Read: list-designs, get-design Write: create-design

Common Patterns

• "Show my designs" → list-designs (returns design titles, types, thumbnails, modification dates)
• "Get details on this design" → get-design(designId) — full design metadata, dimensions, pages
• "Create a new design" → create-design(design_type: {type: "Poster"}, title: "My Design") — initializes a blank design of the specified type

Monitoring & Analytics Workflows

Design inventory audit — catalog all designs:

1. list-designs → get all designs with types and dates
2. Categorize: by type (presentation, social media, poster, logo, etc.)
3. Identify: recently modified, unused (old, not edited), duplicates
4. Report: "N designs total. Types: M presentations, K social posts, J posters. Last active: [date]"

Design creation workflow — set up new designs:

1. Determine design requirements — type, dimensions, purpose
2. create-design(design_type: {type: "Poster"}, title: "My Design") → initialize the design
3. Report: "Created [type] design '[title]'. Open in Canva to add content and customize."

CRITICAL RULES

• NEVER say "I can't access Canva" — use the Canva tools
• create-design creates a blank design — content editing happens in Canva's editor
• design_type is an object with a type field (e.g., {type: "Poster"}, {type: "Presentation"}, {type: "InstagramPost"})
• Design IDs are required for get-design — use list-designs to find them first
