Use the hosted instance at https://mcp.excalidraw.com by adding it as a custom MCP connector in your application settings.

Local Installation

Download Pre-built Extension:
1. Get excalidraw-mcp-app.mcpb from the Releases page

Based on the README from the Excalidraw MCP repository, here are the full setup steps for Claude Code:
