Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00015 | $0.01536 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00768 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00003 | $0.00307 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00154 |
Grade A, and why
architecture-diagram 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 8d 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.
This is a copy
100% identical to architecture-diagram — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 149 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Architecture Diagram Skill
Generate professional, dark-themed technical architecture diagrams as standalone HTML files with inline SVG graphics. No external tools, no API keys, no rendering libraries — just write the HTML file and open it in a browser.
Scope
Best suited for:
- Software system architecture (frontend / backend / database layers)
- Cloud infrastructure (VPC, regions, subnets, managed services)
- Microservice / service-mesh topology
- Database + API map, deployment diagrams
- Anything with a tech-infra subject that fits a dark, grid-backed aesthetic
Look elsewhere first for:
- Physics, chemistry, math, biology, or other scientific subjects
- Physical objects (vehicles, hardware, anatomy, cross-sections)
- Floor plans, narrative journeys, educational / textbook-style visuals
- Hand-drawn whiteboard sketches (consider
excalidraw) - Animated explainers (consider an animation skill)
If a more specialized skill is available for the subject, prefer that. If none fits, this skill can also serve as a general SVG diagram fallback — the output will just carry the dark tech aesthetic described below.
Based on Cocoon AI's architecture-diagram-generator (MIT).
Workflow
- User describes their system architecture (components, connections, technologies)
- Generate the HTML file following the design system below
- Save with
write_fileto a.htmlfile (e.g.~/architecture-diagram.html) - User opens in any browser — works offline, no dependencies
Output Location
Save diagrams to a user-specified path, or default to the current working directory:
./[project-name]-architecture.html
Preview
After saving, suggest the user open it:
# macOS
open ./my-architecture.html
# Linux
xdg-open ./my-architecture.html

What ships with it
1 file 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.
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.

architecture-diagram is a skill published in the GitHub repository john-data-chen/hermes-agent-backup (2 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 15 tokens to every session and 1,536 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to architecture-diagram, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.
