How we review

Minimal accessThe tool runs nothing and makes no network calls.

  • The skill contains only instructions and an HTML template

This is third-party code. Review the repository files before installing.

What it does

From a text description of a system, the skill builds a dark-themed architecture diagram. Components are colored by type: frontend, backend, databases, cloud, security, message bus and external systems. Security groups and regions get dashed borders, and arrows show data flow. Summary cards sit below the diagram. The output opens in any browser, with header buttons to copy the image or export PNG and PDF.

Who it is for. For developers, architects and technical writers who need a clean system diagram without a drawing tool.

Good fit when

  • You need an architecture diagram for docs or slides
  • You want to show cloud infrastructure and service links visually
  • You want to iterate on the diagram through chat edits

Not a fit when

  • You need a step-by-step process flow; the author has a separate skill for that
  • You need an editable format such as draw.io or Mermaid

Example request

Draw an architecture diagram: React frontend, Node.js API, PostgreSQL, Redis cache, all on AWS behind CloudFront

Limitations

One style only: a dark theme with JetBrains Mono loaded from Google Fonts. Uploading the skill to claude.ai requires code execution to be enabled.

How to disable. In claude.ai toggle off or delete the skill under Customize, Skills. In Claude Code remove the architecture-diagram folder from ~/.claude/skills.

FAQ

Where do I get the architecture description?

Ask an agent to analyze your codebase, list components by hand, or ask for a typical architecture for your kind of product.

Do I need anything to open the result?

No, it is a single HTML file with embedded styles and SVG.

README in short

The README lays out three steps: install the skill, get a text description of the system and ask Claude to draw it. It gives sample prompts for a web app, AWS serverless and microservices, a color table by component type and the output file structure. Install by uploading the zip to claude.ai, to project knowledge, or unpacking into the Claude Code skills directory. MIT licensed.

## Design System

### Color Palette

Use these semantic colors for component types:

| Backend | `rgba(6, 78, 59, 0.4)` | `#34d399` (emerald-400) |
| Database | `rgba(76, 29, 149, 0.4)` | `#a78bfa` (violet-400) |
| AWS/Cloud | `rgba(120, 53, 15, 0.3)` | `#fbbf24` (amber-400) |
| Security | `rgba(136, 19, 55, 0.4)` | `#fb7185` (rose-400) |
| Message Bus | `rgba(251, 146, 60, 0.3)` | `#fb923c` (orange-400) |
| External/Generic | `rgba(30, 41, 59, 0.5)` | `#94a3b8` (slate-400) |

### Typography

Use JetBrains Mono for all text (monospace, technical aesthetic):
```html
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=JetBrains+Mono:wght@400;500;600;700&display=swap" rel="stylesheet">
```

Font sizes: 12px for component names, 9px for sublabels, 8px for annotations, 7px for tiny labels.
