Rapier plugins and packages

Plugins, npm packages and plug-in files for Rapier, a fast Markdown editor for notes, diagrams, drawing and watercolor painting in one HTML file. Android, Web and Windows. Phone-first and offline, with MCP and WebMCP for live work with agents. Optional encrypted sync uses your own Cloudflare account.

Start

1. Work live with a person. Connect an MCP client to https://mcp.rapier.website/mcp over streamable HTTP, then call open. Open the returned editor_url for the person. Read rapier://guide for editing, drawing, painting, comments, review and export. No account or key is required.
2. Hand over an offline document. npx rapier-html notes.md writes notes.rapier.html: the editor and its document in one file. Package.
3. Put Rapier in your app. npm install rapier-embed embeds the editor or the lightweight reader. Enable agent: true on the editor for your app's own agent over WebMCP. Your app owns storage; the reader is read-only. Embedding.
4. Keep rich documents in Markdown. npm install rapier-markdown-kit reads and writes pictures, editable drawings and layout in one .md file. Respect Will/1 regions: edit, append and keep. Self-contained Markdown.
5. Encode JPEG XL in JavaScript. npm install rapier-jxl adds the encoder that Rapier uses, in browsers, Node.js and other JavaScript runtimes. Encoder.
6. Run your own door. rapier-server serves Markdown from your folder or S3-compatible bucket through the same MCP tools. Supply Node.js and Chromium; start with rapier-server serve <folder> and the documented browser settings.

The agent edits live, beside the person or while they are away. Rapier shows its presence and changes; the person taps a change to see what was there before and undoes anything, keeping later edits. Use show {target:"comparison"} to deliberately show a diff. Read exact source before editing, and preserve the person's typing and Will. The agent guide lists the tools and their inputs.
