Authoritative reference for submitting tdmcp to the Anthropic Connectors Directory as a Codex Desktop Extension (MCPB). Use whenever drafting, checking, or fixing the submission — it defines the two submission paths, why tdmcp is a Desktop Extension (never a remote connector), every form field, the rejection-causing…
How to migrate the tdmcp Codex Desktop bundle from legacy .dxt to .mcpb (MCP Bundle) and keep it building — covers the manifest schema (verify against the installed packer, never hardcode), the build-mcpb.mjs packer/zip-fallback flow, the npm scripts, and the full .dxt→.mcpb reference sweep across docs and scripts.…
Verification methodology and gate checklist for the tdmcp Connectors Directory submission — run the docs build, build and inspect the .mcpb bundle, sweep for stale .dxt references, and cross-check the form-answer draft against the real requirements. Use to validate the submission package before a human submits, by…
Implement ONE tdmcp tool from a spec — the canonical file pattern (Zod schema + …Impl + register… ToolRegistrar), a bridge Python payload via buildPayloadScript, and an offline msw unit test — touching only new files, never shared registries. Use when coding/implementing/writing a tdmcp tool, generator, effect…
Design a tdmcp feature into an implementable spec before any code is written — choose the layer, define the Zod input schema, lay out the TD network topology, plan the bridge/Python approach, sketch a UI wireframe when relevant, and list probe-first risks + the test plan. Use whenever a tdmcp feature idea needs a…
Wire builders' isolated tdmcp tool files into the shared registries, CLI, and docs as a single writer, conflict-safe, and confirm a green typecheck + build. Use when integrating/wiring/registering new tdmcp tools, adding their CLI commands, resolving build breaks after parallel feature work, or merging several…
Quality-assure integrated tdmcp features: run the four PR gates + recipe/bridge tests, cross-boundary coherence checks (tool schema↔CLI↔docs↔registry, operator↔createable, bridge↔client), and live TouchDesigner validation (preview + post-cook error check) when the bridge is reachable. Use when…
Release tdmcp: write the Keep-a-Changelog entry, bump the SemVer version across every manifest, then (autonomously, per project policy) commit, tag, and push — gated on a td-qa PASS, with hard git safety rails. Use when releasing/shipping/cutting a tdmcp version, writing the CHANGELOG, bumping the version, or tagging…
Survey one surface of tdmcp (artist controls, library/packaging, CLI/DX, AI/LLM, or TouchDesigner depth) for candidate NEW features — inventory what exists, cross-check the roadmap, apply the gap-finding lenses, vet each idea, and emit a structured, novelty- and confidence-labelled candidate list to…
Consolidate the five tdmcp surveyor reports into one prioritized FEATUREBACKLOG.md — dedupe cross-surface overlaps, reconcile every candidate against the roadmap (NEW vs planned vs extension), rank by a selectable impact×effort weighting profile into P0/P1/P2 (high-confidence first), and emit per-surface tables + a…
Drive a whole tdmcp feature BACKLOG to completion as resumable, wave-by-wave releases — the campaign layer ABOVE tdmcp-pipeline/tdmcp-feature-lead. Use whenever the user wants to implement an ENTIRE backlog or discovery file (e.g. workspace/discovery/FEATUREBACKLOG.md), 'all the features', many features across…
Build a tdmcp TouchDesigner-bridge vertical slice the house way — promote an op from /api/exec to a first-class REST endpoint (e.g. POST /api/connect, GET /api/logs, nodedetail flags), add its typed method in src/td-client/touchDesignerClient.ts, its Zod envelope in src/td-client/validators.ts, rewire the tool(s) to…
Adds new visual examples to the tdmcp prompt cookbook documentation — both the English and Portuguese versions. Use when asked to: add more cookbook examples, create visual examples for the docs, show more surprising things you can do, add entries to the prompt cookbook, expand the cookbook, or any request to extend…
Write focused tdmcp tests for one assigned coverage gap. Use for Vitest/msw unit tests, integration tests, bridge tests, CLI/config/resource tests, and regression tests that should raise coverage without weakening behavior.
Updates tdmcp docs and roadmap for newly shipped or newly merged capabilities. Use when asked to update docs, update the roadmap, reconcile release docs, document new features, sync docs with CHANGELOG/package release, refresh cookbook examples after a feature wave, re-run/continue/fix a docs-roadmap pass, or check…
Survey the whole tdmcp project and produce a prioritized list of NEW features it could implement — across artist controls, CLI/DX, AI/LLM integration, and TouchDesigner depth. Use whenever the user wants to brainstorm, discover, survey, list, or audit what features/tools/effects/controls/commands/prompts/capabilities…
Study a merged or shipped tdmcp implementation and extract reusable learnings: code improvements, runtime/UX lessons, test gaps, docs updates, roadmap items, and harness changes. Use when the user asks to learn from a completed feature/project/PR/build, analyze what can be improved from an implementation, or turn a…
Orchestrates the dedicated Kinect wall harp implementation team. Use whenever the user asks to build, implement, continue, fix, QA, document, or ship the Kinect wall harp, Kinect v2 wall-depth harp, FreenectTD depth-blob hand tracking, projected wall strings, pluck synth harp, or this feature's Layer 1…
Orchestrates the tdmcp feature team end-to-end: design/wireframe → build → integrate → QA → release. Use whenever the user wants to build, implement, develop, ship, or add one or more tdmcp features/tools/effects/controls/AI-prompts for TouchDesigner, or to run them through a coordinated design→develop→QA→deploy…
Run or maintain the full tdmcp repo quality-audit team: command sweeps, all package/Makefile/CI gates, security review, usability/flow review, refactor/test-gap analysis, coverage hardening, QA, and follow-up fix waves. Use whenever the user asks for a complete audit, improve repo/code quality, test all commands, find…
Orchestrates the tdmcp Anthropic Connectors Directory (Desktop Extension / MCPB) submission prep — designs the package, writes the privacy page, migrates .dxt→.mcpb, drafts all form answers, and QAs the result. Use for ANY work on the tdmcp directory/marketplace submission, including re-runs after a rejection ("update…
Orchestrate any tdmcp test-coverage work: run the coverage harness, inspect coverage gaps, plan focused Vitest/msw or bridge tests, delegate coverage writers, verify coverage deltas, and re-run gates. Use whenever the user asks to raise coverage, add broad regression coverage, create a test harness, improve tests…
How to author one new tdmcp MCP tool the house way — the file shape (XImpl + registerX), the Python-bridge pattern (buildPayloadScript/parsePythonReport over executePythonScript), the result helpers (errorResult/guardTd/jsonResult/structuredResult), fail-forward error handling, ESM/.js + Biome style, and the offline…
How to add a page to the tdmcp VitePress docs site so it builds, gets a clean URL, and lands in the right nav — including the repo's partial-translation convention (only the artist guide is EN+PT; reference/legal pages are English). Use when authoring the privacy policy or any new docs page for tdmcp.
