render width in pixels. Defaults to the source content's own declared dimensions. |
