The SVG Lab MCP houses SVG Lab's Design Engine: you bring the product, the content and the direction, and the Design Engine does the design work (layout, spacing, type, colour and drawing) and checks each screen before it is handed over.\n\nWhat you can ask for:\n- App and web screens, laid out on artboards with consistent spacing, type and colour\n- Icon sets and illustrations, drawn point by point as vectors\n- Charts, and layouts with stock photos from Unsplash or Pexels, credited to the photographer\n- Changes to earlier work: open a saved project and carry on\n- The SVG of any artboard, ready to use in your app or site\n\nWhere the work goes: everything is saved as a project in your SVG Lab account, under My Projects. Open it in the SVG Lab editor at svglab.app to adjust it by hand, or ask for the SVG.\n\nWho it is for: people who build apps and sites but do not design, and anyone who wants finished vector design from a plain description instead of design vocabulary.\n\nLimits:\n- You need an SVG Lab account. You sign in and approve the connection; the app never sees your password.\n- Access to the SVG Lab MCP and the number of requests depend on your SVG Lab account.\n- The first request after a pause can take up to 30 seconds while your editor opens on SVG Lab's servers.\n- It makes vector artwork. It does not generate photographs or other raster images.",
