Connect AI Tools to Lymiq

Generate diagrams directly from Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and other MCP-compatible AI tools.

Requirements

  • A Lymiq account (free or paid)
  • An MCP-compatible AI tool (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code)

MCP integration is available on all plans. Sign up for free to get started.

Setup Instructions

Claude Code

Add Lymiq with a single command. The browser will open automatically for authentication.

claude mcp add lymiq -t http https://mcp.lymiq.io/mcp

Cursor

Create a .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lymiq": {
      "url": "https://mcp.lymiq.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Open Cascade → MCP → Configure and add:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lymiq": {
      "url": "https://mcp.lymiq.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code (with MCP extension)

Create a .vscode/mcp.json file:

{
  "servers": {
    "lymiq": {
      "url": "https://mcp.lymiq.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Troubleshooting

"Monthly limit reached"

You've used all your diagram credits for the month. Free users get 3 diagrams/month, Pro gets 10, and Team gets 25. Upgrade your plan for more capacity or wait for your monthly reset.

"Authentication required"

Your browser should open automatically for OAuth login. Make sure you're logged into your Lymiq account.

Connection issues

Try removing and re-adding the MCP server. For Claude Code: claude mcp remove lymiq then add it again.
