What does the Mermaid Diagram Generation skill do?

It provides expert guidance for creating and rendering diagrams using Mermaid syntax. The skill automates the conversion of `.mmd` text files into high-quality PNG or SVG images for documentation and visualization.

What capabilities does it provide?

This skill offers a standard workflow for using the Mermaid CLI, guidance on correct syntax, best practices for version control, and troubleshooting advice for common errors like browser launch failures during rendering.

How does this skill improve my workflow?

It streamlines your documentation process by treating diagrams as code. This eliminates manual drawing, allows for easy updates via text files, and integrates diagram creation directly into your development and version control workflow.

When should I use this skill?

Use this skill when you need to create version-controllable diagrams like flowcharts, sequence diagrams, or Gantt charts that live alongside your code, ensuring your technical documentation is always reproducible and up-to-date.
