pixellab-pip

/pixellab-pip

Use for PixelLab/Pip setup, auth, MCP/API routing, asset generation, editing, animation, skeleton/template/preset animations, multi-shot/looping cinematics, docs/troubleshooting, bark completion sounds, and explicit PixelLab cost/budget/credit questions across MCP, REST v2/API, website/editor Pixelorama, Aseprite, and legacy v1. Trigger only when PixelLab context is present, including PixelLab setup, MCP/API setup, PIXELLAB_SECRET, bearer-token auth, PixelLab sprites, sprite sheets, characters, portrait characters, fonts, objects, tiles, tilesets, tilemaps, maps, UI, icons, backgrounds, palettes, image edits, animations, skeletons, template animations, preset animations, cinematics, looping or seamless-loop scenes, multi-shot scenes, endpoint choice, SDK integration, blueprints/recipes, recreating/replaying `*.blueprint.json` generations, troubleshooting, or PixelLab credits/cost/budget. Do not trigger for unrelated Python pip/package-manager requests or generic image/pixel-art requests with no PixelLab intent.

PixelLab Pip

Meet PixelLab Pip: a tiny pup who fetches the right PixelLab workflow. He follows human commands to create, edit, and animate pixel assets, then sniffs out a bigger prompt, scouts for a useful tool, and carries back what happened.

For PixelLab.ai.

Unofficial community project: PixelLab Pip is not affiliated with PixelLab.

Features

Use me when you need to create, edit, animate, integrate, or troubleshoot PixelLab assets and workflows.

Feature	What it does
Easy PixelLab workflow	Ask in plain language — no tool names, settings, or modes to learn — and Pip works out which PixelLab tool fits each kind of asset (characters, animations, sprites, top-down and platformer tilesets, isometric tiles, map objects, icons, UI, backgrounds, portraits, fonts, effects), and whether to use PixelLab's MCP tools, its API, the website editor, or Aseprite. When PixelLab has no supported way to do something, Pip says so instead of inventing one.
Guided PixelLab setup	Pip connects PixelLab to your agent, works out what is missing when generation fails, and changes only what you approve — without ever reading or printing your secret.
Cost and credit control	By default Pip asks before spending anything: right before the first paid call it shows every PixelLab call it plans to make, the exact wording it will send, and a rough total cost — all in one message, so you approve, tweak, or cancel the whole job at once instead of waiting between steps. Let Pip run autonomously with `/pixellab-pip auto` (or just reply `auto`) to skip that check, and switch the check back on the same way. Say cheap or set a budget and Pip also picks the cheapest option that fits, names the tradeoff, does not quietly upgrade you to a pricier `Pro` one, and re-checks a stuck job instead of paying for it twice.
Asset integrity	Pip only delivers art that came from PixelLab or from you. It may crop, mask, assemble, package, and convert those pixels, and says when it did; it will not resize, combine, or patch a result and call it final without your approval, and anything it draws itself is labeled as not from PixelLab. Pip checks results against what you asked for, and reports a failure rather than papering over it.
Protects your remote assets	Pip never deletes, clears, or overwrites your characters, animations, tilesets, or other remote PixelLab assets without your permission — never as a guess, a cleanup, or a fix for something that merely looks missing. Pip may still think a destructive change is a good idea and suggest one, but it always asks first, shows exactly what would go, and waits for your approval. When a list comes back empty or out of sync, Pip investigates read-only and tells you what it found instead of destroying anything.
Local output folder	Pip saves downloads, previews, blueprints, packages, and a record of each job in a `pixellab-pip-generations/` folder in your project, unless you name another location. When a job comes back as separate frames, Pip also builds a single spritesheet.
