Quickboard

QuickBoard

Create a board, add elements, share the URL. Users see it live.

Tools

• create_board - Returns board_id, secret, url. Save the secret.
• get_board - Public. No secret needed.
• add_elements - Add shapes/text/mermaid. Requires secret.
• clear_board - Wipe the board. Requires secret.

Workflow

1. create_board → save secret → share URL with user immediately
2. add_elements with board_id + secret
3. Reuse the same board. Only create new for a new topic.

Elements

{"type": "rectangle", "x": 100, "y": 100, "width": 200, "height": 80, "backgroundColor": "#a5d8ff"}
{"type": "ellipse", "x": 100, "y": 100, "width": 120, "height": 120, "backgroundColor": "#b2f2bb"}
{"type": "diamond", "x": 100, "y": 100, "width": 140, "height": 100, "backgroundColor": "#ffec99"}
{"type": "text", "x": 100, "y": 100, "text": "Hello", "fontSize": 20}
{"type": "arrow", "x": 100, "y": 180, "width": 0, "height": 80, "points": [[0,0],[0,80]]}

Colors: #a5d8ff blue, #b2f2bb green, #ffec99 yellow, #ffc9c9 red, #d0bfff purple, #dee2e6 grey

Mermaid (max 8 nodes!)

Only for simple linear flows. For anything complex, use direct elements.

{"mermaid": "flowchart TD\n  A[Start] --> B{OK?}\n  B -->|Yes| C[Done]\n  B -->|No| D[Retry]"}

Complex Diagrams: Use Direct Elements

Lay it out yourself — main path at x=300 going down, branches to the right at x=600:

[
  {"type":"rectangle","x":200,"y":100,"width":220,"height":60,"backgroundColor":"#a5d8ff"},
  {"type":"text","x":230,"y":115,"text":"Step 1","fontSize":18},
  {"type":"arrow","x":310,"y":160,"width":0,"height":60,"points":[[0,0],[0,60]]},
  {"type":"diamond","x":210,"y":230,"width":200,"height":100,"backgroundColor":"#ffec99"},
  {"type":"text","x":270,"y":265,"text":"OK?","fontSize":16},
  {"type":"arrow","x":310,"y":330,"width":0,"height":60,"points":[[0,0],[0,60]]},
  {"type":"rectangle","x":200,"y":400,"width":220,"height":60,"backgroundColor":"#b2f2bb"},
  {"type":"text","x":230,"y":415,"text":"Done","fontSize":18}
]
