Perplexity

Spin up Miro boards inside Claude Desktop

The `create_board` tool spins up a new Miro workspace directly from your Claude Desktop chat interface. Your Claude Desktop agent handles the canvas setup, so you do not have to open a browser tab to start brainstorming. This MCP Server keeps track of your active Miro boards via `list_boards` inside the desktop app. You get instant Miro workspace generation without leaving your Claude Desktop chat window.

Populate sticky notes and shapes dynamically

The `create_sticky_note` tool places color-coded text blocks onto your Miro canvas using Claude Desktop's local MCP environment. Your Claude Desktop agent converts chat ideas into physical Miro sticky notes. To build structured diagrams, your Claude Desktop agent calls `create_shape` to map out user flows on the Miro board. This turns raw text prompts inside Claude Desktop into visual Miro layouts in real time.

Audit board items and team members

The `list_items` tool pulls the exact layout of your Miro canvas so your Claude Desktop MCP agent can read what is currently on the board. This lets the Claude Desktop agent analyze sticky notes and shapes to summarize team feedback. To see who has access, your Claude Desktop agent runs `list_members` and checks `list_tags` to group Miro tasks. You get a clear picture of team participation and categorized Miro board elements in Claude Desktop without manual inspection.
