Resumo
BriefingVerificadoHipótese

POS 57: Aseprite/Piskel/free tools crowd the job and the GitHub wave is already past peak. Benchmark: patch-gg/pixelfx: 5,221 stars in 6 days (created 30 Oct 2026), MIT; 24h …

+594; 3v3 −16% decelerating, peak 1 Nov dsp=3 — failed wrapper gate; proves demand for code-native pixel effects (Verified). Existence: Aseprite, Piskel, Photopea, CapCut pixel filters and itch.io packs exist; a hosted API+studio specifically productizing the new code-effect wave was not found as a dominant player in a quick check (Hypothesis).
