Can I show live data inside diagram labels?

Yes, by setting 'placeholders=1' in the style and using the %property_name% syntax within the label text.

How do I update a diagram from an external API?

This skill includes a Python script template that fetches JSON data and programmatically modifies the diagram's XML properties based on service IDs.

Does this support automatic color changes based on thresholds?

Absolutely. You can define rules to map numeric values or status strings (like 'healthy' or 'critical') to specific fill and stroke colors.

How do I attach data to a draw.io element?

Use the tag wrapper around an mxCell to store key-value pairs like status, ID, or latency, which can then be used for formatting.

Transforms static draw.io diagrams into data-driven visualizations with conditional styling and dynamic placeholders.

This skill empowers Claude to design and maintain interactive draw.io diagrams that respond to external data. By leveraging custom object properties and placeholder variables, it enables the creation of auto-updating system dashboards, architecture diagrams with live status indicators, and documentation that stays in sync with code. It provides a robust framework for mapping metrics to visual styles—such as color-coding based on latency thresholds—and includes a Python-based utility for programmatically updating diagram XML from APIs or JSON files.
