name: mindm-mindmap description: High-level MindManager mindmap operations via the mindm-mindmap CLI or python -m mindmap.actions. Use when a map must be read (mindmap, selection, grounding info), serialized to Mermaid, or created from Mermaid.

Mindm Mindmap

Overview

Use the mindm-mindmap CLI to query the current MindManager map or create a new map from Mermaid. This skill targets high-level map operations that mirror the MCP server capabilities.

Quick start

Get the current mindmap as JSON:

Copyuvx --from mindm mindm-mindmap get-mindmap --mode content

Get the current selection:

Copymindm-mindmap get-selection --mode content

Get grounding information:

Copymindm-mindmap get-grounding-information --mode content

Serialize to Mermaid:

Copymindm-mindmap serialize-mermaid
mindm-mindmap serialize-mermaid --mode full --id-only

Create a map from Mermaid:

Copymindm-mindmap create-from-mermaid --input /tmp/map.mmd

Create a map from Mermaid (full metadata or simplified indentation). The CLI auto-detects the format.

Round-trip test (serialize → create):

Copymindm-mindmap serialize-mermaid --mode full | mindm-mindmap create-from-mermaid

Notes

• Keep MindManager open with the target map active before running the CLI.
• For macOS, use --macos-access applescript (default) or appscript.
• For full flag details, read skills/mindm-mindmap/references/cli.md.
• For full Mermaid metadata (notes, links, icons, tags), read skills/mindm-mindmap/references/mermaid.md.
• JSON responses return the raw data for the command. Errors return {"error": "...", "message": "..."}.
