lospec-cli

CLI tool that downloads a Lospec palette and generates a PNG grid.

Why does this exist?

Lospec palettes are distributed as single-row strips, which can be awkward to work with in practice. If you’ve ever had to manually rearrange a palette into a grid just to use it in Blender, Photoshop, or a pixel art tool, you know the friction.

This CLI removes that step by converting palettes into clean, ready-to-use PNG grids.

Installation

Global install

npm install -g @fapoli/lospec-cli

Run with npx

npx @fapoli/lospec-cli

Usage

Run the CLI:

lospec

You will be prompted for:

• Palette name (from Lospec)
• Number of columns
• Cell size

The tool will then generate a PNG file named:

<palette>.png

Example

lospec

Input:

Palette name: comfy57
Columns: 8
Cell size: 32

Output:

comfy57.png

Features

• Fetches palettes directly from Lospec
• Generates clean PNG grids
• Simple interactive CLI
