I also write fiction. And the image attached is a screenshot from a first-person narrative story I had written some time ago. The setting is a Nigerian boarding school, and the narrator shares what happened when he decided to stay up late at night playing chess with his friend.

I built a fully playable chess game entirely inside @paper canvas using MCP + agents!
White vs Black — I played as White, the agent as Black.
We made real moves on the canvas, the agent validated rules, updated the board live, handled castling/check/checkmate, and tracked everything.
After the game ended, I used this prompt to make the agent read the final canvas state and instantly build a beautiful modern Game Stats Dashboard (result, moves, captured pieces, material balance, highlights, visuals — all accurate to the actual game).
A design canvas becoming a complete interactive chess engine + auto post-game analytics? This is a wild new flow!

Built Ramen News Network, a steaming hot bowl of anime and manga news site.
Started it as a school side project a while back, used this challenge to take it end to end: design system, component library with a playground, live site, and custom layouts explored as variations on Paper.
The part I didn't expect to feel this natural: live site feedback through Agentation lands on the Paper canvas next to the variant it points to, alongside AI critique annotations. H00man 😉 and AI side by side. Paper isn't just where design happens, it's where the decision gets made and the winner becomes the source of truth.
Design and code, one language, nothing lost in translation. 3 MCPs. 1 loop.
