Overview
What is Mindmap MCP Server?
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that converts Markdown content into interactive mindmaps using the markmap-cli library. It is intended for users who want to quickly visualize hierarchical Markdown data as mindmaps within MCP‑compatible AI clients.
How to use Mindmap MCP Server?
Install with pip install mindmap-mcp-server, or run with uvx mindmap-mcp-server, or use the Docker image ychen94/mindmap-converter-mcp. Configure in claude_desktop_config.json using uvx, python, or docker commands. Use the --return-type argument to choose between returning the full HTML content (html) or saving the mindmap to a file and returning its path (filePath).
Key features of Mindmap MCP Server

FAQ from Mindmap MCP Server
What alternatives are available if this server doesn’t work?
For Windows users or those with persistent issues, the README suggests using the “Markmap” VS Code extension or a provided system prompt that generates markmap HTML directly.
What are the runtime dependencies?
The server requires Node.js when installed via pip or run with uvx. The Docker method avoids this dependency.
How do I choose between returning HTML and a file path?
Use the --return-type argument: html returns the full mindmap HTML (good for preview in an AI client’s artifact), while filePath saves the mindmap to a file and returns the path (saves tokens and allows later opening in a browser).
Does the server support other MCP clients besides Claude Desktop?
Yes. It implements the Model Context Protocol version 1.0 and works with any MCP‑compatible client.
What transport protocol or authentication does the server use?
The README does not specify transport or authentication details beyond implementing the MCP protocol.
