Connect Eraser to top MCP clients

Yes. The Eraser MCP server is free to use and subject to the same free tier limits as in-app usage. See installation documentation for how to install the Eraser MCP server on your favorite AI agent.

What can the Eraser MCP do?

With the Eraser MCP, agents can generate diagrams and documents from natural language, create and manage files in your Eraser workspace, and read or update existing diagrams and documents. See documentation for the full list of capabilities and tools.

Which server and auth method should I use?

The remote server with OAuth is recommended for most users. It requires no installation and authenticates securely via your Eraser account. API key auth and the local server are better suited for agentic pipelines where users may not have their own Eraser accounts, or for environments that don't support OAuth.

Where are files and diagrams saved?

All files and diagrams are saved to your Eraser account and accessible from the Eraser app.

Who can access files I've generated?

Only you. Files are created under your identity and are private by default. You can change the access level and link sharing settings at any time either in the Eraser app or using the MCP tools.

Does it use AI credits?

Yes. Calls that involve AI generation will use AI credits from your Eraser account.

What I love most is its Markdown note-taking feature, which allows you to include snapshots of diagrams directly in the canvas. Clicking on these snapshots takes you straight to the relevant diagram section.

As a proof of concept, using Eraser I manually built out a VMWare validated design which is a fairly complex conceptual design for NSX-T Network Virtualization in an enterprise environment. ... I put this whole thing together in under an hour. Pretty wild.

I've recently started using eraser.io and it's simply delightful: the best of Graphviz and Figma and code-to-diagrams in a neat UI.

All of the things that I was doing in 15 different places all in one place. It makes my architecture job easier. And committing back to the codebase is great.
