generate-mind-mapLABSCO SUMMARY
A structured outline becomes a mind map file in one call.
The pair is generate and read with no edit step between them, so changing a map means regenerating it from the topics and relationships rather than patching the file. Both tools are addressed entirely through their arguments — filename, outputPath, title, topics and relationships going out, inputPath and style coming back — which makes the map's structure something the agent has to hold and re-emit in full each time.
What it is
A two-tool mind map writer: one generates a map file from structured topics, the other reads one back from disk.
What you get
- generate-mind-map takes a title, a topics structure and a list of relationships and writes the result to filename under outputPath
- read-mind-map reads the map at inputPath and returns it, with style controlling the shape of what comes back
- autoOpenFile decides whether a generated map is opened as soon as it is written
Requirements
A writable outputPath for generated maps, and autoOpenFile set according to whether the file should open on creation. MIT licensed.
Setup effort
One command — npx xmind-generator-mcp
USE CASES
01
Turning a plan into a map you can hand over
Give the generator the title, the topic tree and the relationships between topics, and it writes the file to the output path under the filename you choose.
02
Picking up a map someone else made
Read the existing file back in the style you want, then regenerate it with the changes — there is no in-place edit, so the read output is the input to the next write.
