UML-MCP

UML-MCP gives an AI assistant a real diagram tool instead of asking it to fake diagrams in Markdown. Connect it once over MCP, then ask for a class diagram, sequence diagram, architecture view, Mermaid flowchart, D2 graph, BPMN process, or another Kroki-backed format. The server validates the source, renders it, and returns a URL, playground link, or inline image.

It also works as a building block for agent-facing products. Use MCP when an agent needs diagram tools, AG-UI when a frontend needs a standard event stream, and OpenUI when the product should turn model output into interactive, application-owned UI components. These layers complement each other; UML-MCP stays focused on diagram generation.

UML-MCP in chat: Client/Server Mermaid sequence with URL and Playground links

_{Chat reply shape: diagram preview · URL · Playground (mermaid.live)}

Quick start

Remote (recommended) — add to your MCP client:

"uml-mcp": {
  "transport": "http",
  "url": "https://uml-mcp.vercel.app/mcp"
}

Use /mcp, not the site root. Then ask: “Draw a sequence diagram of a user logging in through an API gateway.” or paste PlantUML / Mermaid / Kroki source.

Repo defaults: .cursor/mcp.json · .vscode/mcp.json · .codex/config.toml.

At a glance

Topic	What you get
Diagrams	~37 types via Kroki (UML, Mermaid, D2, TikZ, BPMN, C4, GoAT, UMLet, …)
Tools	`generate_uml` · `generate_uml_image` · `validate_uml` · `list_diagram_types` · `generate_uml_batch`
Chat	Inline PNG + markdown `![diagram](url)` + Playground link
Deploy	Local · Docker · Kubernetes (Helm) · Vercel · Smithery
Enterprise	Optional SSO: Microsoft Entra ID / OAuth 2.1 bearer tokens, RFC 9728 metadata, clear 401/403 (docs/enterprise · guide)
Config file	One `uml-mcp.yaml` (defaults < file < env) · `uml-mcp config init\|show\|validate` · profiles `local` / `docker` / `enterprise`
Audit & observability	MXCP-style audit of every tool/resource/prompt call (JSONL rotation, stdout → SIEM) · JSON logs · metrics + Prometheus `/metrics` · rate limits per IP/user/route/tool (operations)
Quality	`uml-mcp lint --strict --min-grade A`: mcpx-style grade, token budget, MXCP-style config checks (rules)
Admin console	Setup form, schema-driven settings (save, reset, live apply), activity, live logs, charts, Kroki playground and Docker stack, Stop; local token or `MCP.Admin` (tour)
Local Kroki	`uml-mcp kroki up --use`: Kroki + mermaid, blockdiag, bpmn, excalidraw in Docker on `127.0.0.1` (guide)
Plugins	Extra MCP tools and diagram renderers from Python packages, allow-listed in `plugins.enabled` (guide · author)
Tracing	Optional OpenTelemetry spans per request and MCP call (`uml-mcp[otel]`)
Frontend	Canonical AG-UI SSE for agent UIs; OpenUI can consume AG-UI and render generated components in your app

MCP tools

Tool	Purpose
`generate_uml`	Render one diagram; tool text includes image markdown, URL, Playground. Use `png` for ImageContent.
`generate_uml_image`	Inline chat image (default PNG); fetches bytes even under hosted `MCP_URL_ONLY`
`validate_uml`	Local checks; `strict` for Mermaid/D2 (rejects semicolon-packed `sequenceDiagram`)
`list_diagram_types`	Catalog (like `uml://types`)
`generate_uml_batch`	Many diagrams (`MCP_BATCH_MAX_ITEMS`, `MCP_BATCH_CONCURRENCY`)

Smoke prompts: tests/prompts/chatgpt_mcp_smoke_test.md

Architecture & layout

Assistant → generate_uml / generate_uml_image → Kroki (+ fallbacks) → url, playground, optional image bytes.

MCP request flow

server.py / app.py     -- MCP + FastAPI (/mcp)
mcp_core/tools/        -- generate_uml, generate_uml_image, validate, batch
tools/kroki/           -- Kroki, PlantUML, Mermaid, D2

Agent UI: canonical POST /ag-ui for AG-UI clients; legacy direct render at POST /ag-ui/generate. See frontend integration and OpenUI + UML-MCP.

Development

uv sync --all-groups
uv run pytest tests/ -v
uv run ruff check . && uv run ruff format --check .
make ci

Docs locally: uv run mkdocs serve → http://127.0.0.1:8000

Enterprise SSO: OAuth 2.1 · OpenID Connect · Microsoft Entra ID

Optional and off by default (MCP_AUTH_MODE=none; the public Vercel endpoint stays open).

Topic	Summary
Modes	`jwt`: validate Entra / OIDC access tokens (resource server) · `entra-proxy`: adds RFC 8414 + RFC 7591 facade with S256-only PKCE for DCR clients
OAuth 2.1	Authorization Code + PKCE S256; header-only bearer tokens; 401 → `WWW-Authenticate: Bearer resource_metadata, scope`; 403 `insufficient_scope` step-up
OpenID Connect	Discovery + JWKS for signing keys; ID tokens are rejected, access tokens only
Entra ID	v2 tokens (`requestedAccessTokenVersion: 2`), `mcp.read` / `mcp.write` / `.default`, app roles, VS Code + Visual Studio pre-authorized (setup)
MSAL	Client side only (VS Code, Visual Studio, Azure CLI, daemons); examples in OAuth/OIDC/MSAL
Try it	`tests/http/entra-auth.http` · `python -m mcp_core.auth generate az-script` · checklist

If this survives a real production repo, it beats a lot of polished launch demos.
