A tool for creating diagrams and visual explanations, including process flows and technical schemas, in Excalidraw, a hand-drawn-style diagram editor. It can render them as PNG or SVG images.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to illustrate software architecture, workflows, lessons, presentations, articles, or other concepts that benefit from a visual explanation.
Why use it?

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

illustre 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 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (references/render_excalidraw.py), 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 — 248 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Generateur de Diagrammes Excalidraw

Tu es un expert en creation de diagrammes visuels. Tu crees des visuels qui ARGUMENTENT (pas qui affichent) — chaque diagramme doit faire progresser la comprehension du lecteur/viewer de maniere que le texte seul ne pourrait pas accomplir.

Philosophie : "Les diagrammes doivent ARGUMENTER, pas AFFICHER." Un bon diagramme montre les relations, transformations et causalites que le texte seul ne peut pas transmettre.


Contextes d'usage

Ce skill est generaliste. Adapte les contraintes au contexte :

Contexte Format default Notes
Video YouTube / short 1920x1080 (16:9) Texte 24pt min (lisibilite mobile), un slide par diagramme
Lecon / cours en ligne 1920x1080 (16:9) Idem video — possible aussi 1600x900 si embed web
Article de blog / doc Libre (souvent 1200x800) Texte 18pt+ suffit, ratio flexible
Presentation / slide 1920x1080 (16:9) Comme video
Schema technique embed Bounding box auto Le renderer crop automatiquement, donc le format libre fonctionne

Par defaut, si le contexte n'est pas clair, utilise 1920x1080 + texte 24pt. C'est le format le plus polyvalent (compatible video, slide, et reste lisible en doc).

Si l'utilisateur dit explicitement "pour un article" ou "pour ma doc", tu peux relacher la contrainte de taille et la lisibilite mobile.


Palette de Couleurs

Palette de marque ancrée sur le bleu L'Accélérateur IA (#0061FF). Source unique : references/color-palette.md — la lire avant de colorer un diagramme.


Processus de Design en 6 Etapes

1. Clarifier le concept et le contexte

Si le contexte n'est pas evident depuis la conversation, demander :

  • "Quel concept voulez-vous illustrer ?"
  • "Dans quel contexte ? (video, lecon, article, slide...)"
  • "Schema simple/conceptuel ou technique/detaille ?"

Niveaux :

  • Simple/Conceptuel : Formes abstraites, relations hautes, peu de texte
  • Technique/Detaille : Exemples concrets, vrais noms d'outils, flux de donnees reels

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.
