Cli Anything Gimp
A stateful CLI for compositing images through Pillow, designed so AI agents can create and edit layered graphics without spinning up a GUI. You get layers, filters, canvas operations, and deferred draw commands that apply at render time. The dual output mode (human-readable tables or `--json` for parsing) makes it genuinely useful for both interactive sessions and programmatic workflows. Worth noting: despite the name, GIMP itself is optional. The tool has its own Pillow-based render path, so you can manipulate offset positions, blend modes, and text overlays even without the native app installed. The 50-level undo stack and REPL mode suggest someone actually thought about the agent use case instead of just wrapping existing commands.
