tldraw

What your AI can do with it

• Draw shapes on the tldraw canvas
• Arrange and position shapes on the canvas
• Collaborate visually with you on the same drawing
• Work on a shared canvas alongside your agent

Getting started

1. Have an AI agent that can connect to MCP servers.
2. Add the tldraw MCP server to that agent's configuration.
3. Open the tldraw canvas so you and the agent share the same drawing.
4. Ask the agent to draw or arrange shapes and watch the canvas update.

Install tldraw

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.

Questions

What is the tldraw mcp server?

It is an MCP server that lets an AI agent draw and visually collaborate with you on tldraw's canvas, so the agent can create and arrange shapes while you work on the same drawing.

Can the agent draw on the canvas?

Yes. The agent can draw shapes and arrange them on the tldraw canvas, and you can collaborate visually on the same drawing.

Do I need to install anything besides the server?

You need an AI agent that can connect to MCP servers, and you need to add the tldraw MCP server to that agent's configuration.

Can I edit the drawing at the same time as the agent?

Yes. The canvas is shared, so you and the agent can collaborate visually on the same drawing.
