Description

We recently built 2draw, a Drawful-style game where players draw on a shared canvas and race to guess each other's drawings, on tldraw, an infinite-canvas SDK for React.We started wondering what it would take to put an agent in that loop, as an opponent or a rival guesser, and dug into how an agent could read and draw on a tldraw canvas. That research turned into:Agent draw, a tool that lets an agent draw to the canvas for you while you present.You can try it right now, or grab the source:- Live demo: https://tldraw-agent-draw-demo.james-664.workers.dev- Source: https://github.com/ritza-co/tldraw-agent-draw-demoHere you can see the agent assisting me in my demo presentation of a third grade chemistry class:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIH2hJAxxm8

Could you build this?

Yes It combines tldraw's canvas SDK, speech-to-text APIs (like Whisper or Web Speech), and an LLM agent that outputs structured tldraw shape mutations.
