MMDCLI

MMDCLI is a command-line utility for managing MikuMikuDance (MMD) assets. It exposes a programmatic interface for models, motions, textures, and metadata, enabling automation and batch workflows in production environments. The project is community-driven and hosted on public repositories that host open-source MMD tooling.

Core features include asset discovery, filtering, batch processing, and metadata editing. Users can list assets, apply patches such as texture replacements, and prepare content for export. The design supports extensibility through plugins that add formats and processing steps.

The architecture centers on a lightweight core with a modular plugin system. Workflows are defined in configuration files (for example YAML or JSON) to promote reproducibility and scriptability when handling large asset sets.

Typical usage follows a verb-object style, for example: mmdcli list models --tags anime; mmdcli patch --input models/foo.pmx --patch textures/foo_diffuse.png --output patched/foo.pmx; mmdcli export --input patched/foo.pmx --format mdx.

MMDCLI supports common MMD formats such as PMX/PMD models, VMD motions, and associated textures. It complements other MMD tools, including the MikuMikuDance editor and OpenMMD workflows.

It is maintained by a community of contributors and evolves through updates and feature requests. See also MikuMikuDance, PMX Editor, OpenMMD.
