Automated Network Diagrams with DrawIO and pyATS MCP

Infrastructure diagrams that draw themselves — in real time. This video showcases a major breakthrough in network automation: a fully working Draw.io + pyATS MCP integration that moves beyond local scripts into a powerful, HTTP and WebSocket-enabled architecture. ✅ Automatically generate network topology diagrams using Cisco pyATS ✅ Diagrams update dynamically via Model Context Protocol (MCP) ✅ Fully HTTP-native: accessible via REST or WebSocket for CI/CD, ChatOps, and more ✅ Supports AI agents and automation pipelines (LangGraph, A2A, etc.) By transitioning the Draw.io MCP from STDIO to HTTP/WebSocket, this system becomes language-agnostic, cloud-ready, and endlessly extensible. From auto-documenting infrastructure to embedding diagrams in Slack or GitHub Actions, this demo proves what's possible when visualization meets modern automation. 💡 Possibilities Unlocked: Zero-touch network documentation AI-driven, on-demand diagrams from natural language queries Live topology views during CI/CD pipelines or incident response ChatOps and portal integration via WebSocket-triggered diagrams Seamless tool chaining in LangGraph and multi-agent workflows 📎 Project components include: Cisco pyATS Model Context Protocol (MCP) Draw.io (draw.io) Docker, WebSockets, REST APIs LangChain / LangGraph for advanced AI workflows Docker
