+
+Statement of Purpose
+
+The laws of most jurisdictions throughout the world automatically confer
+exclusive Copyright and Related Rights (defined below) upon the creator and
+subsequent owner(s) (each and all, an "owner") of an original work of
+authorship and/or a database (each, a "Work").
+
+Certain owners wish to permanently relinquish those rights to a Work for the
+purpose of contributing to a commons of creative, cultural and scientific
+works ("Commons") that the public can reliably and without fear of later
+claims of infringement build upon, modify, incorporate in other works, reuse
+and redistribute as freely as possible in any form whatsoever and for any
+purposes, including without limitation commercial purposes. These owners may
+contribute to the Commons to promote the ideal of a free culture and the
+further production of creative, cultural and scientific works, or to gain
+reputation or greater distribution for their Work in part through the use and
+efforts of others.
+
+For these and/or other purposes and motivations, and without any expectation
+of additional consideration or compensation, the person associating CC0 with a
+Work (the "Affirmer"), to the extent that he or she is an owner of Copyright
+and Related Rights in the Work, voluntarily elects to apply CC0 to the Work
+and publicly distribute the Work under its terms, with knowledge of his or her
+Copyright and Related Rights in the Work and the meaning and intended legal
+effect of CC0 on those rights.
+
+1. Copyright and Related Rights. A Work made available under CC0 may be
+protected by copyright and related or neighboring rights ("Copyright and
+Related Rights"). Copyright and Related Rights include, but are not limited
+to, the following:
+
+  i. the right to reproduce, adapt, distribute, perform, display, communicate,
+  and translate a Work;
+
+  ii. moral rights retained by the original author(s) and/or performer(s);
+
+  iii. publicity and privacy rights pertaining to a person's image or likeness
+  depicted in a Work;
+
+  iv. rights protecting against unfair competition in regards to a Work,
+  subject to the limitations in paragraph 4(a), below;
+
+  v. rights protecting the extraction, dissemination, use and reuse of data in
+  a Work;
+
+  vi. database rights (such as those arising under Directive 96/9/EC of the
+  European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 1996 on the legal
+  protection of databases, and under any national implementation thereof,
+  including any amended or successor version of such directive); and
+
+  vii. other similar, equivalent or corresponding rights throughout the world
+  based on applicable law or treaty, and any national implementations thereof.
+
+2. Waiver. To the greatest extent permitted by, but not in contravention of,
+applicable law, Affirmer hereby overtly, fully, permanently, irrevocably and
+unconditionally waives, abandons, and surrenders all of Affirmer's Copyright
+and Related Rights and associated claims and causes of action, whether now
+known or unknown (including existing as well as future claims and causes of
+action), in the Work (i) in all territories worldwide, (ii) for the maximum
+duration provided by applicable law or treaty (including future time
+extensions), (iii) in any current or future medium and for any number of
+copies, and (iv) for any purpose whatsoever, including without limitation
+commercial, advertising or promotional purposes (the "Waiver"). Affirmer makes
+the Waiver for the benefit of each member of the public at large and to the
+detriment of Affirmer's heirs and successors, fully intending that such Waiver
+shall not be subject to revocation, rescission, cancellation, termination, or
+any other legal or equitable action to disrupt the quiet enjoyment of the Work
+by the public as contemplated by Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose.
+
+3. Public License Fallback. Should any part of the Waiver for any reason be
+judged legally invalid or ineffective under applicable law, then the Waiver
+shall be preserved to the maximum extent permitted taking into account
+Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose. In addition, to the extent the Waiver
+is so judged Affirmer hereby grants to each affected person a royalty-free,
+non transferable, non sublicensable, non exclusive, irrevocable and
+unconditional license to exercise Affirmer's Copyright and Related Rights in
+the Work (i) in all territories worldwide, (ii) for the maximum duration
+provided by applicable law or treaty (including future time extensions), (iii)
+in any current or future medium and for any number of copies, and (iv) for any
+purpose whatsoever, including without limitation commercial, advertising or
+promotional purposes (the "License"). The License shall be deemed effective as
+of the date CC0 was applied by Affirmer to the Work. Should any part of the
+License for any reason be judged legally invalid or ineffective under
+applicable law, such partial invalidity or ineffectiveness shall not
+invalidate the remainder of the License, and in such case Affirmer hereby
+affirms that he or she will not (i) exercise any of his or her remaining
+Copyright and Related Rights in the Work or (ii) assert any associated claims
+and causes of action with respect to the Work, in either case contrary to
+Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose.

+
+**Create, edit, validate, and export pixel art and sprite animations with AI agents.**
+
+SPA brings Aseprite to your agent workflows through a CLI, Agent Skill, or MCP server.
+Keep editable `.aseprite` sources and deliver PNGs, GIFs, sprite sheets, and tile assets.

+
+## TL;DR
+
+Tell your AI agent:
+
+> Read the SPA Skill, check my installed SPA and Aseprite, and create a small pixel art
+> animation. Keep the editable `.aseprite` source, validate its frames and timing,
+> export a sprite sheet, and show me the result before calling it done.
