card_from_url — Make a social card for a page that already exists, in one call: fetches the page like a crawler, takes its title, description, author, domain and site icon, picks the starter design that fits the page (a Jev decision over every preset, about 100 ms) and returns the image (shown inline, watermarked, free).
list_presets — Browse the ready-made designs (presets) a card can start from: key, name, template kind, native size, use-case categories, a one-line look description and a preview image URL.
preview_card — Render a preset with the user's text and return the image (shown inline).
generate_meta_tags — Build the complete <head> block for a page: <title>, meta description, canonical, Open Graph and Twitter card tags, with og:image width/height.
list_templates — The user's saved templates (their own designs, made in the editor or with save_template): slug, name, kind, the fields render_card and og_image_url can override, and when it was last edited.
save_template — Copy a preset (optionally with the user's text as its new defaults) into the user's account as a saved template, so render_card and og_image_url can use it.
render_card — Render one of the user's saved templates with the given text and return the PNG (shown inline, at 1x).
og_image_url — Build a signed image URL for a saved template with the given text, ready to put in a page's <meta property="og:image"> tag.
