PhotoCraft is an open-source Photoshop rebuild: layers, masks, adjustment layers, type, vectors, real PSD files, and an MCP server so AI agents can drive it too. Early alpha.
- PhotoCraft is an open-source, clean-room Photoshop rebuild written entirely in Rust, covering layers, masks, adjustment layers, type, vectors, and real PSD files, running natively on macOS, Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, and in the browser via WebAssembly.
- It is early alpha and not yet a daily professional replacement, with gaps in AI/generative features, about twenty missing tools, and no plugin compatibility.
- The MCP server and 500-command registry mean any AI agent can drive the same engine as the UI, which is worth watching for automated photo and graphics workflows.
