# getWhiteboardImage Render a whiteboard to a raster IMAGE so you can SEE it and confirm your edits look right, then iterate — like taking a screenshot. Returns the rendered board as a viewable image attached to the result (always raster: a JPEG light variant and/or a PNG dark variant; there is no vector/SVG output, so for a vector export of a single diagram use getDiagramImage). Pass elementIds to render only specific shapes (e.g. to inspect one section/slide), region:{x,y,width,height} to capture an exact scene-coordinate window (e.g. the user's viewport), theme:'light' for the fastest single-variant render, or background to set the canvas colour. Unchanged boards return instantly from a content-keyed cache. Call this after addWhiteboardElements/updateWhiteboardScene to check layout, overlaps, labels and alignment before continuing.

'light' is fastest and right for inspecting your own edits; 'both' (default) also produces the dark variant used by the chat w | | `region` | object | no | Capture only this scene-coordinate window instead of the whole board — e.g. the user's current viewport, or the neighbourhood you are editing. The output is cro | | `background` | string | no | Canvas background colour (default white), e.g. '#ffffff' or 'transparent'. | | `documentId` | string | yes | The whiteboard's documentId. | | `elementIds` | array | no | Render only these element ids (plus their bound labels + group peers) instead of the whole board. | Parameters from the server's own tool schema. ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "getWhiteboardImage", "arguments": { "documentId": "" } } } ``` ## Why getWhiteboardImage is rated Low This is a read-only operation that retrieves and visualizes existing data (whiteboard state) without side effects. Taking a screenshot or rendering a visualization for viewing purposes is fundamentally a data retrieval activity with no capability to modify, execute, or destroy resources. From the tool's own definition: "Tool renders and retrieves a whiteboard visualization as an image for inspection and confirmation. Description states it 'Render a whiteboard to a raster IMAGE so you can SEE it' and 'Returns the rendered board as a viewable image' — no data modification,…" ## Use case AI agents call getWhiteboardImage to retrieve information from Stable Baseline without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Allowed**.
