Diagrammer

Skills creative-design 120 Scanned by NVIDIA SkillSpector

Render clean blueprint-style SVG diagrams from JSON specs. Use when users ask to draw, sketch, or diagram a request flow, neural net, transformer block, system architecture, state machine, data pipeline, or any node-and-edge technical visual they want as an SVG for docs, READMEs, posts, or slides.

Partial analysis: some checks could not run on this component.

scanner score 0/100

SkillSpector looks for patterns such as shell commands, credential access, network calls or unpinned dependencies. An observation is something worth reading in the files before you install, not a confirmed vulnerability. Components that run code locally, like hooks, MCP servers and security tooling, naturally show more of them.

No observations.

diagrammer

Use diagrammer to turn a small JSON spec into a clean SVG diagram. It is useful when the user wants a precise technical diagram without opening a design tool.

Install

The renderer must be installed locally:

bash
pipx install diagrammer

Workflow

  1. Convert the user's plain-English diagram request into a JSON spec.
  2. Save the spec to a temporary or project file.
  3. Render it:
bash
diagrammer path/to/spec.json > path/to/diagram.svg
  1. Return the SVG path to the user.

Spec Essentials

json
{
  "nodes": [
    {"id": "client", "type": "box", "label": "client"},
    {"id": "api", "type": "box", "label": "api"},
    {"id": "db", "type": "database", "label": "postgres"}
  ],
  "edges": [
    {"from": "client", "to": "api", "label": "request"},
    {"from": "api", "to": "db", "label": "query"}
  ]
}

Built-in node types: box, circle, text, database, stack, group, note, and custom.

Useful optional fields:

  • direction: "LR" or "TB"
  • router: "straight" or "ortho"
  • label on edges
  • style: "solid" or "dashed"
  • weight: "thin" or "thick"

For the full reference, run:

bash
diagrammer prompt

When To Choose This

Use diagrammer when the output should be a checked-in SVG artifact, especially for:

  • README diagrams
  • architecture sketches
  • request flows
  • state machines
  • neural-net or transformer diagrams
  • simple data pipelines

Prefer Mermaid when the user specifically asks for Mermaid syntax or wants diagrams rendered by a Markdown platform. Prefer Excalidraw when the user wants editable hand-drawn canvas files.
