SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Traditional technical documentation often lacks a consistent structure and fails to leverage text-based diagrams, making it hard to diff, review, and reuse. This skill provides guidelines to compose Markdown documents that embed Mermaid diagrams by default, ensuring consistent frontmatter, templates, and accessibility.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Mermaid diagrams embedded in Markdown as the canonical source of truth that renders across platforms.
  • Standardized templates and references for architecture, data flows, and workflows to accelerate documentation.
  • Frontmatter-driven discovery and load-time context that AI agents can ingest for activation and reasoning.

Quick Start

Create a Markdown document that uses Mermaid diagrams inline and follows the Markdown Style Guide.

FAQPage Schema
How do I embed Mermaid diagrams in Markdown for scientific documentation?

Mermaid-first Markdown embeds text-based Mermaid diagrams inline as the canonical source of truth, ensuring consistent frontmatter, templates, and accessibility across scientific documentation. This standardizes structure and improves collaboration.

What is the best way to standardize Markdown templates and citations for technical docs?

The best way to standardize Markdown templates and citations is to apply a unified style guide that enforces accessibility, citation conventions, and YAML frontmatter. This ensures machine-readability and AI-friendly context across documents.

Can I use YAML frontmatter to make Markdown documents machine-readable for AI agents?

Yes, YAML frontmatter enables machine-readable Markdown documents by providing load-time context that AI agents can ingest for activation and reasoning. This frontmatter-driven discovery ensures AI-friendly context across your documentation.

Does using Markdown with Mermaid diagrams improve documentation review and diffing?

Yes, Markdown with Mermaid diagrams improves documentation review and diffing because text-based diagrams are version-controllable. This solves traditional documentation issues where inconsistent structure prevents leveraging text-based diagrams.

How do I add accessibility and citations to Markdown architecture diagrams?

You add accessibility and citations to Markdown architecture diagrams by following standardized templates and references that enforce these conventions. This ensures diagrams render consistently across platforms while maintaining machine-readability.
