Planform MCP Server
Let your agent create and edit Planform UML diagrams, nodes, and links while you scope architecture in VS Code or Cursor.
Overview
Planform MCP Server is an MCP server for the Validate phase that creates and manages Planform UML diagrams, nodes, and links from VS Code and Cursor.
What is this MCP server?
- MCP tools to create and manage Planform UML diagrams from the agent
- CRUD-style operations on diagram nodes and links for living architecture docs
- npm package @shirbarzur/planform-mcp-server with stdio transport (v1.0.7)
- Built for VS Code and Cursor workflows alongside the Planform extension
- Published server version 1.0.7
- npm identifier @shirbarzur/planform-mcp-server
- stdio transport only in published package metadata
What problem does it solve?
Architecture scope lives in scattered notes and the agent cannot update structured UML diagrams in your editor workflow.
Who is it for?
Solo builders who use Planform in VS Code or Cursor and want agent-driven diagram updates while scoping a SaaS or API product.
Skip if: Teams that do not use Planform or only need freeform markdown specs without UML tooling.
What do I get? / Deliverables
After registration, your agent can maintain Planform diagrams and links so scoped design stays current inside your IDE.
- Agent-accessible Planform diagrams with nodes and links
- Updated scope visuals synced through MCP calls
- Architecture artifacts ready to guide Build tickets

Journey fit
Diagram-driven scoping belongs in Validate because it clarifies entities and flows before you commit to a full Build implementation. Scope is where UML-style structure maps features, services, and relationships into something you can validate with stakeholders or your future self.
How it compares
Diagram MCP integration for Planform, not a generic whiteboard API or infrastructure provisioner.
