minipainter MCP

A local-first CLI and MCP server for miniature-paint inventory and cross-brand color matching. It allows AI agents to plan painting schemes based on the user's actual owned paints, match colors across brands like Citadel and Vallejo, and manage inventory via terminal UI or API endpoints without requiring a shared service.
