tldraw Canvas

Local HTTP API at http://localhost:7236 for reading and modifying open tldraw canvases.

For full shape types, actions, colors, and exec API details, read references/api-reference.md.

Workflow

1. Find the document

# List all open docs
curl -s "http://localhost:7236/api/doc" | jq

# Filter by name
curl -s "http://localhost:7236/api/doc?name=my-file" | jq

Extract the id field for subsequent calls. If no docs are open, tell the user to open a .tldr file in tldraw desktop.
