cli-anything-gimp
A stateful command-line interface for image editing, built on Pillow. Designed for AI agents and power users who need to create and manipulate images without a GUI.
Installation
This CLI is installed as part of the cli-anything-gimp package:
pip install cli-anything-gimpPrerequisites:
- Python 3.10+
- gimp is recommended for native batch rendering, but layered compositions can
still render through the built-in Pillow path when GIMP is unavailable or when
deferred draw operations are present
