Vaults Diagram Tools
Let your agent render Mermaid diagrams to assets and generate maps from source so architecture docs stay visual without leaving the IDE.
Overview
Vaults Diagram Tools MCP is a MCP server for the build phase that turns Mermaid into assets and builds source-code maps for agent-driven documentation.
What is this MCP server?
- Converts Mermaid diagram definitions into exportable assets via MCP tools
- Generates structural maps from source code for architecture overviews
- npm stdio package vaults-diagram-tools at manifest version 0.1.4
- Positioned for agent workflows (Vaults / Obsidian-style doc vaults context on project site)
- Diagram MCP—not a full whiteboard SaaS or Figma replacement
- 1 npm stdio package (identifier vaults-diagram-tools)
- Published project website URL in server registry metadata
What problem does it solve?
Your agent can write Mermaid in markdown but you still manually export PNGs or sketch architecture by hand, so docs drift from the repo the week after you ship.
Who is it for?
Markdown- and vault-oriented builders who want Mermaid rendering and code-to-map helpers inside Claude Code or Cursor doc passes.
Skip if: Teams that only need occasional diagrams in Figma or who require enterprise diagram governance without an agent-centric workflow.
What do I get? / Deliverables
Diagrams and code maps are produced through MCP during doc tasks, so READMEs and vault pages get updatable visuals tied to the current tree.
- Exported diagram assets from Mermaid definitions
- Source-derived structural maps for documentation
- Agent-updatable visuals embedded in docs or vault pages
Recommended MCP Servers
Journey fit
Documentation and system maps are built alongside the product in the build phase, especially when agents draft READMEs, ADRs, and onboarding material. Docs subphase covers diagram pipelines and publishable visuals that explain how the codebase fits together for future-you and collaborators.
How it compares
Mermaid and source-map MCP utilities—not Figma-to-code and not a monitoring or infra provisioning server.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is Vaults Diagram Tools MCP for?
Solo developers and doc-heavy indies using AI agents to maintain architecture notes, Obsidian or vault-style knowledge bases, and repo READMEs with generated diagrams.
When should I use Vaults Diagram Tools MCP?
Use it during build-phase documentation when you add Mermaid in specs, need PNG or asset exports, or want a fresh map of modules after a refactor.
How do I add Vaults Diagram Tools MCP to my agent?
Add the npm stdio server vaults-diagram-tools to your MCP server list per the GitHub repo and project site, install Node dependencies, restart your agent, and invoke the diagram and map tools from chat.
