Planning complex software work often lacks a single, unambiguous artifact that captures entities, data flows, function contracts, parallelization, and dependencies; this Skill produces diagram-first plans that make implementation-ready decisions explicit and reviewable before any coding begins.
Ask the agent to create a mermaid-based implementation plan for a specified feature, including entities, function signatures, labeled data flows, external dependencies, and a summary of open questions.

To create a mermaid diagram implementation plan, you define software entities, function signatures, labeled data flows, and external dependencies. The plan uses subgraphs and parallel markers to make architectural decisions explicit and reviewable before coding begins.
Diagram-first planning uses mermaid diagrams as the canonical artifact to capture entities, data flows, and function contracts. It ensures implementation-ready decisions are explicit, structured, and reviewed before any development starts.
You break down complex tasks by analyzing structured entities and applying multi-agent orchestration to cross-cutting features. Specialist planners align on diagram standards and handoffs across UI, API, database, and external services.
No, the planning process strictly prohibits starting implementation within the planning phase. It enforces an explicit pause for user feedback after generating mermaid diagrams to ensure the architectural plan is fully reviewed.
You need a multi-agent workflow for feature planning when dealing with cross-cutting features that span UI, API, database, and external services. This approach allows specialist planners to align on diagram standards and manage handoffs.
A mermaid architecture diagram for codebase research should include function signatures, labeled edges for data flows, subgraphs for system boundaries, and parallel markers. It must be generated using a rendering tool after clarifying questions are answered.
