About
Open-source autonomous design agent — alternative to Lovart, Krea, and Galileo. Generates posters, brand kits, ad creatives, and short video.
What it does
A browser-based creative workspace turns a campaign brief into an editable production plan. It selects image or video models by task, generates dependent assets in sequence, carries brand references between steps, and groups the results for download. Users can interrupt, replace models, lock outputs, edit intermediate work, or resume a forked plan.
Why it's ranked here
The strongest case is breadth joined to control. One brief can drive static and motion work while exposing plans, model choices, and intermediate assets. Self-hosting and an MIT license make the interface adaptable. However, generation still depends on Muapi services, so this is not a fully local creative stack.
What's good
Model routing accounts for the job instead of treating every prompt alike. Typography, vectors, photoreal imagery, editing, and motion can use different model classes. Brand palettes, fonts, logos, tone, and reference images carry across campaign assets. The same workspace also supports manual intervention rather than forcing an all-or-nothing autonomous run.
Tradeoffs
Running the application requires both a Node.js client and Python server, plus a Muapi API key. Uploaded media is sent through a proxy to Muapi storage, and generation relies on Muapi-backed models. Browser history uses local storage, which is convenient but weaker than a shared project database for teams or multiple devices.
How to use it well
Use it for campaign exploration when one brief must produce coordinated images, edits, mockups, and short motion pieces. Start with a brand kit, inspect the proposed dependencies, then lock strong assets before later generations reuse them. It does not replace fully offline inference, collaborative asset management, or a conventional production design suite.
Technical notes+
The repository is an npm monorepo declared in package.json, with client, server, and packages/* workspaces. packages/design-agent/src/index.js exports CreativeCanvas, CanvasArea, and PlanVisualizer as the reusable UI surface. client/app/canvas/page.js mounts CreativeCanvas inside a Next.js client page, while client/next.config.mjs rewrites /api/:path* to a local FastAPI service. server/app/main.py registers creative-agent routes, permits CORS from http://localhost:3000, and exposes root and health endpoints. client/app/page.js creates sessions, registers uploaded assets, starts chat or skill runs, and uploads binaries through proxy endpoints to cdn.muapi.ai. client/context/ApiContext.js uses a placeholder client key while requesting account data from the local backend, indicating that the operational Muapi credential belongs on the server side.
