Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Vectree every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

learning
get_learning_path
Fetch one Vectree learning path: its ordered steps, each naming the diagram that step teaches. A learning path is a curated sequence of Vectree's labelled schematics that works through a subject from the fundamentals upward. This tool returns the whole sequence in order, so you do not need to fetch the page. Use it after `search_learning_paths`, or whenever you already know a path slug. Every step gives a diagram slug you can pass to `get_diagram` to read that step in full; a step marked "still generating" has no readable diagram yet, so skip it. Only published paths can be fetched. Nothing is generated on demand: an unknown slug simply has no path.
search_learning_paths
Search Vectree's curated learning paths — ordered sequences of diagrams that teach a subject from the ground up, one step at a time. Vectree explains how things work as zoomable, labelled schematics. A learning path strings a set of those diagrams into a syllabus, so a reader moves from the fundamentals of a subject to its harder parts in a deliberate order. Use this when the user wants to *learn*, *study* or *get started with* a whole subject. When they want one specific topic explained instead, use `search_diagrams` — that searches individual diagrams rather than sequences. Describe the subject in natural language; the search is semantic, so a full sentence works better than a bare keyword. Each result carries a slug — pass it to `get_learning_path` for the full ordered sequence. Only published paths are searched. Nothing is generated on demand, so a subject with no match simply has no path yet.
collection
get_collection
Fetch one Vectree collection: its description and the diagrams it contains, in curated order. A collection is an editor-assembled group of Vectree's labelled schematics around one theme — a book shelf, a system map, a skill tree or a set of deep lore. This tool returns the whole group, so you do not need to fetch the page. Use it after `list_collections`, or whenever you already know a collection slug. Each entry gives a diagram slug you can pass to `get_diagram` to read it in full; an entry marked "still generating" has no readable diagram yet, so skip it. Only published collections can be fetched. Nothing is generated on demand: an unknown slug simply has no collection.
collections
list_collections
List Vectree's curated collections — hand-assembled groups of diagrams: book shelves, system maps, skill trees and deep lore. Vectree explains how things work as zoomable, labelled schematics. A collection is an editor-curated set of them around one theme, so it is the best way to see what Vectree covers when you have no specific query yet. Use this to browse, to answer "what is on Vectree?", or to find a themed set of diagrams. When the user already has a topic in mind, use `search_diagrams` instead; when they want an ordered syllabus, use `search_learning_paths`. Every entry carries a slug — pass it to `get_collection` for the diagrams inside. Only published collections are listed, and nothing is generated on demand.
diagram
get_diagram
Fetch the full content of one Vectree diagram: every labelled node with its explanation, a step-by-step walkthrough when the diagram is animated, plus image URLs and links to the diagrams its nodes lead to. Vectree explains how things work as zoomable, labelled schematics; this tool returns the complete text of one of them, so you do not need to fetch the page. Use it after `search_diagrams` to read a result in depth, or whenever you already know a Vectree slug. The `Linked diagrams` and `Related diagrams` sections carry slugs you can pass straight back to this tool to walk the graph. Only public, already-generated diagrams can be fetched. Nothing is generated on demand: an unknown slug simply has no diagram.
diagrams
search_diagrams
Search Vectree's library of ~95,000 interactive concept diagrams by meaning, not keywords. Vectree explains how things work as zoomable, labelled schematics — each diagram breaks a topic into nodes you can read or drill into. Use this when the user wants a diagram, a visual explanation, a systems overview, or a map of how the parts of something fit together. Describe the topic in natural language; the search is semantic, so a full question works better than a bare keyword. Results are ranked by how closely they match and by the quality of the model that generated them. Each result carries a slug — pass it to `get_diagram` for the full content of one diagram. Only public, already-generated diagrams are searched. Nothing is generated on demand, so a topic with no match simply has no diagram yet.

Vectree — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Vectree do?
It exposes 6 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_collection, get_diagram, get_learning_path, list_collections, search_diagrams, search_learning_paths. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Vectree working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 199 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Vectree?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Vectree need an API key?
No. Vectree completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 6 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Vectree?
It answers our handshake in 199 ms on average, which is faster than 68% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
