Download the ZIP file above and attach it to your own AI assistant. The toolkit brings together creative direction, working examples and the builder in one file.
Use an AI assistant that can open ZIP files and run code. For rich, realistic textures, choose one with image generation too. Your own AI account provides generation; features and charges depend on your provider.
What's in the toolkit?
Toolkit v1.9 includes material and design guidance, ready-to-use briefs, three supported movements, faceted hand designs, a guilloché showcase and the C1D builder. Your AI handles the technical files for you.

Copy a prompt. Make it yours.
Paste one of these example prompts into your AI tool of choice after attaching the toolkit. Change the colours, materials or details to suit your idea. Your AI tool will then allow you to download your finished C1D file. Feel free to preview it here before loading it onto your Calibre One.
A mechanical dress dial
Open this toolkit and follow AI-INSTRUCTIONS.txt and DESIGN-STANDARD.txt. Create a richly crafted mechanical-watch-style dial: warm ivory engine-turned barleycorn guilloche with visible engraved depth, bevelled applied copper batons, an elegant satin chapter ring and long faceted copper/steel hands. Use controlled directional light and bright/dark metal facets. Keep typography restrained. Use time movement with continuous central running seconds and precisely aligned lume. Use image generation for realistic handless material artwork when available. Inspect actual466px output and improve flat areas. Build and verify with both included tools. Return C1D plus day/lume previews. Keep all functions within the supported template.
A working chronograph
Follow this toolkit. Create a modern mechanical chronograph: continuous aligned carbon weave, applied steel indices and vermilion timing accents. Give each register clear space and scale labels matching its actual function. Use the supported12hour elapsed recorder, jumping30minute recorder, running-seconds register and central elapsed seconds. Precisely align all register pivots. No fake moving gears. Inspect reset and running layouts, build and return validated C1D plus day/lume previews.
Refine a dial I already made
Follow this toolkit and edit my attached dial: [changes]. Preserve all other approved artwork, hand geometry, pivots and functions. Rebuild and inspect, then return updated validated C1D and previews. Please do not infringe copyright, trademarks, design rights or other intellectual property rights. You are responsible for the dial designs, artwork and other material you create, upload, use or share, and for obtaining any permissions required. Calibre Studio does not review or endorse user-created designs or grant rights to third-party material. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Calibre Studio accepts no liability for infringement arising from user-created or uploaded material. Nothing in this notice excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limits your statutory rights.

See your dial come to life.
Save the C1D your AI gives you, then choose it below. The hands and supported functions animate here so you can check it before connecting to your C1.
Choose your dial file to start. Files stay in your browser.
Look at the hand positions. Try Lume and, where available, start and stop the chronograph. The file check confirms format and integrity; installation also depends on your C1 firmware. Signed legacy Store packs retain their original renderer, calendar layers and complications. Detailed metal hands and restored native legacy packs require CalibreOS Beta 8.0.5. Use the latest Calibre OS for current dial designs.
Only needed if your AI gives you a PNG and JSON instead of a finished C1D. The normal workflow above requires no code editing.
Give your AI the guide, rules and selected template from the toolkit. Ask for a handless 466 × 466 PNG and valid JSON. Choose your preferred artwork and style within the supported template.

Check that the artwork contains no painted hands, moving shadows or live date numbers. The validator checks format and geometry; it cannot judge artwork or rights.
