Overview

The drawio-architecture-skill provides a specialized interface for creating professional architecture diagrams, flowcharts, and system diagrams in Claude Code. It leverages the draw.io MCP server to generate diagrams in multiple formats including .drawio source files, PNG, SVG, and PDF. The skill includes predefined color schemes, various node shapes, and supports specialized diagram types like UML diagrams, network topology, and deployment architectures.
