WIDE-SCREEN LAYOUTS
You bought the monitors. Use them.
Your tools. Your world. Separate corners.
Keep your camera and HUDs inside the world, with room around it for everything else.
LOCAL ASSISTANT BRIDGE
Put your assistant
Put your assistant
on inventory duty.
Connect Cursor, Codex, or Claude Code to your open viewer. Find things, sort folders, change outfits, and set up photos.
- 01Switch it on
Turn on the bridge in Preferences > Privacy and choose what permissions it gets.
- 02Bring your assistant
Connect the local MCP sidecar to your assistant, then log in and let inventory load.
- 03Give it a job
Ask in chat. Outfit changes, no-copy moves, and moves to trash ask permission by default. You can set each to Always Allow. Permanent deletion is unavailable.
The bridge runs on your computer. Your assistant’s data policies still apply. It cannot chat, teleport, or shop for you.
The pants project.
A camera setup. A folder of pants. One very patient assistant.
“The Fenfarg full-body camera is saved. Head to feet are in frame on the white backdrop…”
“The other Fenfarg presets are not recorded yet. Place the next one and I will add it the same way.”
“The bottoms camera is saved on the same Fenfarg stand. The frame runs from your waist to your feet…”
The assistant saved the camera positions in its own notes, ready to reuse for clothing photos.
Worked for 13m
“All 28 folders in Clothes / Bottoms / Pants now have a thumbnail.”
“Three folders are sets, so those used the full-body camera: the Terri jacket and pants, the clown romper, and the Juicy tracksuit.”
Two shots needed another look.
The assistant reported one pair rendering plain white and another spilling out of the frame.
Read the edited conversation
USER - thanks, now I moved the camera to a preferred shot for clothing captures. are you able to detect and record the camera settings?
AI - Yes. The camera is read and saved in C:\Users\...\...\sodie-account.md under Clothing camera.
It is a close, low, front-left view. The camera sits about 1.57 m in front of you, 0.64 m to your left, and 0.40 m above your feet. The focus is almost on your feet, and the camera is 1.64 m from that point.
USER - Ok, We'll start with a Fenfarg location and make several presets. I'm currently set for full body shots
AI - The Fenfarg full-body camera is saved. Head to feet are in frame on the white backdrop, and the reference picture is C:\Users\...\...\fenfarg-full-body.jpg.
The other Fenfarg presets are not recorded yet. Place the next one and I will add it the same way.
USER - bottoms shot is ready
AI - The bottoms camera is saved on the same Fenfarg stand. The frame runs from your waist to your feet, and the reference picture is C:\Users\...\...\fenfarg-bottoms.jpg.
USER - ok, lets try adding a thumbnail to every folder in clothes > bottoms > pants
AI - [Worked for 13m]
All 28 folders in Clothes / Bottoms / Pants now have a thumbnail.
Each one is the Legacy fit, worn over NUDE, on the bottoms camera. Three folders are sets, so those used the full-body camera: the Terri jacket and pants, the clown romper, and the Juicy tracksuit.
Two shots are weaker than the rest. The Mila pants stayed plain white, and the pink camo sweatpants are so baggy they spill out of the bottoms frame.
For your particular
brand of chaos.
