## MCP tools (3)

### `render_word_cloud` (~587 tokens)

Render word cloud

Create a ShapeWords word cloud, wait for completion, and return the artifact URL plus optional image content.

Input parameters:

- `background` (string): Output background style. Canvas-profile default: white.
- `colorMode` (string)
- `customShapeDefinition` (object): Custom SVG shape definition used when shapeType is custom.
- `engine` (string): Renderer engine. auto uses the hosted renderer; skia uses the local MCP shared-core + CanvasKit renderer without server-side Chromium.
- `fillMode` (string): Shape filling strategy. Canvas-profile default: fill.
- `fontFamily` (string): ShapeWords font family name. Canvas-profile default: Montserrat.
- `format` (string): Output artifact format. Canvas-profile default: svg.
- `height` (integer): Canvas height in pixels. Canvas-profile default: 600.
- `locale` (string): ShapeWords UI/render locale. Canvas-profile default: en.
- `maxFontSize` (integer)
- `maxWords` (integer): Maximum number of words to lay out. Canvas-profile default: 700.
- `minFontSize` (integer)
- `padding` (integer): Word collision padding in pixels. Canvas-profile default: 3.
- `palette` (array)
- `pollIntervalMs` (integer)
- `pollTimeoutMs` (integer)
- `quality` (string): sq is faster, hq renders at higher device scale. Canvas-profile default: hq.
- `renderProfile` (string): Default option profile. canvas matches the main ShapeWords canvas; api keeps the older compact Render API defaults.
- `returnImage` (boolean): Download the artifact and return it as MCP image content when supported by the client.
- `returnLayout` (boolean): Include layout JSON when supported. Canvas-profile default: false.
- `rotationPreset` (string): Rotation preset matching the ShapeWords canvas. Canvas-profile default: orthogonal.
- `rotations` (array): Explicit rotation angles in degrees. When provided, these override rotationPreset.
- `seed` (integer): Unsigned 32-bit layout seed for reproducible browserless ShapeWords renders. Canvas-profile default: 0. Use engine auto or browserless; browser fallback does not support non-zero seed.
- `shapeType` (string): ShapeWords shape id, for example circle, rectangle, heart, star, cloud, diamond, custom. Canvas-profile default: cloud.
- `spiralType` (string): Placement spiral algorithm. Canvas-profile default: archimedean.
- `text` (string): Words, phrases, notes, or source text for the word cloud. Optional when words[] is provided.
- `width` (integer): Canvas width in pixels. Canvas-profile default: 800.
- `words` (array): Explicit weighted words. Use this when another system already tokenized, lemmatized, or scored the input.

### `create_word_cloud_job` (~529 tokens)

Create word cloud job

Start a ShapeWords render job and return status/artifact URLs without waiting for completion.

Input parameters:

- `colorMode` (string)
- `customShapeDefinition` (object): Custom SVG shape definition used when shapeType is custom.
- `engine` (string): Hosted renderer engine. auto uses the hosted renderer default path.
- `fillMode` (string): Shape filling strategy. Canvas-profile default: fill.
- `fontFamily` (string): ShapeWords font family name. Canvas-profile default: Montserrat.
- `format` (string): Output artifact format. Canvas-profile default: svg.
- `height` (integer): Canvas height in pixels. Canvas-profile default: 600.
- `locale` (string): ShapeWords UI/render locale. Canvas-profile default: en.
- `maxFontSize` (integer)
- `maxWords` (integer): Maximum number of words to lay out. Canvas-profile default: 700.
- `minFontSize` (integer)
- `padding` (integer): Word collision padding in pixels. Canvas-profile default: 3.
- `palette` (array)