+
+New to SPA? Follow [Installation](#installation), then
+[install the Skill](#agent-skill) for your agent. The same work can also use the CLI
+directly or an MCP client.

+
+## Why SPA?
+
+- **Keep your assets editable.** Work with native Aseprite layers, frames, cels, and
+  tags. Retain the source for later revisions alongside exports for your game.
+- **Control the animation.** Set frame timing, position, opacity, and motion on
+  existing cels. Use explicit requests to make repeatable workflow steps.
+- **Bring your own artwork.** Prepare external PNGs with palette, transparency,
+  size, and anchor choices, then import compatible images for animation.
+- **Check what changed.** Inspect saved assets, validate expected facts, compare
+  frames, and preview results. Structured results help agents handle failures.
+- **Choose your agent connection.** Use shell commands, reusable Skill guidance,
+  or an Aseprite MCP server with the same underlying operations.
+
+SPA runs Aseprite in batch mode. You do not need to drive the editor UI for supported
+operations. Art direction, visual review, and downstream game integration remain
+part of your workflow.
+
+## What can you build?
+
+| Your goal | SPA can help with | Start with |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Create reusable pixel art assets | Sprites, layers, frames, cels, tags, slices, and editable native files | `sprite`, `layer`, `frame`, `cel`, `tag`, `slice` |
+| Prepare and edit artwork | PNG preparation and import, image transforms, selections, native paint and filters | `raster`, `image`, `selection`, `paint`, `filter` |
+| Animate and inspect motion | Frame timing, cel placement, motion curves, animation checks, frame comparison, previews | `motion`, `animation`, `frame`, `cel` |
+| Work with colors and tiles | Palettes, color modes and profiles, keyed tiles, tilesets, and tilemap regions | `palette`, `sprite`, `tileset`, `tilemap` |
+| Deliver assets to a game | PNG images, GIFs, PNG sequences, sprite sheets with JSON, and tileset/map exports | `export` |
+| Automate a sequence of edits | Supported edits to one sprite, checked before one final save | `plan check`, `plan run` |
+
+This overview describes the development version. Use `spa --help` and each command's
+`--schema` for your installation. `spa info` checks your Aseprite runtime;
+`spa schema` also reports unavailable native capabilities.
+
+## Installation
+
+You need **Python 3.13+**, [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/),
+and a separate [Aseprite installation](https://www.aseprite.org/). SPA does not bundle
+the Aseprite executable.
+
+The upcoming PyPI package is **`aseprite-automation`**; the command is **`spa`**.
+The [first PyPI publication](https://github.com/aigengame/aseprite-automation/issues/189)
+is pending. For the current development version, use the source install below.
+
+### Install the current development version
+
+Install [Git LFS](https://git-lfs.com/), then run:
+
+```sh
+git clone --branch dev https://github.com/aigengame/aseprite-automation.git
+cd aseprite-automation
+git lfs install
+git lfs pull
+uv tool install --python 3.13 .
+spa version
+```
+
+You can also install a wheel from a
+[GitHub Release](https://github.com/aigengame/aseprite-automation/releases) with
+`uv tool install /absolute/path/to/the-wheel.whl`. Published releases may provide
+fewer capabilities than the current development version.
+
+The repository is currently private, so cloning requires access. Git LFS retrieves
+the native probe fixtures and example assets. If `spa` is not on `PATH`, run
+`uv tool update-shell` and open a new shell.
+
+### PyPI installation after the first publication
+
+```sh
+uv tool install aseprite-automation
+spa version
+uv tool upgrade aseprite-automation
+```
+
+For MCP, install the optional extra: `uv tool install 'aseprite-automation[mcp]'`.
+For source development, use `uv sync` and `uv run spa`; see the
+[usage guide](https://github.com/aigengame/aseprite-automation/blob/dev/docs/usage.md).
+
+## Quick start
+
+Point SPA at your Aseprite executable. On macOS, use the binary inside
+`Aseprite.app/Contents/MacOS/`, rather than the `.app` directory.
+
+```sh
+export SPA_ASEPRITE_EXECUTABLE="/absolute/path/to/aseprite"
+spa info
+```
+
+Use a new working directory for these commands. They create a 32×32 sprite, draw a
+purple disk on a transparent layer, export a PNG, and check the saved dimensions.
+Existing destinations are refused.
