Can this skill generate Mermaid diagrams?

Yes, it is specifically designed to create C4Container diagrams using Mermaid syntax for clear, version-controllable architectural visualization.

Does it support API documentation?

Yes, it includes built-in templates for generating OpenAPI/Swagger 3.1.0 specifications for each container's interface to ensure consistent API standards.

What is the C4 Container level?

The container level in the C4 model focuses on the deployable units of a system, such as web applications, databases, and message queues, showing how they communicate over specific protocols.

How does this differ from the C4 Context skill?

The Context skill shows the system as a whole within its environment, while the Container skill zooms in to show the internal deployable parts and their technical choices.

Deployment & DevOps

Generates detailed C4 container-level documentation, deployment diagrams, and API specifications for complex software architectures.

The c4-container skill transforms Claude into an expert software architect specializing in the second level of the C4 model. It provides a structured framework for documenting how a system is decomposed into deployable containers—such as web applications, mobile apps, databases, and serverless functions. By automating the creation of Mermaid diagrams, OpenAPI specifications, and infrastructure requirement documents, this skill helps bridge the gap between high-level system design and low-level code implementation. It is essential for teams managing microservices, cloud-native deployments, or complex multi-tiered applications.
