# Create classroom image templates without writing code

Build certificates, schedules, report cards, and learning aids with blocks, presets, shared media, and named variables.

## Key capabilities

- No-code visual editor
- Flexible layout blocks
- Built-in stock photo search

## Build templates with visual blocks

Start from a preset or blank canvas, arrange blocks in the visual editor, and make the text, images, colors, or other properties that should change into named variables.

## Reuse presets and media

Keep uploads in the media library, customize ready-made presets, and add free [Pexels stock photos](https://www.pexels.com/) in the editor. Publish the design as a template, then render it by ID with named values.

Render a published template by sending its named values to `POST https://hcti.io/v1/image/{template_id}`. The response includes the generated image ID and hosted URL.

## MCP Integration

Connect an MCP-compatible client to `https://mcp.hcti.io` with OAuth. The tools use the connected organization's HTML/CSS to Image account, permissions, and plan limits.

- The `list_templates` tool returns the organization's available templates and their IDs.
- The `list_template_versions` tool returns the saved versions for a selected template.
- The `create_templated_image` tool renders a visual-editor template with the named values supplied by the client.
- Change block-based designs in the visual editor. The MCP `create_template` and `update_template` tools accept HTML/CSS API templates, not visual-editor blocks.
