## Summary

Indicode BV introduces Klad, a 2D painting and animation app that a coding agent can operate through its command line on the same drawing as a human. The agent's strokes stay editable as data, and a user can recolour or move them later. Klad is source-available rather than open source, free for personal use and for companies with less than 500,000 euros in annual revenue, and it is in an early first public version that users build themselves.

## Why it matters

The source explains a concrete workflow where a coding agent and a human edit the same drawing through shared strokes, which clarifies how agents can operate creative tools.
