Reverse engineered prompt

Build me a tool that lets an AI coding agent draw pixel art directly inside the Aseprite window I already have open.

I want to be able to type something like “make a 32 by 32 knight in a retro palette with a simple idle animation” and have the agent connect to Aseprite, inspect what is on screen, draw it one step at a time, review its own work, fix mistakes, animate when needed, and export things like spritesheets, GIFs, or PNGs. It should never quietly edit some other file behind my back, and it should always let me undo each change in Aseprite.

Please make it work nicely with common agent setups like Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and Gemini, and include a headless mode too for batch jobs or CI. I’d also like a small gallery or example area, plus a way to check that everything is installed correctly. If you need current docs for Aseprite or MCP, look them up online.

Are you gonna build this?
