+# Draw.io Diagrams
+
+## Overview
+
+Generate `.drawio` XML files and export to PNG/SVG/PDF/JPG locally using the native draw.io desktop app CLI.
+
+**Supported formats:** PNG, SVG, PDF, JPG — no browser automation needed.
+
+PNG, SVG, and PDF exports support `--embed-diagram` (`-e`) — the exported file contains the full diagram XML, so opening it in draw.io recovers the editable diagram. Use double extensions (`name.drawio.png`) to signal embedded XML.
+
+## When to Use
+
+**Explicit triggers:** user says "diagram", "visualize", "flowchart", "draw", "architecture diagram", "process flow", "ER diagram", "UML", "sequence diagram", "class diagram", "neural network", "model architecture"
+
+**Proactive triggers:**
+- Explaining a system with 3+ interacting components
+- Describing a multi-step process or decision tree
+- Comparing architectures or approaches side by side
+
+**Skip when:** a simple list or table suffices, or user is in a quick Q&A flow
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+The draw.io desktop app must be installed and the CLI accessible:
+
+```bash
+# macOS (Homebrew — recommended)
+brew install --cask drawio
+draw.io --version
+
+# macOS (full path if not in PATH)
+/Applications/draw.io.app/Contents/MacOS/draw.io --version
+
+# Windows
+"C:\Program Files\draw.io\draw.io.exe" --version
+
+# Linux
+draw.io --version
+```
+
+Install draw.io desktop if missing:
+- macOS: `brew install --cask drawio` or download from https://github.com/jgraph/drawio-desktop/releases
+- Windows: download installer from https://github.com/jgraph/drawio-desktop/releases
+- Linux: download `.deb`/`.rpm` from https://github.com/jgraph/drawio-desktop/releases
+
+## Workflow
+
+Before starting the workflow, assess whether the user's request is specific enough. If key details are missing, ask 1-3 focused questions:
+- **Diagram type** — which preset? (ERD, UML, Sequence, Architecture, ML/DL, Flowchart, or general)
+- **Output format** — PNG (default), SVG, PDF, or JPG?
+- **Output location** — default is the user's working dir; honor any explicit path the user gives (e.g. "put it in `./artifacts/`"). Don't ask if they didn't mention one.
+- **Scope/fidelity** — how many components? Any specific technologies or labels?
+
+Skip clarification if the request already specifies these details or is clearly simple (e.g., "draw a flowchart of X").
+
+0. **Auto-update (first use per conversation)** — silently keep the skill current. Check the timestamp of `<this-skill-dir>/.last_update`. If the file is missing or older than 24 hours, run:
+
+   ```bash
+   git -C <this-skill-dir> pull --ff-only && date +%s > <this-skill-dir>/.last_update
+   ```
+
+   If the pull fails (offline, conflict, not a git checkout, etc.), ignore the error and continue normally. Do not mention the update to the user unless they ask.
+
+**Step 0.5 — Resolve active preset.** Determine which (if any) user-defined style preset applies to this generation.
+
+- Scan the user's message for a phrase that clearly names a style preset: "use my `<name>` style", "with my `<name>` style", "in `<name>` mode", "in the style of `<name>`". A bare `with <name>` does **not** count — "draw a diagram with redis" names a component, not a style. If a clear match is found → active preset = `<name>`.
+- Else, check `~/.drawio-skill/styles/` for any file with `"default": true`. If found → active preset = that one.
+- Else → no preset active; fall through to the built-in color/shape/edge conventions for the rest of the workflow.
+
+Load the preset JSON from `~/.drawio-skill/styles/<name>.json`, falling back to `<this-skill-dir>/styles/built-in/<name>.json`. If the named preset exists in neither location, tell the user the name is unknown, list the available presets (user dir + built-in), and stop — do **not** silently fall back to defaults.
+
+When a preset loads successfully, mention it in the first line of the reply: *"Using preset `<name>` (confidence: `<level>`)."* See the **Applying a preset** subsection below for how the preset changes color/shape/edge/font decisions.
+
+1. **Check deps** — verify `draw.io --version` succeeds; note platform for correct CLI path
+2. **Plan** — identify shapes, relationships, layout (LR or TB), group by tier/layer
+3. **Generate** — write `.drawio` XML file to disk. Default output dir is the user's working dir; if the user specified an output path or directory (e.g. `./artifacts/`, `docs/images/`), use that instead — `mkdir -p` the target dir first. Apply the same dir choice to PNG/SVG/PDF exports in steps 4 and 7.
