Diagram Generation

Create flowcharts and sequence diagrams from Mermaid syntax:

Flowchart:

flowchart TB
    A[Start] --> B{Decision}
    B -->|Yes| C[Success]
    B -->|No| D[Retry]
    D --> B

Sequence Diagram:

sequenceDiagram
    Alice->>Bob: Hello Bob!
    Bob-->>Alice: Hi Alice!

Supported: flowchart/graph, sequenceDiagram, directions (TB/LR/BT/RL), shapes ([] rectangle, {} diamond, (()) circle), labeled edges.

Why This Server?

Feature	This Server	TypeScript alternatives
Runtime	Single binary	Requires Node.js
Size	~14MB	100MB+ with node_modules
Startup	~50ms	500ms-2s
Memory	~10MB idle	~50MB idle
Diagram generation	Built-in Mermaid parser	Not available
Rate limiting	Automatic with backoff	Manual
Caching	2-minute TTL	None
Circuit breaker	Yes	No

---

Official vs Community

Miro has released an official MCP server (beta). Here's how they compare:

Feature	This Server	Official Miro MCP
Tools	76	~10 (beta)
Diagram generation	Mermaid → Miro	Not yet
Bulk operations	Yes	Not yet
Mindmaps	Yes	Not yet
Tags & Groups	Yes	Not yet
Export	Yes	Not yet
Runtime	Single Go binary	Node.js
Rate limiting	Adaptive	Basic
Caching	Built-in	No
OAuth flow	Built-in CLI	Requires setup

When to use the official server: You want Miro-supported tooling and only need basic operations.

When to use this server: You need the full API surface, diagram generation, bulk ops, or want a lightweight binary.

Both can coexist — use different MCP server names in your config.

---

Performance

• Caching: 2-minute TTL reduces API calls
• Rate limiting: Adapts to Miro's rate limit headers
• Circuit breaker: Isolates failing endpoints
• Parallel bulk ops: Creates items concurrently
• Token validation: Fails fast on startup with clear error
• Transient error retry: Auto-retries 502/503/504 with backoff

See PERFORMANCE.md for optimization tips and benchmarks.

HTTP Mode Endpoints

When running with -http :8080:

Endpoint	Description
/	MCP protocol (Streamable HTTP)
/health	Health check (JSON)
/health?deep=true	Deep health check (tests Miro API)
/metrics	Prometheus metrics

Health check response:

{
  "status": "healthy",
  "server": "miro-mcp-server",
  "version": "1.9.0",
  "uptime": "2h30m",
  "components": {
    "config": {"status": "healthy"},
    "miro_api": {"status": "healthy", "latency": "145ms"}
  }
}

Docker Deployment

Quick start:

# Using docker-compose
export MIRO_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-token
docker-compose up -d

# Or build and run manually
docker build -t miro-mcp-server .
docker run -e MIRO_ACCESS_TOKEN=xxx -p 8080:8080 miro-mcp-server

docker-compose.yml features:

• Health checks configured
• Resource limits template
• Environment variable passthrough

---

Debugging with MCP Inspector

Test and debug the server interactively with MCP Inspector:

# Install and run (no setup required)
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector miro-mcp-server

# With environment variables
MIRO_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-token npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector miro-mcp-server

Open http://localhost:6274 to:

• Browse all 76 tools with their schemas
• Test tool calls interactively
• View raw JSON-RPC messages
• Debug parameter validation

See SETUP.md for more debugging options.
