Send `"type": "whiteboard"`.

Create whiteboards for freeform brainstorming AND structured strategy work: sticky notes and sections, named frameworks (SWOT, SCAMPER, Six Thinking Hats, Fishbone, empathy maps, Lean/Business Model Canvas, retrospectives, priority/RACI/Eisenhower matrices). NOT for diagrams — system/cloud architecture diagrams are render_cloudarchitecture, flowcharts/UML render_flowchart; NOT for mood/inspiration boards with imagery and color palettes (use render_moodframe); NOT for kanban-style status columns (use render_kanban) or UI/screen mockups and wireframes (use render_wireframelite).

Also available as the MCP tool `render_whiteboard`. The same payload works through either surface.

### Fields

- `components` (object, required): Whiteboard components with 'c' array containing MF_Section, MF_Note2, MF_Text, shapes, MF_ConnectorPath arrows and chart elements
    - `c` (object[])