+4. **Export draft** — run CLI to produce PNG for preview
+5. **Self-check** — use the agent's built-in vision capability to read the exported PNG, catch obvious issues, auto-fix before showing user (requires a vision-enabled model such as Claude Sonnet/Opus)
+6. **Review loop** — show image to user, collect feedback, apply targeted XML edits, re-export, repeat until approved
+7. **Final export** — export approved version to all requested formats, report file paths
+
+### Progress reporting
+
+Keep the user informed during diagram generation:
+
+- Before each long phase, emit a short progress update in natural language.
+- At minimum, report: dependency check, planning/layout, XML generation, draft export, self-check, and final export.
+- For draw.io CLI export commands, describe the intent first, e.g. "Exporting draft PNG from the draw.io source."
+- If export or self-check takes more than one attempt, explain the current retry reason briefly.
+- Do not wait until the final answer to reveal that the agent has been planning, exporting, or diagnosing.
+
+Example progress updates:
+
+```text
+Checking draw.io CLI availability.
+Planning the flowchart layout and node groups.
+Writing the draw.io XML source.
+Exporting draft PNG for preview.
+Running visual self-check on the exported diagram.
+```
+
+### Diagnostic budget
+
+Keep export diagnostics focused and bounded:
+
+- Do not run broad ad-hoc XML matrix tests by default.
+- If export fails, first check the generated file against the documented skeleton and Common Mistakes table.
+- Run at most one focused export retry after applying an obvious fix.
+- Only run minimal XML isolation tests after two failed exports with no clear cause.
+- If isolation tests are needed, cap them at 3 cases and explain the reason before running them.
+- Do not generate many variants such as `title_alone`, `dummy_title`, `dummy_alone`, etc. unless those exact cases directly test the suspected failing element.
+- Prefer delivering the `.drawio` XML plus a clear manual-export note over spending many tool calls on speculative diagnostics.
+
+### Step 5: Self-Check
+
+After exporting the draft PNG, use the agent's vision capability (e.g., Claude's image input) to read the image and check for these issues before showing the user. If the agent does not support vision, skip self-check and show the PNG directly:
+
+| Check | What to look for | Auto-fix action |
+|-------|-----------------|-----------------|
+| Overlapping shapes | Two or more shapes stacked on top of each other | Shift shapes apart by ≥200px |
+| Clipped labels | Text cut off at shape boundaries | Increase shape width/height to fit label |
+| Missing connections | Arrows that don't visually connect to shapes | Verify `source`/`target` ids match existing cells |
+| Off-canvas shapes | Shapes at negative coordinates or far from the main group | Move to positive coordinates near the cluster |
+| Edge-shape overlap | An edge/arrow visually crosses through an unrelated shape | Add waypoints (`<Array as="points">`) to route around the shape, or increase spacing between shapes |
+| Stacked edges | Multiple edges overlap each other on the same path | Distribute entry/exit points across the shape perimeter (use different exitX/entryX values) |
+
+- Max **2 self-check rounds** — if issues remain after 2 fixes, show the user anyway
+- Re-export after each fix and re-read the new PNG
+
+### Step 6: Review Loop
+
+After self-check, show the exported image and ask the user for feedback.
