MCP Tools

The editor exposes its entire API through MCP (Model Context Protocol). Every operation available to a human is available to AI. 117 tools across 15 categories.

AI Workflow

1. Read — node_tree, find, analyze_*
2. Create/Modify — create_*, set_*, node_*, render (JSX)
3. Verify — export_screenshot → inspect the image
4. Iterate — diff_create to see changes, fix issues
5. Export — export_jsx, export_storybook for developer handoff
