diagram-pro

diagram-pro is a skill for Claude Code from lifedever/skills-plugin. It costs 240 tokens per session (2,348 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A diagram-making skill for creating polished business flowcharts and technical architecture diagrams as standalone SVG files inside HTML pages. SVG is a browser-friendly image format that stays sharp when resized.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to produce one-file diagrams with standard shapes, line icons, a legend, zoom and grid controls, and PNG export. It is intended for diagrams people will keep and review, not quick sketches.
Why use it?
It helps when automatically arranged diagrams look too rough for clients, presentations, proposals, design documents, or README files. It also includes a render-and-inspect check to catch visual problems.

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

diagram-pro 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/render.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 156 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Diagram Pro — Deliverable-Grade Diagrams

Hand-write SVG inside a self-contained HTML page. One file per diagram, no build step, no dependencies, opens in any browser, exports a 2× PNG.

Use this — or don't

Use it when the diagram is a deliverable: a bid document, a slide, a design doc, a README, something a client or a room of people will look at. Also use it the moment a Mermaid render gets rejected as "not presentable enough".

Skip it for a throwaway sketch inside the conversation. Mermaid is faster and perfectly fine there. The cost of this skill is real layout work — don't spend it on something nobody keeps.

Signals that you're in deliverable territory: the user names an audience (客户 / 老板 / 评委 / 投标), asks for a file rather than an answer, mentions a document it goes into, or has previously rejected an auto-layout render.

Workflow

1. Pin the content before touching SVG

Do not start drawing until you can state, in plain sentences:

  • What single question does this diagram answer? Write it down — it becomes the subtitle line under the title. If you can't write it, you don't understand the content well enough to lay it out.
  • What are the top-level regions? Two or three groupings that carry the argument (e.g. "inside the wall / the wall / outside the wall", or "user journey / data / algorithm"). Regions come before nodes.
  • What is the reading direction? Left-to-right for boundaries and pipelines; top-to-bottom for decision flows. Pick one and don't mix within a region.

If the content comes from a source document, anchor the wording to that document's own phrasing. Do not invent new terminology, and do not write marketing copy — see the copy rules in the style spec.

When the user's question is conceptual ("how does X actually work"), prefer two focused diagrams over one crowded one: typically a structure/boundary diagram plus a step-by-step flow diagram. Two diagrams that each fit on a screen beat one that needs zooming.

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.
