SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams quickly convert refined ideas into visual architecture diagrams, reducing ambiguity and accelerating early planning.

Core Features & Use Cases

Reads ideation outputs and tool configurations to determine which diagram types to create (e.g., system architecture, data flow, sequence, and integration diagrams).
Generates diagrams using Mermaid (Markdown) when tools are enabled; Excalidraw diagrams are produced when enabled; if no tools are available, it creates a concise architecture-description.md in the idea folder.
Saves artifacts and updates summaries to reference newly generated diagrams, ensuring traceability across idea versions.
Human-in-the-loop review and approval gating before finalizing artifacts.

Quick Start

Select a current idea folder, then trigger the skill flow to generate architecture diagrams based on the latest idea-summary.

FAQPage Schema

How do I generate architecture diagrams from text ideas?▼

To generate architecture diagrams from text ideas, this Skill reads your idea summary and tool configuration to automatically produce system architecture, data flow, and sequence visuals. It identifies required diagrams and saves artifacts directly in your idea folder.

Can I use Mermaid and Excalidraw to create system architecture diagrams?▼

Yes, you can use Mermaid and Excalidraw to create system architecture diagrams. The workflow supports Mermaid markdown pipelines and Excalidraw generation when those tools are enabled in your configuration.

What happens if no diagram tools are enabled for my project?▼

If no diagram tools are enabled, the architecture generation falls back to creating a concise architecture-description.md file in your idea folder instead of generating visual diagrams.

Does generating data flow and sequence diagrams require manual review?▼

Yes, generating data flow and sequence diagrams requires manual review. A human-in-the-loop approval gate checks the artifacts before finalizing them and updating the summary references.

What types of diagrams can I create from an idea summary?▼

From an idea summary, you can create system architecture, data flow, sequence, and integration diagrams. The Skill identifies the required diagram types based on your refined ideation outputs.