+
+**Targeted edit rules** — for each type of feedback, apply the minimal XML change:
+
+| User request | XML edit action |
+|-------------|----------------|
+| Change color of X | Find `mxCell` by `value` matching X, update `fillColor`/`strokeColor` in `style` |
+| Add a new node | Append a new `mxCell` vertex with next available `id`, position near related nodes |
+| Remove a node | Delete the `mxCell` vertex and any edges with matching `source`/`target` |
+| Move shape X | Update `x`/`y` in the `mxGeometry` of the matching `mxCell` |
+| Resize shape X | Update `width`/`height` in the `mxGeometry` of the matching `mxCell` |
+| Add arrow from A to B | Append a new `mxCell` edge with `source`/`target` matching A and B ids |
+| Change label text | Update the `value` attribute of the matching `mxCell` |
+| Change layout direction | **Full regeneration** — rebuild XML with new orientation |
+
+**Rules:**
+- For single-element changes: edit existing XML in place — preserves layout tuning from prior iterations
+- For layout-wide changes (e.g., swap LR↔TB, "start over"): regenerate full XML
+- Overwrite the same `{name}.png` each iteration — do not create `v1`, `v2`, `v3` files
+- After applying edits, re-export and show the updated image
+- Loop continues until user says approved / done / LGTM
+- **Safety valve:** after 5 iteration rounds, suggest the user open the `.drawio` file in draw.io desktop for fine-grained adjustments
+
+### Step 7: Final Export
+
+Once the user approves:
+- Export to all requested formats (PNG, SVG, PDF, JPG) — default to PNG if not specified
+- Report file paths for both the `.drawio` source file and exported image(s)
+- **Auto-launch:** offer to open the `.drawio` file in draw.io desktop for fine-tuning — `open diagram.drawio` (macOS), `xdg-open` (Linux), `start` (Windows)
+- Confirm files are saved and ready to use
+
+## Style Presets
+
+A **style preset** is a named JSON file that captures a user's visual preferences — palette, shape vocabulary, fonts, edge style. When a preset is active, it fully replaces the built-in conventions described in the `### Applying a preset` subsection below (under `## Draw.io XML Structure`).
+
+**Locations, in lookup order:**
+1. `~/.drawio-skill/styles/<name>.json` — user presets (survive `git pull`).
+2. `<this-skill-dir>/styles/built-in/<name>.json` — built-ins shipped with the skill (`default`, `corporate`, `handdrawn`).
+
+A user preset shadows a built-in of the same name.
+
+Only user presets can have `"default": true`. When the user says *"make `<built-in-name>` my default"*, copy the built-in JSON to `~/.drawio-skill/styles/<name>.json` first, then set `default: true` on the copy — leave the shipped built-in untouched.
+
+**Name normalisation:** always lowercase the user-provided name before writing or looking up files (the preset schema enforces lowercase; uppercase names will fail validation).
+
+### Learn flow
+
+**Triggers:** "learn my style from `<path>` as `<name>`", "save this as `<name>` style", "remember this style as `<name>`".
+
+**Dispatch by file extension:**
+- `.drawio`, `.xml` → XML path
+- `.png`, `.jpg`, `.jpeg`, `.svg` (rasterized flat image) → image path
+
+**Steps:**
+
+1. **Load the extraction reference.** Read `references/style-extraction.md` into context.
+2. **Extract** following the XML path or image path procedure in the reference.
+3. **Normalize and build candidate.** Convert the user-provided preset name to lowercase. Use this normalized name for ALL file paths in this flow. Build the candidate preset JSON and write it to `/tmp/drawio-preset-<name>.json` (where `<name>` is the already-normalized name). Do **not** save to `~/.drawio-skill/styles/<name>.json` yet.
+4. **Render a sample** using the sample-diagram skeleton in `references/style-extraction.md`, parameterized by the candidate preset. Export PNG to `./preset-<name>-sample.png` using the same `draw.io -x -f png -e -s 2 -o ./preset-<name>-sample.png /tmp/drawio-preset-<name>.drawio` command the main workflow uses.
+5. **Show the user:**
+   - Preset summary table (palette hex values, shapes per role, font, edge style, extras).
+   - The sample PNG path (and embed the image if the environment supports it).
+   - Provenance line: `source.type`, `source.path`, `extracted_at`, `confidence`.
+6. **Wait for approval:**
+   - "save" / "looks good" → write candidate to `~/.drawio-skill/styles/<name>.json`. Create `~/.drawio-skill/styles/` if it doesn't exist. Delete tempfile and sample PNG.
+   - "change `<field>` to `<value>`" → edit the in-memory candidate, re-render, re-ask.
+   - "cancel" / "abort" / "no" → delete tempfile and sample PNG; nothing saved.
+
+**Error behavior:**
+
+| Failure | Behavior |
+|---|---|
+| Source path does not exist | Stop; report path not found. |
+| XML parse fails | Stop; report the parse error; suggest opening the file in drawio desktop to repair. |
+| Image vision unavailable | Stop; tell user to re-run on a vision-capable model or provide the `.drawio` file. |
+| Extraction yields 0 vertices / shapes | Stop; refuse to save. |
+| Extraction yields <3 distinct color pairs | Continue; mark `confidence: "low"` (image) or `"medium"` (XML); warn in summary. |
+| Preset name collides with existing user preset | Ask: overwrite, or pick a new name. |
+| Preset name collides with a built-in preset | Save to user dir (shadows the built-in); warn once. |
+| Sample render fails | Still show summary; note "could not render sample — saving on your OK anyway". Do not block. |
+
+### Management operations
+
+All operations are natural language — no slash commands.
