A personal toolkit for TouchDesigner software development.

AI coding tools

• TD_SKILLS.md — TouchDesigner-specific coding context and best practices
• prompts — Chat prompts for various coding tasks (cleanup, refactor, etc). Triggered via /python-cleanup etc in Copilot chat
• to-docs-mcp — Points to td-docs-mcp config for generating TD docs with AI assistance. MCP tools can be directly encouraged/referenced in a VS Code chat by typing #td-docs-mcp

Python / VS Code setup

Use TDI_Library by adding .vscode/settings.json:

{
  "python.defaultInterpreterPath": "C:\\Program Files\\Derivative\\TouchDesigner\\bin\\python.exe",
  "editor.insertSpaces": false,
  "editor.tabSize": 4
}

Add td-docs-mcp to .vscode/mcp.json for AI-assisted TD documentation context. You'll need to pull td-docs-mcp locally and point to it:

{
  "servers": {
    "td-docs-mcp": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uv",
      "args": ["--directory", "D:\\workspace\\td-docs-mcp\\", "run", "td-docs-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

TODO

• [WIP] Revisit AppStore init in Bootstrap
  • bring latest code over from EA (bootstrap and AppStore py/tox)
  • Had to click force defaults on fresh project :-/ This should just work
  • Check AppStore file backup/restore process
• Add more skills/prompts
• Bring in components from other projects
