Doesn't really have any ui, but it's pretty easy to use, just edit ppsspp.ini and set:
SaveNewTextures = True
to dump textures into \memstick\PSP\TEXTURES\gameID\new\, then put textures you edit into \memstick\PSP\TEXTURES\gameID\ and set:
ReplaceTextures = True
to have them replaced in game.
There's also optional textures.ini file you can create in \memstick\PSP\TEXTURES\gameID\ which can be used to set different filenames or limit the size of texture, but it's completely optional, you can check it's syntax in the original pull request.

It can use texture scaling(when dumping), should be affected by texture cache settings when replacing and that's pretty much it. If you're on git, you might subscribe to this issue if you're interested about future updates to this feature since it might get more stuff someday.

Thank you for posting the steps, really appreciated <3

Basically, this allows you to use a different scaler, or different scaling factor, on different images.

Unfortunately, because I just pulled in all of PPSSPP's code for its scaler, the exe is kinda big. It could be made smaller by cherry picking out what's needed or refactoring some dependencies (unfortunate that the linker didn't do this for me.)

Run without args for basic help.

Would be better if the exported files doesn't had that "~" in the end but instead, got exported to a X folder (For example, the folder "Out" which is automatically made in C:\Users\USER\Desktop\xbrz-cli-64 once the process begins)

Tried it with Dissidia 012 and it makes a hella huge difference in the Menus, icons and such. Can't say too much about the characters since I didn't noticed a difference. (But it did work tho, from 256x256 or so to 768x768 or so per texture of Cloud & Lightning)

Thank you so much for making such a simple tool, it's awesome <3

EDIT:
I got why I didn't noticed any difference now, characters modified textures aren't applying.
Grabbed the 10 textures of Zidane, made a single texture and C&P'ed it in the 10 files through Paint and it doesn't work, Zidanne is looking as in the default game.
Weird enough, I feel like the menus, icons and those modified textures are actually working x.x ...
