Overview
What is Codepic?
Codepic is an MCP server that lets AI coding agents (Cursor, Claude, VS Code Copilot, Codex, Windsurf, Cline, and other MCP clients) create editable hand‑drawn diagrams directly in CodePic — instead of returning static images, Mermaid text, or JSON to paste manually. The result opens in the CodePic editor, where users can move shapes, edit labels, adjust connectors, share a read‑only link, and export PNG or JSON.
How to use Codepic?
First create a free API key (a cpk_... token) at https://codepic.cc/settings/api-keys. Then configure your MCP client to connect to the remote Streamable HTTP server at https://codepic.cc/api/mcp/mcp with the header Authorization: Bearer cpk_your_api_key_here. Specific configuration examples are provided for Cursor, Claude Code, Claude Desktop, VS Code (GitHub Copilot), Codex CLI, Windsurf, and Cline.

FAQ from Codepic
What do I need to run Codepic MCP?
A free API key from https://codepic.cc/settings/api-keys and an MCP client that supports remote Streamable HTTP servers. No local installation is required.
Which MCP clients are supported?
Cursor, Claude (Desktop and Code), VS Code (GitHub Copilot), Codex CLI, Windsurf, Cline, and any other client that supports remote Streamable HTTP.
How is this different from generating Mermaid code?
Codepic creates editable hand‑drawn diagrams that open directly in the CodePic editor, rather than returning static Mermaid text or images that must be pasted elsewhere.
What can I do with the diagrams?
You can move shapes, edit labels, adjust connectors, share a read‑only link, and export the diagram as PNG or JSON.
Is a local server required?
No — Codepic MCP runs as a remote Streamable HTTP server. You only need to configure your client with the provided URL and API key.
