Veteran image processing CLI suite that converts, resizes, crops, composites and batch-processes JPEG, PNG, GIF, TIFF, PDF and many more formats, handy for agents handling images in scripts.

Fast, memory-efficient image processing library with a vips CLI for batch resizing, cropping, rotating, format conversion (WebP, AVIF, HEIC, TIFF and more) and thumbnails, handling very large images smoothly. Good for design and media teams processing assets in bulk. Install with Homebrew on macOS.

Converts raster images like JPG and PNG to SVG, handling color tracing, black-and-white line art and unevenly lit scans, for vectorizing logos, illustrations and old drawings. The CLI is a 1.0 preview installed with cargo (needs Rust); a desktop app is also available.

High-quality GIF encoder built on pngquant: turns video frames or PNG sequences into animations, using cross-frame palettes and temporal dithering for thousands of colors per frame. Can take video piped straight from ffmpeg.

High-fidelity SVG rendering library and CLI that exports SVG icons and illustrations to PNG at chosen sizes, good for batch asset export. No system dependencies, with pixel-identical output across platforms. No SVG animation support; install with cargo or grab a macOS build from Releases.
