Mermaid Diagram Generator FAQs

Question 1

What is the Mermaid Diagram Generator?

Accepted Answer

It's a tool that converts Mermaid diagram code into PNG images using a headless browser for high-quality rendering. It also implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for easy integration with AI assistants.

Question 2

What themes and customization options are available?

Accepted Answer

The tool supports multiple themes including default, forest, dark, and neutral. You can also customize the background color of the generated PNG images.

Question 3

What is the MCP protocol, and why is it used?

Accepted Answer

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) enables seamless integration with AI assistants, allowing them to generate diagrams directly from textual descriptions using Mermaid syntax.

Question 4

How do I use the 'CONTENT_IMAGE_SUPPORTED' environment variable?

Accepted Answer

Set 'CONTENT_IMAGE_SUPPORTED' to 'true' (default) to return images directly in the response. Set it to 'false' to save images to disk; you'll need to specify the 'name' and 'folder' parameters in this case.

Question 5

Why should I use this instead of Claude's built-in Mermaid support?

Accepted Answer

This server allows you to use themes and custom background colors, which aren't supported by Claude's native Mermaid rendering. It also provides a dedicated server for broader MCP client compatibility.
