How OpenPress Actually Works
Four concrete steps from IDE conversation to print-ready delivery, seamlessly collaborating with your AI agent.
Install Agent Publishing Skill
One command equips your AI with publication design rules
Run the install command in your project terminal. Your AI agent (Cursor, Claude Code, Antigravity, Windsurf) immediately loads OpenPress layout conventions and tools.
Provide Material & Prompt Your Agent
No pre-formatting needed — talk directly in IDE chat
Drop raw notes, data, or images into your workspace, and prompt your agent: 'Organize this material into a 6-page technical whitepaper with architecture diagrams.'
Live Workbench Preview & Proposals
Editable source on the left, 100% paper fidelity on the right
Boot the local Workbench to see fixed-page pagination in real time. When your agent proposes edits, review changes in a safe proposal sandbox before applying.
Export Multi-Format Deliverables
Zero overflow, zero layout shift — three formal formats
Export print-ready PDF with exact pagination, DOCX for traditional stakeholders, or publish directly to Cloudflare Pages as an interactive Web Reader.
Why OpenPress?
Comparing 4 ways AI generates documents across speed, layout aesthetics, token consumption, and human editability.
Stop forcing AI to output bloated HTML markup. Leverage concise, token-efficient MDX that humans can effortlessly read and edit, while rendering 300DPI print-grade publications.
Real Collaboration: Publish with Agent in a Safe Sandbox.
On the left: AI Agent (Codex / Claude) proposes edits. On the right: OpenPress Workbench previews the live page. Zero file corruption.
Live Collaboration: Codex drafts a plugin proposal (+8 -1) while Workbench renders Page 24 in real-time.
Isolated Sandbox Proposals
Agent modifications exist in a review preview layer without touching your authored files until approved.
Side-by-Side Visual Diff
Instantly compare current vs proposed pages with color-coded boundaries and typography tracking.
Total Decision Control
Use hotkeys (A Accept / R Reject / M Discuss) or inline feedback to steer your agent interactively.
Plugin Ecosystem: On-Demand Capabilities.
OpenPress core stays focused on layout and pagination. Domain-specific tooling extends via modular plugins invoked directly in MDX.
diagram-design
Render sharp SVG & React architecture diagrams, sequence flows, and infrastructure topologies fitted to page constraints.
<ArchitectureDiagram type='system' /> Directly in MDX gc-minimal-zine-poster
Paper textures, 3:5 poster ratios, seal stamp badges, and quiet Zine-style publication covers for formal reports.
<ZineCover title='Annual Report 2026' /> Directly in MDX Any external skill complying with open-press adapter protocols can be registered via CLI, rendering as version-controlled React components or MDX.
