system-diagram-generator is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE. It costs 110 tokens per session (1,273 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A tool for creating text-based diagrams of software structure and behaviour. It can represent architecture, data flows, deployments, and sequences of interactions using formats such as Mermaid or PlantUML.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create diagrams for Markdown files, repositories, technical documentation, and detailed enterprise designs.
Why use it?
It makes components, infrastructure, data movement, and interactions easier to understand and document.

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

system-diagram-generator 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 9d 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.

System Diagram Generator

Generate clear, accurate visual representations of system structure using text-based diagram formats.

Quick Start

When a user requests a system diagram:

  1. Understand the system: Ask clarifying questions about components, relationships, and scope
  2. Choose the format: Select based on user preference or context (default to Mermaid for versatility)
  3. Select diagram type: Match the visualization to the information being conveyed
  4. Generate the diagram: Create the diagram code with clear labels and structure
  5. Provide context: Include a brief explanation of what the diagram shows

Format Selection

Mermaid (Default)

Use for most cases - renders in Markdown, GitHub, GitLab, and many documentation tools.

Best for:

  • Quick visualizations
  • Documentation in Markdown files
  • GitHub/GitLab README files
  • General-purpose diagrams

See: mermaid-patterns.md for examples

PlantUML

Use when detailed UML diagrams are needed or when working with Java/enterprise systems.

Best for:

  • Detailed UML diagrams
  • C4 architecture models
  • Complex component relationships
  • Enterprise documentation

See: plantuml-patterns.md for examples

Graphviz/DOT

Use for complex network topologies or when fine-grained layout control is needed.

Best for:

  • Network diagrams
  • Complex hierarchies
  • Graph structures
  • Custom layout requirements

See: graphviz-patterns.md for examples

Diagram Types

Architecture Diagrams

Show system components, services, databases, and their relationships.

Use when:

  • Explaining system structure
  • Documenting microservices
  • Showing component dependencies
  • Illustrating system boundaries

Key elements:

  • Services/components (boxes)
  • Databases (cylinders)
  • External systems
  • Communication protocols
  • Data stores

Data Flow Diagrams

Illustrate how data moves through the system.

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
