## About Eraser MCP with LuumenAI

Connect Eraser and Luumen can read the architecture your team already keeps there. It lists files, opens a document's markdown, and pulls a diagram's DSL for context during an incident or a review. When something is out of date, it drafts the new diagram or document and holds the change for your approval first. Sign in once with OAuth.

## Example tools

Read-only (16 in total):

- `ERASER_MCP_EXPORT_DIAGRAM` — Render a canvas diagram to PNG or JPEG and return a temporary image URL.
- `ERASER_MCP_EXPORT_DOCUMENT` — Export a file's markdown document body as a downloadable artifact.
- `ERASER_MCP_EXPORT_FILE` — Returns the Eraser file URL for PDF export.
- `ERASER_MCP_GET_DIAGRAM` — Fetch a diagram's metadata and DSL/JSON code.
- `ERASER_MCP_GET_DOCUMENT` — Fetch the full markdown body of a file's document.
- `ERASER_MCP_GET_FILE` — Fetch a file's metadata, document outline (headers), and the list of diagrams in it.
- `ERASER_MCP_GET_FOLDER` — Fetch a folder by id.
- `ERASER_MCP_GET_ME` — Fetch the current user, active team, and team memberships.

Write and destructive (26 in total, approval required by default):

- `ERASER_MCP_CREATE_DIAGRAM` — PREFERRED for creating a diagram from a natural-language prompt — Eraser's AI picks the diagram type, generates the DSL, and renders it.
- `ERASER_MCP_CREATE_DOCUMENT` — PREFERRED for populating a document from a natural-language prompt — Eraser's AI generates the markdown.

- `ERASER_MCP_CREATE_FOLDER` — Create a new folder.
- `ERASER_MCP_CREATE_PRESET` — Create a new preset (the team-level container for AI styling: templates, references, and rules).
- `ERASER_MCP_CREATE_TEMPLATE_OR_REFERENCE` — Create a new template (style anchor) or reference (terminology/concept anchor) file and, when `presetId` is provided, attach it to that preset in a single call.
