Openflowkit MCP

The open-source diagramming studio for builders. Create flows from templates, code, structured imports, or AI. Refine them visually, keep them local-first, and export as Cinematic MP4 walkthroughs - or drive everything from Claude / Cursor / Windsurf via our first-party MCP server .

People connecting design tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.
