## What it is
Cowart is a Codex plugin that provides a native infinite canvas widget built on tldraw for brainstorming, annotating images, and AI-driven image generation. It exposes MCP tools and skills so Codex can read canvas selections, generate images or single-file HTML from prompts and annotations, and persist canvas data in the user's project directory.

## Use cases
- generate images from prompts on an infinite canvas inside Codex
- annotate screenshots and have AI produce clean revised images
- create AI-generated single-file HTML widgets on a canvas
- build AI-generated slide presentations with 16:9 HTML pages
- persist canvas pages and image assets in a project directory
- use MCP tools to read canvas selection state and insert images or HTML

## When to choose
- you use Codex and want a visual canvas for ideation and image iteration
- you need annotation-driven image editing workflows with an AI agent
- you want AI-generated HTML slides or embeddable HTML without leaving your editor

## When to avoid
- you don't use Codex or an MCP-compatible agent host
- you need a standalone drawing app independent of an AI coding agent
- you require non-JavaScript or non-widget-based canvas tooling
