Overview

What is mermaider?

mermaider is an MCP server that provides a single validate_syntax tool to check all Mermaid diagram types for syntax errors. It uses puppeteer-core and an already installed Chrome-based or Firefox browser to run the official Mermaid.js API in a headless page. It is built for developers and LLMs that generate Mermaid diagrams and need fast, reliable syntax validation.

How to use mermaider?

Install and configure your MCP client to run npx -y @vtomilin/mermaider <config>, where <config> is either an inline JSON string or a path to a JSON configuration file containing the browser’s executablePath (and optionally "browser": "firefox"). The server opens a headless browser once and reuses it for all subsequent tool calls, keeping latency low. Examples are provided for VSCode, Cursor/Windsurf, and Bun (via global installation).
