Product Pillars

Official registry AI and agents

Flowcharts that people and agents edit together on one live canvas, exported as Mermaid.

Install

Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).

Product Pillars for agents

Product Pillars is a canvas for flowcharts that people and AI agents edit together. Your agent draws a user flow, process map or decision tree; you open it on the canvas, move things around, and the agent reads your changes back. Every diagram exports as Mermaid Markdown, so it can live in your repo.

This repo connects agents to it:

  • An Agent Skill (skills/product-pillars) that tells coding agents when a flowchart belongs on the canvas and how to draw one well. Works in Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI and other agents that read skills.
  • A Claude Code plugin that bundles the skill with the hosted MCP server.
  • server.json, the listing for the official MCP Registry.

The MCP server itself is hosted at https://www.productpillars.com/api/mcp. Nothing here runs locally.

When to use it

Use Product Pillars when someone wants a flowchart they will look at, edit by hand, or share: user flows, onboarding and checkout flows, process maps, approval flows, decision trees. If nobody will ever open the diagram visually, a Mermaid block in a file is enough. It draws flowcharts only.

Install

The skill (any agent)
npx skills add jeremybelcher/product-pillars-agent-kit

The skill tells the agent how to connect if the MCP server isn't set up yet.

The Claude Code plugin (skill plus MCP server)

In Claude Code:

/plugin marketplace add jeremybelcher/product-pillars-agent-kit
/plugin install product-pillars@product-pillars

Then run /mcp, pick product-pillars, choose Authenticate and sign in. If you already added Product Pillars with claude mcp add, remove that entry so you don't have two connections to the same server.

Just the MCP server

Sign-in is OAuth: you approve access once, and the agent can only do what your account can do. Signing in creates a free account if you don't have one.

What the agent can do

list_diagrams, list_projects, get_diagram, create_diagram (empty, or from a Mermaid flowchart), edit_diagram (batched, conflict-safe edits plus auto layout), lint_diagram, render_diagram, update_diagram and share_diagram. Prompts for clients that show them: draw_flowchart, diagram_from_source, review_diagram.

The full agent guide is at productpillars.com/llms.txt.

Privacy

Connected agents read and write diagrams through your account. Diagram content an agent reads is sent to that agent's provider under their terms. See the Privacy Policy and Terms.
