A Krita plugin and MCP server expose document, layer and export operations. For Claude Code, 2 routes are explicitly documented by the integration maintainer.
A Krita plugin and MCP server expose document, layer and export operations.
Platforms: Windows, macOS, Linux
The maintainer documents Claude Code setup for this connection.
Krita 5.2+, Python 3.8+ and the companion plugin; advanced pixel/history tools need the documented native helper.
Pixel and history capabilities have stricter Linux Krita 6.0.4 Qt6/helper requirements than the basic tools.
Krita’s Python scripting and plugin framework support custom in-application automation.
Platforms: Windows, macOS, Linux
The native interface is documented, but no setup for this coding agent is established by this source.
Krita with Python plugin support and the relevant Scripter or custom plugin enabled.
The scripting framework requires a script or plugin; it does not by itself expose a coding-agent connection.
A Krita plugin and local MCP bridge for painting and image editing.
Platforms: Windows, macOS, Linux
MCP support suggests compatibility; this client is not documented by the maintainer.
Krita with Python plugins enabled, the supplied plugin, and a Python MCP server.
The bridge operates in a running Krita instance and requires the plugin to be enabled.
A local plugin and Python server let agents work on Krita documents.
Platforms: macOS, Windows, Linux
The integration documentation explicitly names this client.
Krita 5.2 or newer, Python 3.8 or newer and the Krita plugin.
The plugin must be enabled and Krita must be running.
| Integration | Claude Code compatibility | Requirements |
|---|---|---|
| Krita MCP | Documented setup Setup guide | Krita 5.2+, Python 3.8+ and the companion plugin; advanced pixel/history tools need the documented native helper. |
| Krita Python scripting | Not documented | Krita with Python plugin support and the relevant Scripter or custom plugin enabled. |
| Krita MCP · di404 | MCP compatibility (inferred) | Krita with Python plugins enabled, the supplied plugin, and a Python MCP server. |
| Krita MCP · SanSaSane | Documented setup Setup guide | Krita 5.2 or newer, Python 3.8 or newer and the Krita plugin. |
The sources establish the capabilities listed above, not complete application coverage. Check each bridge’s limitations and your application version before starting.
Choose a route that explicitly documents Claude Code and matches your environment. Start with the maintainer’s setup guide and a disposable project copy. Shared MCP support alone is listed as an inference.
