AI-generated answers based on this skill's SKILL.md and metadata
How do I create a mermaid flowchart?
mermaid-diagram-generator builds flowcharts directly in markdown using Mermaid syntax. Define your flow with nodes and connections, apply styling for clarity, and embed the diagram in your documentation. The skill handles syntax validation and renders publication-ready flowcharts for process visualization.
What diagram types does mermaid-diagram-generator support?
mermaid-diagram-generator supports flowcharts, sequence diagrams for API interactions, entity relationship diagrams (ERD) for database schemas, architecture diagrams for microservices topology, state machines, class hierarchies, git graphs, mindmaps, and timeline diagrams—all embedded in markdown.
How to make sequence diagrams with mermaid-diagram-generator?
mermaid-diagram-generator generates sequence diagrams for system and API interactions by defining actors, messages, and timing. Specify participant roles and message flows in Mermaid syntax, and the skill produces clear visualizations showing how components communicate over time.
Can mermaid-diagram-generator create entity relationship diagrams?
Yes, mermaid-diagram-generator designs database schemas as entity relationship diagrams (ERD). Define entities, attributes, and relationships using Mermaid syntax, and the skill generates visual ERD representations suitable for technical documentation and database planning.
How does mermaid-diagram-generator handle architecture diagrams?
mermaid-diagram-generator visualizes system architecture and microservices topology by mapping components, services, and their interactions. Use Mermaid syntax to define nodes and connections, apply styling for emphasis, and embed the diagram in markdown for clear architectural documentation.
What's the license for mermaid-diagram-generator?
mermaid-diagram-generator is released under the MIT license, allowing free use, modification, and distribution in both open-source and commercial projects with minimal restrictions.

Mermaid Diagram Generator
Create clear, maintainable diagrams using Mermaid syntax in markdown.
Core Workflow
- Identify diagram type: Flow, sequence, ERD, etc.
- Define elements: Nodes, connections, labels
- Apply styling: Colors, shapes, directions
- Add interactions: Click handlers (optional)
- Embed in docs: Markdown integration
