Is it compatible with standard Markdown?

Absolutely. The diagrams use standard box-drawing characters that render perfectly within code blocks in Markdown files, GitHub, and terminal windows.

Does it support graphical output like PNG or SVG?

The skill primarily generates text-based ASCII diagrams for maximum terminal compatibility, but it provides an export option to Mermaid syntax for generating graphical versions.

How does it handle outdated diagrams?

It uses metadata tracking and git-aware staleness detection to notify you when a diagram may need to be refreshed based on recent file modifications.

Can it automatically detect my project structure?

Yes, it includes codebase auto-discovery capabilities that scan your project files to suggest and populate architectural diagrams based on your actual code.
