It outputs raw CSS, Tailwind utility classes, and React inline-style objects simultaneously in a single call. Aurora animation includes a keyframes block, noise includes an inline SVG filter, and glassmorphism ships with both webkit and standard backdrop-filter prefixes.","description":"Generates production-ready CSS for five modern visual effects — glassmorphism, neumorphism, aurora, noise, and mesh-gradient. Outputs raw CSS properties, Tailwind utility classes, and React CSSProperties simultaneously from a single parameterized call.","inputSchema":{"type":"object","required":["effect","params","outputFormat"],"properties":{"effect":{"enum":["glassmorphism","neumorphism","aurora","noise","mesh-gradient"],"type":"string"},"params":{"type":"object","description":"Effect-specific parameters"},"outputFormat":{"enum":["css","tailwind","react-inline","all"],"type":"string"}}},"outputSchema":{"type":"object","properties":{"css":{"type":"string"},"preview":{"type":"object"},"tailwind":{"type":"string"},"keyframes":{"type":"string"},"svgFilter":{"type":"string"},"reactInline":{"type":"string"}}},"agenticReasoning":"USE THIS WHEN: (1) You are generating UI components and need modern CSS effects in CSS, Tailwind, or React inline styles without manual conversion between formats. (2) You want glassmorphism frosted-glass, neumorphism soft shadows, aurora animated gradients, noise grain texture, or mesh-gradient blobs in a single deterministic call. (3) You need all three output formats simultaneously to support a multi-framework codebase. DO NOT USE WHEN: you need complex CSS animations beyond the aurora-shift keyframe, or fully custom SVG filter chains beyond fractalNoise grain. For arbitrary CSS generation, an LLM prompt is more flexible. OVER ALTERNATIVES: No single tool provides glassmorphism + neumorphism + aurora + noise + mesh-gradient with CSS + Tailwind + React inline output simultaneously. Writing each effect by hand requires knowing browser-specific prefixes (-webkit-backdrop-filter), SVG filter syntax (feTurbulence), and correct radial-gradient positioning — this tool handles all of it.","mcpDescription":"Generates CSS effects with triple-format output: raw CSS, Tailwind utility classes, and React CSSProperties. Supports glassmorphism (backdrop-filter), neumorphism (soft shadows), aurora (animated gradient), noise (SVG feTurbulence grain), and mesh-gradient (multi-point radial gradients). Aurora includes @keyframes block. Noise includes inline SVG filter definition. All params optional — sensible defaults for each effect.","howTo":[{"step":"Select an effect","description":"Choose from glassmorphism, neumorphism, aurora, noise, or mesh-gradient."},{"step":"Configure parameters","description":"Set blur, opacity, colors, intensity, or density depending on the effect. All parameters are optional."},{"step":"Choose output format","description":"Select CSS, Tailwind, React inline, or \"all\" to get every format at once."},{"step":"Copy and use","description":"Copy the generated CSS, paste into your stylesheet or component. For aurora, also include the keyframes block."}],"faqs":[{"question":"Does glassmorphism work in all browsers?","answer":"The generator includes both -webkit-backdrop-filter and backdrop-filter for maximum browser compatibility. Safari requires the -webkit- prefix."},{"question":"How do I use the SVG filter for noise?","answer":"Paste the svgFilter SVG markup anywhere in your HTML (hidden), then the CSS references it via filter: url(#noise-filter) on a pseudo-element."},{"question":"Can I customize the aurora animation speed?","answer":"Yes — set the speed parameter (in seconds). The default is 6s. The @keyframes block is always included when outputting aurora."},{"question":"Does the MCP tool support all five effects?","answer":"Yes. Pass effect, params, and outputFormat. All five effects and all four output formats are available via the MCP endpoint."}],"workflowChains":{"live":[],"planned":[]},"tags":["css","glassmorphism","neumorphism","aurora","noise","mesh-gradient","tailwind","react","design","ui"],"tddVerified":true,"mcpCostUnits":1}}