+
+**1. Create an editable source.**
+
+```sh
+spa sprite create --input-json '{
+  "target_sprite_file":"canvas.aseprite","overwrite":false,
+  "width":32,"height":32,"color_mode":"rgb",
+  "initial_layer":{"kind":"transparent"}
+}'
+```
+
+**2. Draw on the first layer and frame.**
+
+```sh
+spa paint ellipse --input-json '{
+  "source_sprite_file":"canvas.aseprite","target_sprite_file":"orb.aseprite",
+  "in_place":false,"overwrite":false,
+  "target":{"layer":{"layer_path":[1]},"frame_number":1},
+  "coordinate_space":"image-pixel",
+  "bounds":{"x":8,"y":8,"width":16,"height":16},"style":"filled",
+  "brush":{"kind":"circle","size":1},
+  "color":{"kind":"rgba","red":166,"green":104,"blue":255,"alpha":255},
+  "ink":"simple","opacity":255
+}'
+```
+
+**3. Export the image.**
+
+```sh
+spa export image --input-json '{
+  "source_sprite_file":"orb.aseprite",
+  "destination":{"path":"orb.png","if_exists":"fail"},"frame_number":1,
+  "export_image_area":{"kind":"canvas"},"layer_composition":{"mode":"visible"},
+  "composition_color_mode":"rgb","color_mode":"preserve",
+  "color_profile":"preserve","transparency":"preserve"
+}'
+```
+
+**4. Check the saved source and view `orb.png`.**
+
+```sh
+spa sprite validate --input-json '{
+  "sprite_file":"orb.aseprite",
+  "expected":{"width":32,"height":32,"color_mode":"rgb","frame_count":1}
+}'
+```
+
+Commands return JSON by default; add `--human` for readable output. For validation,
+check `valid`, `checks`, and `findings`: `status: success` means the check ran.
+Visual quality still needs a look at the exported image.
+
+Continue with the [usage guide](https://github.com/aigengame/aseprite-automation/blob/dev/docs/usage.md)
+for animation, import, paint, color, tile, and export recipes. Use `--help` and
+`--schema` to discover fields without guessing.
+
+## Choose your integration
+
+| Access path | Best for | Entry point |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| **CLI** | Agents that run shell commands, scripts, and asset pipelines | `spa --help` |
+| **Agent Skill** | Agents that need reusable guidance for the create–verify–export loop | [SPA Skill](https://github.com/aigengame/aseprite-automation/blob/dev/skills/spa/SKILL.md) |
+| **MCP** | Clients that discover and call tools, with exported PNGs shown as image content | [MCP setup](https://github.com/aigengame/aseprite-automation/blob/dev/docs/mcp.md) |
+
+### Agent Skill
+
+From your consuming project, install the Skill with the
+[Skills CLI](https://github.com/vercel-labs/skills). Node/npm is required.
+For the current development version, point it at your SPA checkout:
+
+```sh
+npx skills add /absolute/path/to/aseprite-automation --skill spa
+```
+
+Once the Skill is on the repository's default branch, the equivalent source is:
+
+```sh
+npx skills add aigengame/aseprite-automation --skill spa
+```
+
+The Skills CLI manages installation and updates. The Skill reads the installed
+SPA help and schemas. It does not install SPA or Aseprite and does not add a
+separate compatibility or version manager.
+
+### MCP
+
+From the current source checkout, install with `uv sync --extra mcp`, then configure
+your client to launch that checkout's `.venv/bin/spa-mcp`. Follow
+[MCP setup](https://github.com/aigengame/aseprite-automation/blob/dev/docs/mcp.md) for the stdio configuration.
+
+Normal CLI use does not need the MCP extra. The MCP server uses the same operations
+and results; it does not keep an active sprite between calls.
+
+## Examples
+
+[![Animated pixel art wizard casting a spell, exported through SPA](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aigengame/aseprite-automation/1ca5e1f4cd7587cf351ddcd1a16122f47d3f8ba0/examples/wizard_cast_v2/evidence/scene-loop.webp)](https://github.com/aigengame/aseprite-automation/blob/dev/examples/wizard_cast_v2/README.md)
+
+*Moonlit Spell Practice v2: imagegen artwork, Python motion assembly, and SPA animation
+and export. This preview uses exported PNG frames; the example also includes a playable
+Godot project.*
+
+Both wizard examples keep editable Aseprite sources and exported components.
+Their Godot projects use those assets for a spell-timing game: cast at a moving
+target, complete a round, and replay.
+
+| Example | Workflow | What to inspect |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| [Wizard v1](https://github.com/aigengame/aseprite-automation/blob/dev/examples/wizard_cast/README.md) | Procedural pixel and pose sampling → SPA → Godot | A 128×96 scene, a 32-frame loop, reusable components, and a playable consumer |
+| [Wizard v2](https://github.com/aigengame/aseprite-automation/blob/dev/examples/wizard_cast_v2/README.md) | imagegen concepts and key poses → preparation and motion assembly → SPA → Godot | A 384×288 scene, seven editable `.aseprite` assets, exported PNG components, and a playable consumer |
+
+SPA authors and exports the animation; imagegen supplies v2's initial artwork.
+[gda](https://github.com/aigengame/godot-agent) handles Godot verification.
+Each example records its preparation choices, validation evidence, and dogfooding feedback.
+
+You can inspect the committed assets or open the Godot project without rebuilding
+all assets. Full rebuilds are optional local checks; see each example's instructions
+and [testing guide](https://github.com/aigengame/aseprite-automation/blob/dev/docs/testing.md).
