A side-by-side look at the Rhp MCP and MCP Mermaid MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Rhp MCP for data visualization work as a local process; choose MCP Mermaid for data visualization as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.

generate_mermaid_diagramGenerate mermaid diagram and chart with mermaid syntax dynamically. Mermaid is a JavaScript based diagramming and charting tool that uses Markdown-inspired text definitions and a renderer to create and modify complex diagrams. The main purpose of Mermaid is to help documentation catch up with development.Paste either block (or both) into your client config, e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json. We only show a config when the install command is confirmed.
