What is excalidraw-cli GEMINI.md?

A command-line tool for creating editable Excalidraw diagrams from a diagram description, JSON, or Graphviz DOT, then exporting them as PNG or SVG. Excalidraw is a diagram editor, and Graphviz DOT is a text format for describing graphs.

It is for making flowcharts, architecture diagrams, decision trees, editable .excalidraw files, and PNG or SVG exports.

It allows diagrams and image exports to be created without opening a web browser.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00133	$0.00133
Opus 5.5	$0.00053	$0.00053
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00027	$0.00027

Security

Grade A, and why

excalidraw-cli GEMINI.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

excalidraw-cli

This Gemini CLI extension ships the excalidraw-cli skill for creating editable Excalidraw diagrams from DSL, JSON, or Graphviz DOT, then exporting PNG or SVG without a browser.

When the user wants a flowchart, architecture diagram, decision tree, .excalidraw file, or an image export of one, use the excalidraw-cli skill.

Run the CLI with npx --yes @swiftlysingh/excalidraw-cli unless excalidraw-cli is already on PATH or this repo has been built (node dist/cli.js).

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
