SeeFlow: Architecture Diagrams That Are Wired to Your Live App
Architecture diagrams rot — that's the core premise behind SeeFlow, a new open-source tool that makes diagrams executable. Instead of static Confluence pages that go stale in months, SeeFlow generates a flow canvas from your codebase and wires each node to your running application.
How It Works
SeeFlow ships a plugin for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and Windsurf that does the heavy lifting. You invoke it with a natural language command:
/seeflow show me the shopping cart featureIt also includes an MCP server, so any MCP-aware editor can register and edit diagrams without leaving the IDE.
Key Detail
- 100% free and MIT open source — no pricing tiers, no licensing hoops.
- Live wiring: each node in the diagram is connected to the actual running app, so the diagram reflects real-time state.
- Multiple IDE support through the MCP protocol.
Who It's For
Developers tired of maintaining outdated architecture docs, especially teams using AI coding agents that can interact with diagrams programmatically.
