Command-line interface for MiniMax AI — chat (MiniMax-M3) and TTS (speech-2.8-hd) via the MiniMax API.
Capability-based multi-tool matrix for 3D modeling, CAD, point clouds, rendering, GPU debugging, and fabrication. Covers mesh/parametric/photogrammetry and the path from idea to printed part or game-ready asset.
Capability-based multi-tool matrix for game development: engine, 3D/2D/audio assets, AI-generated assets, agent playtesting, packaging, store publishing, and telemetry.
Capability-based multi-tool matrix for image and graphic design: AI generation, raster/vector editing, UI mockups, diagrams, upscaling, photo library, and publishing.
Capability-based multi-tool matrix for research, note-taking, document authoring, and publishing. Agents compose providers (CLI-Anything harnesses, public CLIs, Python libs, native binaries, cloud APIs) per capability.
Capability-based multi-tool matrix for video production. Agents pick providers (CLI-Anything harnesses, public CLIs, Python libs, native binaries, cloud APIs) per capability rather than marching through fixed stages, including storyboard planning, story/audio direction, source triage, internet video/music search/download, capture/generation, analysis, sound design, high-end caption design, NLE/render doctor investigation, review, and packaging.

A stateful command-line interface for vector graphics editing, following the same patterns as the GIMP and Blender CLI harnesses. Directly manipulates SVG (XML) documents with a JSON project format for state tracking.
This CLI is installed as part of the cli-anything-inkscape package:
pip install cli-anything-inkscape
Prerequisites:
# Show help
cli-anything-inkscape --help
# Start interactive REPL mode
cli-anything-inkscape
# Create a new document
cli-anything-inkscape document new -o project.json
# Run with JSON output (for agent consumption)
cli-anything-inkscape --json document info -p project.json
When invoked without a subcommand, the CLI enters an interactive REPL session:
cli-anything-inkscape
# Enter commands interactively with tab-completion and history
You can also start the REPL with a nonexistent project path. The CLI now seeds a new in-memory document instead of failing immediately:
cli-anything-inkscape --project /abs/path/new-title.inkscape-cli.json
Document management commands.

Create a new inkscape project file.
cli-anything-inkscape document new -o myproject.json
# Or with JSON output for programmatic use
cli-anything-inkscape --json document new -o myproject.json
Start an interactive session with undo/redo support.
cli-anything-inkscape
# Enter commands interactively
# Use 'help' to see available commands
# Use 'undo' and 'redo' for history navigation
Export the project to a final output format.
cli-anything-inkscape --project myproject.json export pdf output.pdf --overwrite
For title cards, chips, and portrait-safe panels, prefer wrapped text boxes instead of manually inserting line breaks:
cli-anything-inkscape --project title.json text add \
--text "Real capture + Veo cold open + Gemini score + thumbnail plate" \
--x 180 --y 470 --font-size 118 \
--box-width 1180 --box-height 260 --line-height 1.05
cli-anything-inkscape --project title.json text set 0 box-width 980
cli-anything-inkscape --project title.json text set 0 line-height 1.15
Notes:
box-width wraps long copy into multiple exported SVG tspan lines.box-height lets long copy fail safely instead of running off-canvas.The CLI maintains session state with:
All commands support dual output modes:
--json flag): Structured JSON for agent consumption# Human output
cli-anything-inkscape project info -p project.json
# JSON output for agents
cli-anything-inkscape --json project info -p project.json
When using this CLI programmatically:
--json flag for parseable output1.0.0
