excalidraw

excalidraw is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ooiyeefei/ccc. It costs 73 tokens per session (2,184 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Ein Werkzeug zum Erstellen von Architekturdiagrammen als Excalidraw-Dateien aus einer Codebasis. Excalidraw ist ein Zeichenformat für bearbeitbare Skizzen und Diagramme; die Dateien können auch als PNG oder SVG exportiert werden.

In plain words
What is it for?
Für Systemübersichten, Datenflussdiagramme und die Darstellung der Struktur eines Projekts in bearbeitbaren Excalidraw-Dateien oder exportierten Bildern.
Why use it?
Es hilft, Komponenten, Dienste, Datenbanken, Schnittstellen und ihre Beziehungen sichtbar zu machen, ohne dass bereits ein Diagramm oder eine bestimmte Infrastrukturdatei vorhanden sein muss.

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

excalidraw 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 5d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 280 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Excalidraw Diagram Generator

Generate architecture diagrams as .excalidraw files directly from codebase analysis, with optional export to PNG and SVG.


Quick Start

User just asks:

"Generate an architecture diagram for this project"
"Create an excalidraw diagram of the system"
"Visualize this codebase as an excalidraw file"

Claude Code will:

  1. Analyze the codebase (any language/framework)
  2. Identify components, services, databases, APIs
  3. Map relationships and data flows
  4. Generate valid .excalidraw JSON with dynamic IDs and labels
  5. Optionally export to PNG and/or SVG using Playwright

No prerequisites: Works without existing diagrams, Terraform, or specific file types.


Critical Rules

1. NEVER Use Diamond Shapes

Diamond arrow connections are broken in raw Excalidraw JSON. Use styled rectangles instead:

Semantic Meaning Rectangle Style
Orchestrator/Hub Coral (#ffa8a8/#c92a2a) + strokeWidth: 3
Decision Point Orange (#ffd8a8/#e8590c) + dashed stroke

2. Labels Require TWO Elements

The label property does NOT work in raw JSON. Every labeled shape needs:

// 1. Shape with boundElements reference
{
  "id": "my-box",
  "type": "rectangle",
  "boundElements": [{ "type": "text", "id": "my-box-text" }]
}

// 2. Separate text element with containerId
{
  "id": "my-box-text",
  "type": "text",
  "containerId": "my-box",
  "text": "My Label"
}

3. Elbow Arrows Need Three Properties

For 90-degree corners (not curved):

{
  "type": "arrow",
  "roughness": 0,        // Clean lines
  "roundness": null,     // Sharp corners
  "elbowed": true        // 90-degree mode
}

4. Arrow Edge Calculations

Arrows must start/end at shape edges, not centers:

Edge Formula
Top (x + width/2, y)
Bottom (x + width/2, y + height)
Left (x, y + height/2)
Right (x + width, y + height/2)

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.