+
+*Apply name normalisation (lowercase) to all `<name>`, `<a>`, `<b>` arguments before any file operation.*
+
+| User says | Agent does |
+|---|---|
+| "list my styles", "what styles do I have", "show me my style presets" | Read `~/.drawio-skill/styles/` and `<this-skill-dir>/styles/built-in/`. Print a table: `name`, `location` (user/built-in), `source.type`, `confidence`, `default` flag. Built-ins shadowed by a user preset are marked so. |
+| "show my `<name>` style", "what's in `<name>`" | Print the preset JSON (pretty-printed) + a one-line summary (source, confidence, is-default). |
+| "make `<name>` the default", "set `<name>` as default" | If `<name>` is a user preset: set `default: true` on it; clear `default` on any other user preset that had it; save both files. If `<name>` is a built-in: copy `<this-skill-dir>/styles/built-in/<name>.json` → `~/.drawio-skill/styles/<name>.json` first, then set `default: true` on the copy. Never mutate the shipped built-in. |
+| "remove default", "unset default" | Clear `default: true` from whichever user preset has it. |
+| "delete `<name>`", "remove `<name>`" | Confirm first. Then `rm ~/.drawio-skill/styles/<name>.json`. Refuse to delete files under `<this-skill-dir>/styles/built-in/` — suggest shadowing with a user preset of the same name. |
+| "rename `<a>` to `<b>`" | `mv ~/.drawio-skill/styles/<a>.json ~/.drawio-skill/styles/<b>.json`, then update the `name` field inside. Fails if `<a>` is a built-in (offer to copy-then-rename instead). |
+| "learn my style from `<path>` as `<name>`" | Dispatch to the Learn flow above. |
+
+### Preset file validation
+
+When loading any preset (for generation or management), do a lightweight structural check:
+- Required top-level fields present (`name`, `version`, `palette`, `roles`, `shapes`, `font`, `edges`).
+- `version === 1`.
+- Every populated palette slot has both `fillColor` and `strokeColor` as `#RRGGBB`.
+- `confidence` ∈ {`"low"`, `"medium"`, `"high"`} if present.
+
+On validation failure:
+- **During generation:** warn the user, fall back to built-in conventions for this one diagram, do not mutate the file.
+- **During learn:** refuse to save the candidate; report which field failed.
+
+## Draw.io XML Structure
+
+### File skeleton
+
+```xml
+<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
+<mxfile host="drawio" version="26.0.0">
+  <diagram name="Page-1">
+    <mxGraphModel>
+      <root>
+        <mxCell id="0" />
+        <mxCell id="1" parent="0" />
+        <!-- user shapes start at id="2" -->
+      </root>
+    </mxGraphModel>
+  </diagram>
+</mxfile>
+```
+
+**Rules:**
+- `id="0"` and `id="1"` are required root cells — never omit them
+- User shapes start at `id="2"` and increment sequentially
+- All shapes have `parent="1"` (unless inside a container — then use container's id)
+- All text uses `html=1` in style for proper rendering
+- **Never use `--` inside XML comments** — it's illegal per XML spec and causes parse errors
+- Escape special characters in attribute values: `&amp;`, `&lt;`, `&gt;`, `&quot;`
+- **Multi-line text in labels:** use `&#xa;` for line breaks inside `value` attributes (not literal `\n`). Example: `value="Line 1&#xa;Line 2"`
+
+### Shape types (vertex)
+
+| Style keyword | Use for |
+|--------------|---------|
+| `rounded=0` | plain rectangle (default) |
+| `rounded=1` | rounded rectangle — services, modules |
+| `ellipse;` | circles/ovals — start/end, databases |
+| `rhombus;` | diamond — decision points |
+| `shape=mxgraph.aws4.resourceIcon;` | AWS icons |
+| `shape=cylinder3;` | cylinder — databases |
+| `swimlane;` | group/container with title bar |
+
+### Required properties
+
+```xml
+<!-- Rectangle / rounded box -->
+<mxCell id="2" value="Label" style="rounded=1;whiteSpace=wrap;html=1;fillColor=#dae8fc;strokeColor=#6c8ebf;" vertex="1" parent="1">
+  <mxGeometry x="100" y="100" width="160" height="60" as="geometry" />
+</mxCell>
+
+<!-- Cylinder (database) -->
+<mxCell id="3" value="DB" style="shape=cylinder3;whiteSpace=wrap;html=1;fillColor=#f5f5f5;strokeColor=#666666;fontColor=#333333;" vertex="1" parent="1">
+  <mxGeometry x="350" y="100" width="120" height="80" as="geometry" />
+</mxCell>
+
+<!-- Diamond (decision) -->
+<mxCell id="4" value="Check?" style="rhombus;whiteSpace=wrap;html=1;fillColor=#fff2cc;strokeColor=#d6b656;" vertex="1" parent="1">
+  <mxGeometry x="100" y="220" width="160" height="80" as="geometry" />
+</mxCell>
+```
+
+### Containers and groups
+
+For architecture diagrams with nested elements, use draw.io's parent-child containment — do **not** just place shapes on top of larger shapes.
