VisualEther
PCAPs to sequence diagrams — then ask AI why it broke
VisualEther turns Wireshark PCAPs into readable sequence diagrams, and its MCP server lets Claude Code analyze a capture and explain failures in plain English — frame numbers as evidence. Free Community edition; a 45-day trial unlocks AI analysis, triage & CI.
I spent years building satellite networks with an LTE air interface — reconstructing a call flow meant thousands of packets across MAC/RLC/PDCP/RRC/S1AP that you rebuild in your head and redraw on a whiteboard. VisualEther draws that conversation straight from the capture.
It's built on tshark, so anything Wireshark can dissect, it can diagram. The part I'm most excited about is the AI angle: a raw PCAP instantly blows an LLM's context window, so the MCP server extracts only the messages and fields that matter — Claude Code reads kilobytes of structured data instead of megabytes of raw logs, then explains failures with frame numbers as evidence.
The free Community edition renders PDF sequence diagrams from any capture. A 45-day trial unlocks the AI/MCP analysis, browser-based session triage, and larger diagrams.
Finally something that makes digging through PCAPs less painful. The sequence diagram view of a captured TLS handshake was surprisingly clear, and pointing Claude at the file actually surfaced the exact frame where the retransmit happened.

Who hunted VisualEther?
VisualEther was hunted by Sandeep Ahluwalia. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
