## 🚀 Quick Start

### Test Locally (Recommended Before Deployment)

1. **Build the frontend**:
   ```bash
   npm install
   npm run build
   ```

2. **Install Python dependencies**:
   ```bash
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   playwright install chromium
   ```

3. **Start the MCP server**:
   ```bash
   python mcp_server_comprehensive.py
   ```

4. **Test in browser**:
   - Open `http://localhost:7860`
   - Open browser console (F12)
   - You should see: `✅ window.thumbnailAPI initialized and ready`

5. **Try the API**:
   ```javascript
   // In browser console:
   await window.thumbnailAPI.listLayouts()
   await window.thumbnailAPI.loadLayout('seriousCollab')
   await window.thumbnailAPI.exportCanvas()
   ```

6. **Test MCP endpoint**:
   ```bash
   curl -X POST http://localhost:7860/tools \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     -d '{"name":"layout_list","arguments":{}}'
   ```

## 🎯 What AI Agents Can Now Do

Your AI agent can:

1. **Start from scratch**:
   - Set canvas size
   - Choose background color
   - Add text with custom fonts, sizes, colors
   - Add images (Huggys or custom)
   - Position and style elements
   - Export final thumbnail

2. **Use templates**:
   - Load pre-designed layouts
   - Customize text content
   - Replace placeholders with custom logos
   - Adjust colors and styling
   - Export

3. **Complex workflows**:
   - Search online for images (if integrated with existing smart server)
   - Download and process assets
   - Compose multi-element designs
   - Apply consistent branding
   - Generate variations

4. **One-shot generation**:
   - Single `create_thumbnail` call
   - Provide layout, title, subtitle, mascot
   - Get finished thumbnail in 3-5 seconds

## 🔄 Comparison: Before vs After

### Before (mcp_server_smart.py)
- ❌ Limited to collaboration thumbnails
- ❌ Fixed workflow (logo fetch → layout → export)
- ⚠️ Only 3 tools available
- ⚠️ No direct object manipulation
- ⚠️ No custom layouts or text

### After (mcp_server_comprehensive.py + API)
- ✅ **ALL features accessible**
- ✅ **50+ API methods**
- ✅ **17+ MCP tools**
- ✅ **Complete object control**
- ✅ **Custom workflows**
- ✅ **Human-like capabilities**

## 🎨 Usage Examples

### Example 1: Simple Text Thumbnail

```javascript
// Via window.thumbnailAPI
await window.thumbnailAPI.setCanvasSize('1200x675')
await window.thumbnailAPI.setBgColor('#f0f0f0')
await window.thumbnailAPI.addObject({
  type: 'text',
  text: 'Hello AI!',
  fontSize: 72,
  fontFamily: 'Bison',
  bold: true,
  x: 100,
  y: 100
})
const result = await window.thumbnailAPI.exportCanvas()
// result.dataUrl contains base64 image
```

### Example 2: Layout-Based Thumbnail

```javascript
await window.thumbnailAPI.loadLayout('funCollab')
await window.thumbnailAPI.updateText('title-text', 'AI-Generated Thumbnail')
await window.thumbnailAPI.addHuggy('game-jam-huggy', {x: 800, y: 300})
await window.thumbnailAPI.exportCanvas()
```

### Example 3: Via MCP (AI Agent)

```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:7860/tools -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
  "name": "create_thumbnail",
  "arguments": {
    "layout_id": "seriousCollab",
    "title": "HuggingFace x OpenAI",
    "bg_color": "light",
    "canvas_size": "1200x675"
  }
}'
```

Returns complete thumbnail in one call!

## 🚢 Deployment Options

### Option 1: Keep Both Servers

- Deploy `mcp_server_smart.py` for simple logo-fetching workflows
- Deploy `mcp_server_comprehensive.py` for full control
- Let AI agents choose based on task

### Option 2: Use Comprehensive Server Only

- Update `Dockerfile` to use `mcp_server_comprehensive.py`
- Provides superset of smart server functionality
- Single deployment, all features

### Option 3: Hybrid Approach

- Add logo-fetching to comprehensive server
- Combine best of both worlds
- Most powerful but requires integration work
