Does this skill generate visual diagrams?

Yes, it generates Mermaid C4Container diagrams that visualize technology choices, deployment boundaries, and communication protocols between services.

Can it document APIs automatically?

Absolutely. It identifies container interfaces and creates full OpenAPI/Swagger specifications for REST, GraphQL, gRPC, and message-driven interfaces.

How does it align with DevOps tools?

It analyzes deployment configurations like Dockerfiles, Kubernetes manifests, and Terraform files to ensure your documentation reflects the actual physical deployment.

What is the C4 Container level in this skill?

The C4 Container level represents the high-level technical building blocks, such as web applications, databases, and microservices, that make up a software system.

Aprendizaje y Documentación

Generates professional C4 Model container-level documentation and API specifications by mapping logical components to physical deployment units.

This skill transforms component-level documentation and infrastructure definitions into comprehensive C4 Container-level architecture descriptions. It specializes in identifying deployment units—such as web applications, APIs, and databases—mapping them to their underlying technologies (Docker, Kubernetes, etc.), and documenting their interactions. By automatically generating OpenAPI/Swagger specifications and Mermaid C4 diagrams, it bridges the gap between logical code structure and physical system deployment, providing a clear roadmap for architects and DevOps engineers to understand how a system is actually built and run.
