Six questions about any system, plus a render tool. Every tool takes source (EN code or .en/.txt file path). Tool names are shorthand, not specs — read each description before calling; compose and equivalent are mode-based, not general analyzers.
| Tool | What it answers | Levers |
|---|---|---|
structure | What is this system? Shape, stages, bridges, cycles, critical path, dominator tree, min-cuts, subsystems, actors, locations. | detect_findings=true flags risks (unguarded-sink, single-cut-path, multi-cut-path); node=X returns per-node centrality (betweenness, closeness, eigenvector). |
invariant | What's always true? Conservation laws, T-invariants (sustainable cycles), depletable sets, deficiency, reversibility. | rules (one per line) checks custom claims. Four supported shapes: no bridge that is also hub · every path from X to Y passes through at least one of [A,B,C] (precedence) · no node with centrality above N · removing any single node disconnects at most N others. |
live | Can it deadlock? Can entities overflow? Siphons, traps, unbounded cycles, structural liveness and boundedness. | — |
reachable | Can X reach Y? Path, distance, boundary crossings. from/to accept entity or action names. | defense_nodes=a,b,c checks whether guards cover every path. |
equivalent | Are two systems the same, or what changes if I change this one? | Compare mode (source_a+source_b): edit distance + spectral cospectrality. Evolve mode (source+patch): plain EN adds; - name removes; same-name replaces. |
compose | How do parts combine (merge) or how does a part stand alone (extract)? | Merge: source_a+source_b+links (a.entity=b.entity per line). Extract: source+subsystem (names come from structure.subsystems). |
render | SVG or PNG diagram. Only call when the user asks to visualize. | Themes: Editorial, Primer, Carbon (each ± isDark) or seed-derived from color=#RRGGBB. structure_layers bitmask (1=subsystems, 2=pipelines, 4=cycles, 8=forks, 16=joins, 32=hubs, 64=deadlock, 128=overflow). |
One statement per line:
Shared names between yields and needs create connections automatically:
Same name = same thing. Put all required inputs in one needs: list (AND). Give two actions the same yield-name to offer alternatives (OR). Sequence = one action consuming another's yield. Re-yield stateful resources to keep them persistent; one-shot data stays consumed. Model at the real atomic granularity — split only when the pieces could be accessed independently.

@endiagram/mcp generates a random install ID on first run, stored at
~/.endiagram/install-id (mode 0600). It is sent with every request as
the X-Endiagram-Install-Id HTTP header so we can correlate requests
from the same install for debugging issues that the per-IP signal alone
cannot track (mobile networks, VPNs, CGNAT all collapse or churn IPs).
No source code, no file paths, no environment variables, and no PII are sent. The install ID is a random opaque UUIDv4 generated locally.
A first-run notice prints to stderr (never stdout — stdout is the MCP JSON-RPC channel) with the disclosure and the opt-out instructions. The notice fires once per install and never again.
Any of these three methods disables the install ID:
ENDIAGRAM_TELEMETRY=off as an environment variable (also
accepts 0, false, no).~/.endiagram/telemetry containing the word off.~/.endiagram/install-id. (A new one is generated on next
run unless option 1 or 2 is also set.)When any of these is active, the X-Endiagram-Install-Id header is not
sent at all — the server falls back to its per-IP HMAC cid for
correlation, which works fine for short-term per-session tracing.