+
+| Type | Style | When to use |
+|------|-------|-------------|
+| **Group** (invisible) | `group;pointerEvents=0;` | No visual border needed, container has no connections |
+| **Swimlane** (titled) | `swimlane;startSize=30;` | Container needs a visible title bar, or container itself has connections |
+| **Custom container** | Add `container=1;pointerEvents=0;` to any shape | Any shape acting as a container without its own connections |
+
+**Key rules:**
+- Add `pointerEvents=0;` to container styles that should not capture connections between children
+- Children set `parent="containerId"` and use coordinates **relative to the container**
+
+```xml
+<!-- Swimlane container -->
+<mxCell id="svc1" value="User Service" style="swimlane;startSize=30;fillColor=#dae8fc;strokeColor=#6c8ebf;" vertex="1" parent="1">
+  <mxGeometry x="100" y="100" width="300" height="200" as="geometry"/>
+</mxCell>
+<!-- Child inside container — coordinates relative to parent -->
+<mxCell id="api1" value="REST API" style="rounded=1;whiteSpace=wrap;html=1;" vertex="1" parent="svc1">
+  <mxGeometry x="20" y="40" width="120" height="60" as="geometry"/>
+</mxCell>
+<mxCell id="db1" value="Database" style="shape=cylinder3;whiteSpace=wrap;html=1;" vertex="1" parent="svc1">
+  <mxGeometry x="160" y="40" width="120" height="60" as="geometry"/>
+</mxCell>
+```
+
+### Connector (edge)
+
+**CRITICAL:** Every edge `mxCell` must contain a `<mxGeometry relative="1" as="geometry" />` child element. Self-closing edge cells (`<mxCell ... edge="1" ... />`) are **invalid** and will not render. Always use the expanded form.
+
+```xml
+<!-- Directed arrow — always include rounded, orthogonalLoop, jettySize for clean routing -->
+<mxCell id="10" value="" style="edgeStyle=orthogonalEdgeStyle;rounded=1;orthogonalLoop=1;jettySize=auto;html=1;" edge="1" parent="1" source="2" target="3">
+  <mxGeometry relative="1" as="geometry" />
+</mxCell>
+
+<!-- Arrow with label + explicit entry/exit points to control direction -->
+<mxCell id="11" value="HTTP/REST" style="edgeStyle=orthogonalEdgeStyle;rounded=1;orthogonalLoop=1;jettySize=auto;html=1;exitX=0.5;exitY=1;exitDx=0;exitDy=0;entryX=0.5;entryY=0;entryDx=0;entryDy=0;" edge="1" parent="1" source="2" target="4">
+  <mxGeometry relative="1" as="geometry" />
+</mxCell>
+
+<!-- Arrow with waypoints — use when edge must route around other shapes -->
+<mxCell id="12" value="" style="edgeStyle=orthogonalEdgeStyle;rounded=1;orthogonalLoop=1;jettySize=auto;html=1;" edge="1" parent="1" source="3" target="5">
+  <mxGeometry relative="1" as="geometry">
+    <Array as="points">
+      <mxPoint x="500" y="50" />
+    </Array>
+  </mxGeometry>
+</mxCell>
+```
+
+**Edge style rules:**
+- **Animated connectors:** add `flowAnimation=1;` to any edge style to show a moving dot animation along the arrow. Works in SVG export and draw.io desktop — ideal for data-flow and pipeline diagrams. Example: `style="edgeStyle=orthogonalEdgeStyle;flowAnimation=1;rounded=1;..."`
+- **Always** include `rounded=1;orthogonalLoop=1;jettySize=auto` — these enable smart routing that avoids overlaps
+- Pin `exitX/exitY/entryX/entryY` on every edge when a node has 2+ connections — distributes lines across the shape perimeter
+- Add `<Array as="points">` waypoints when an edge must detour around an intermediate shape
+- **Leave room for arrowheads:** the final straight segment between the last bend and the target shape must be ≥20px long. If too short, the arrowhead overlaps the bend and looks broken. Fix by increasing node spacing or adding explicit waypoints
