### Shipped so far
|
||||
- **Architecture:** 19+ crates with enforced layering (`cargo xtask layers`). Every action is a command (~400 engine + ~50 UI). Undo is unlimited via structural sharing. `command.batch` runs several commands as one transaction.
|
||||
- **Automation:**
|
||||
- Actions panel (record/playback, persisted), generic parameter dialogs for every "…" command.
|
||||
- JSON-lines control channel with real egui pointer and keyboard injection.
|
||||
- MCP server with 19 tools, which can attach to the running app or run headless.
|
||||
- Headless CLI (`drawcraft-cli`).

|
||||
- Live effects with previewing dialogs: Distort & Transform, Path, Convert to Shape, 15 Warp styles, Round Corners, Scribble, and raster drop shadow, glows and feather.

## Out of scope (by design or by law)
|
||||
- **Native `.ai` private data:** it's undocumented. We read the PDF-compatible part, so Illustrator-only live objects arrive as appearance.
