draw-io

Instructions for editing draw.io files, which are editable diagrams, and converting them into PNG images. It also sets font details needed when diagrams are used in Quarto slides.

In plain words
What is it for?
Edit .drawio diagrams, export them as transparent PNGs, and prepare diagrams for Quarto presentations with explicit font settings.
Why use it?
It keeps the editable diagram as the source and provides a repeatable way to produce a high-resolution image. The font rules help text render consistently in slide decks.

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

draw-io 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 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/convert-drawio-to-png.sh, scripts/find_aws_icon.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 — 279 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

draw.io Diagram Skill

1. Basic Rules

  • Edit only .drawio files
  • Do not directly edit .drawio.png files
  • Use auto-generated .drawio.png by pre-commit hook in slides

2. Font Settings

For diagrams used in Quarto slides, specify defaultFontFamily in mxGraphModel tag:

<mxGraphModel defaultFontFamily="Noto Sans JP" ...>

Also explicitly specify fontFamily in each text element's style attribute:

style="text;html=1;fontSize=27;fontFamily=Noto Sans JP;"

3. Conversion Commands

See conversion script at scripts/convert-drawio-to-png.sh.

# Convert all .drawio files
mise exec -- pre-commit run --all-files

# Convert specific .drawio file
mise exec -- pre-commit run convert-drawio-to-png --files assets/my-diagram.drawio

# Run script directly (using skill's script)
bash ~/.claude/skills/draw-io/scripts/convert-drawio-to-png.sh assets/diagram1.drawio

Internal command used:

drawio -x -f png -s 2 -t -o output.drawio.png input.drawio
Option Description
-x Export mode
-f png PNG format output
-s 2 2x scale (high resolution)
-t Transparent background
-o Output file path

4. Layout Adjustment

4.1. Coordinate Adjustment Steps

  1. Open .drawio file in text editor (plain XML format)
  2. Find mxCell for element to adjust (search by value attribute for text)
  3. Adjust coordinates in mxGeometry tag
    • x: Position from left
    • y: Position from top
    • width: Width
    • height: Height
  4. Run conversion and verify

4.2. Coordinate Calculation

  • Element center coordinate = y + (height / 2)
  • To align multiple elements, calculate and match center coordinates

5. Design Principles

5.1. Basic Principles

  • Clarity: Create simple, visually clean diagrams
  • Consistency: Unify colors, fonts, icon sizes, line thickness
  • Accuracy: Do not sacrifice accuracy for simplification

5.2. Element Rules

Files

What ships with it

5 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.
