# Whip It Up

> A free, browser-only pixel art and GIF editor. Draw pixel art, animate it, convert a photo to
> pixel art, add a meme caption, export a PNG, an animated GIF, or a sprite sheet. Also generates
> realistic (non-pixelated) photos/memes and custom stickers/emojis from a prompt, via a real
> image model. No signup, no install, nothing leaves the visitor's browser until export.

  construct a pre-filled link without needing an API.
- [The editor itself](/): the live page.

A real MCP server is live at https://bitloop-app.web.app/mcp (Streamable HTTP transport,
stateless). Add it as a remote MCP server in Claude Desktop, Claude Code, or any other MCP
client. Tools: bitloop_generate, bitloop_share, bitloop_remix, bitloop_edit, bitloop_status,
bitloop_recent, bitloop_top, bitloop_lineage, bitloop_search, bitloop_daily_prompt,
bitloop_daily_recent. Call tools/list for the exact current schema; do not guess tool names from
the REST endpoint names below, they differ on purpose. A Discord `/pixelart` slash command and a
Telegram sticker-pack bot both exist in the codebase but are not live yet.

A real API is also live directly over plain REST: POST a text prompt or an image to
https://us-central1-whipitup-co.cloudfunctions.net/generatePixelArt and get pixel art back, no
browser needed. Add `"animate": true` and get a real animated GIF back too, built server-side
from one prompt. A second endpoint, /shareImage, turns any PNG or GIF into a real public link
with its own landing page (/s/<id>) carrying OpenGraph preview tags and a way back to the tool,
not a dead-end file URL. A third, /recentShares, lists the most recent public creations, also
shown live on the homepage. A fourth, /shareData, hands back the exact editable pixel grid for
any share that has one, the same data the site's own "Remix this" button uses to load someone
else's creation straight into the editor. A fifth, /dailyShares, lists submissions for the daily
prompt shown on the homepage (one theme a day, picked deterministically, no cron job). Add
`"style": "realistic"` to /generatePixelArt for a real (non-pixelated) photo/meme instead of pixel
art, with optional `top`/`bottom` captions; add `"sticker": true` in either style for a
background-removed 512px sticker/emoji. Full request/response shapes in skill.md. A Telegram
sticker-pack bot exists in the codebase but is not live yet.
