Setup snapshot

git clone https://github.com/binaryloader/mcp-scapple.git

1
Setup complexity is MEDIUM. Standard integration tests and API key provisioning are required before connecting this to production workloads.
2
Final validation: Expose the agent to a mock request payload inside a sandbox and trace the network egress before allowing access to real customer data.

mcp-scapple

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for reading, writing, and rendering Scapple (.scap) files. Scapple is a brainstorming tool by Literature & Latte that stores diagrams as XML. This server enables AI assistants to work with Scapple files directly.

Features

read-scapple: Parse a .scap file into structured JSON with notes, background shapes, note styles, and connections
write-scapple: Create a .scap file from structured note data with automatic bidirectional connection management
text-to-scapple: Convert indented text, bullet lists, or numbered lists into Scapple diagrams with automatic layout and optional themed rendering
scapple-to-image: Render a .scap file to PNG with full theme support (background, colors, fonts, shadows, patterns)

Examples

You can use natural language to create and render diagrams:

"Make a brainstorm diagram about mobile app development with branches for design, backend, and testing"

Default theme

"Render that diagram with a dark theme — navy background, dot pattern, no shadows"

Dark theme

Theme Options

The scapple-to-image and text-to-scapple tools accept an optional theme parameter with the following properties. All properties are optional — when omitted, values from the .scap file's settings are used first, then the defaults below.

Canvas

| Property | Type | Default | Description | |---|---|---|---| | backgroundColor | string | #ffffff | Canvas background color (hex) | | backgroundPattern | string | none | Pattern type: none, dots, grid, lines | | patternColor | string | #cccccc | Pattern color (hex) |

Notes

| Property | Type | Default | Description | |---|---|---|---| | strokeColor | string | #cccccc | Note border color (hex) | | strokeWidth | number | 1 | Note border width | | borderRadius | number | 8 | Rounded note corner radius | | shadowColor | string | #00000033 | Shadow color (hex with alpha) | | shadowEnabled | boolean | true | Enable/disable shadow | | defaultFill | string | none | Default note fill color (hex) | | defaultBorder | string | None | Default border style: Rounded, Square, Cloud, None |

Text

| Property | Type | Default | Description | |---|---|---|---| | defaultFont | string | Helvetica | Default font family | | defaultFontSize | number | 12 | Default font size | | defaultTextColor | string | #000000 | Default text color (hex) | | defaultAlignment | string | Center | Default text alignment: Left, Center, Right | | noteXPadding | number | 8 | Horizontal padding inside notes |

Connections

| Property | Type | Default | Description | |---|---|---|---| | lineColor | string | #666666 | Connection line color (hex) | | lineWidth | number | 1 | Connection line width | | arrowColor | string | #666666 | Arrow color (hex) |

Scapple File Settings

When rendering a .scap file, the following settings are read from the file and used as theme defaults (overridden by explicit theme parameters):

BackgroundColor → backgroundColor
DefaultTextColor → defaultTextColor
DefaultFont (UISettings) → defaultFont
NoteXPadding (UISettings) → noteXPadding

Per-note appearance settings (border color, weight, text color, fill, font, bold/italic) always take precedence over theme defaults.

Components

| Path | Description | |---|---| | src/index.ts | MCP server entrypoint | | src/types.ts | TypeScript type definitions | | src/errors.ts | Custom error class hierarchy | | src/lib/parser.ts | .scap XML to ScappleDocument parser | | src/lib/builder.ts | ScappleDocument to .scap XML builder | | src/lib/renderer.ts | SVG/PNG rendering pipeline | | src/lib/layout.ts | Text-to-diagram automatic layout | | src/lib/svg/ | SVG generation modules (shapes, connections, text, defs) | | src/tools/ | MCP tool handlers | | examples/ | Rendered samples |
