Trident — Public

MCP serverDev tools

Your AI can draw and update architecture diagrams that your team can work on together. Diagrams are written in Trident's 2D diagram language, so you can go from a plain description of your system to a picture of how it fits together, and keep that picture current as your design changes.

Use Trident — Public in Claude, ChatGPT or Ahel Desktop

Free. Sign in, add Trident — Public and connect your AI. About a minute.

Also: Claude Code · Cursor · Codex

Then ask your AI: use Trident to get trident spec

Details

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

After adding it, describe your system's components and how they connect, then ask your AI to draw the architecture. The public repository is at github.com/alexeibespalov/tridentpublic.

What your AI can do with it

  • Create architecture diagrams of your system from what you describe
  • Edit and refine existing diagrams as your design changes
  • Work on the same diagrams together with your team
  • Write and update diagrams using Trident's 2D diagram language

Install Trident — Public

The server’s own address, for the clients that take one directly. Or connect Ahel once and every client you use reads it from one address, with the account kept on Ahel rather than in each client’s config.

  • Claude Code

    claude mcp add --transport http --scope user trident-public 'https://mcp.tridentchart.com/mcp'

    Run it once in your project, then open /mcp to approve any sign-in the server asks for.

  • Claude Desktop

    https://mcp.tridentchart.com/mcp

    Add a custom connector in Settings, paste this address, and approve the sign-in.

  • Cursor

    cursor://anysphere.cursor-deeplink/mcp/install?name=trident-public&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL21jcC50cmlkZW50Y2hhcnQuY29tL21jcCJ9

    Open the link and Cursor adds the server at that address.

  • ChatGPT

    https://mcp.tridentchart.com/mcp

    In Settings, enable Developer mode, create an MCP app, and paste this address. Your plan and workspace must allow custom apps.

  • Codex

    codex mcp add trident-public --url 'https://mcp.tridentchart.com/mcp'

    Run it once, then sign in with codex mcp login trident-public if the server asks for an account.

From the project's README

As published by alexeibespalov/tridentpublic in README.md.

Open-source core of Trident — a text-based diagramming tool.

This repo contains the parser, serializer, and read-only renderer. No auth, no collaboration, no dependencies.


What's here

FilePurpose
parser.jsParses Trident markup text → graphData object
trident-serializer.jsSerializes graphData → Trident markup text
renderer-oss.jsRead-only renderer: SVG, PNG, interactive canvas
spec.mdFull language specification
example.mdWorking diagram examples
demo.htmlBrowser demo (open directly, no build step)

Quick start

<script type="module">
import { Trident2DParserV2 } from './parser.js';
import { renderToSVG, renderToPNG, mountViewer } from './renderer-oss.js';

const parser = new Trident2DParserV2();

const markup = `trident
container backend color:#4A90E2 label:"Backend"
node api[API Server] in backend at (150, 100)
node db[Database]   in backend at (350, 100)
api --> |Query| db`;

// SVG string
const svg = await renderToSVG(markup, parser);

// Interactive canvas with zoom + pan (no editing)
await mountViewer(document.getElementById('diagram'), markup, parser);

// PNG blob (2× retina)
const blob = await renderToPNG(markup, parser, { scale: 2 });
</script>

Open demo.html directly in a browser to see it running.


Markup format

trident

container <id> [color:<hex>] [label:"<text>"] [at (<x>, <y>)]
node <id>(<icon>)[<label>] [in <container>] [at (<x>, <y>)] [color:<hex>]
<source> --> <target>
<source> -->|<label>| <target>
text <id> "<content>" at (<x>, <y>) [style:stickyNote|textBody]