+
+### Distributing connections on a shape
+
+When multiple edges connect to the same shape, assign different entry/exit points to prevent stacking:
+
+| Position | exitX/entryX | exitY/entryY | Use when |
+|----------|-------------|-------------|----------|
+| Top center | 0.5 | 0 | connecting to node above |
+| Top-left | 0.25 | 0 | 2nd connection from top |
+| Top-right | 0.75 | 0 | 3rd connection from top |
+| Right center | 1 | 0.5 | connecting to node on right |
+| Bottom center | 0.5 | 1 | connecting to node below |
+| Left center | 0 | 0.5 | connecting to node on left |
+
+**Rule:** if a shape has N connections on one side, space them evenly (e.g., 3 connections on bottom → exitX = 0.25, 0.5, 0.75)
+
+### Applying a preset
+
+When the Workflow's step *Resolve active preset* identified a preset, it fully replaces the built-in palette, shape keywords, edge defaults, and font for this diagram — do not mix values from the built-in color table below.
+
+**Color lookup.** For each role a shape plays (service / database / queue / gateway / error / external / security), resolve `preset.roles[role]` to a slot name, then `preset.palette[<slot>]` to the `(fillColor, strokeColor)` pair. If `roles[role]` is unset or the resolved slot is `null`, follow this fallback ladder:
+
+1. Try the role's canonical slot (`service→primary`, `database→success`, `queue→warning`, `gateway→accent`, `error→danger`, `external→neutral`, `security→secondary`).
+2. If that slot is also empty, pick the most-populated non-null slot in the preset.
+3. Never reach into the built-in color table below — the preset is authoritative.
+
+**Decision and container shapes** are not in `preset.roles` — they have shape vocabulary (`preset.shapes.decision`, `preset.shapes.container`) but no role-to-slot mapping. Pick their colors as follows:
+- **Decision** (rhombus) → use `preset.palette.warning` (the canonical yellow slot in the built-in conventions). If `warning` is empty, apply the slot-fallback ladder above starting from `warning`.
+- **Container** (swimlane) → use the palette slot matching the tier/grouping the container represents (e.g., a "Services" tier container uses `primary`; a "Data" tier uses `success`). If no tier signal is available, default to `primary`.
+
+**Shape keywords.** Use `preset.shapes[role]` as the **prefix** of the vertex style string (before `whiteSpace=wrap;html=1;...`). Example: for a database role, if `preset.shapes.database = "shape=cylinder3"`, the vertex style starts `shape=cylinder3;whiteSpace=wrap;html=1;fillColor=...`. The six named shape keys are `service`, `database`, `queue`, `decision`, `external`, `container`. Roles `gateway`, `error`, and `security` reuse `preset.shapes.service` unless the preset explicitly populates a key with their name.
+
+**Edges.** Use `preset.edges.style` as the base edge style string. Append `preset.edges.arrow`. Per-edge routing keys (`exitX/exitY/entryX/entryY/...`) are still added by the usual routing rules in the rest of this document. If the flow between two shapes matches a token from `preset.edges.dashedFor` (either because the user's prompt used that word, or because one end of the edge plays a role whose typical relation is "optional"), append `;dashed=1` to the edge style.
+
+**Fonts.** Append `fontFamily=<preset.font.fontFamily>;fontSize=<preset.font.fontSize>` to every vertex style. Container headers and swimlane titles additionally get `fontSize=<preset.font.titleFontSize>;fontStyle=1` when `preset.font.titleBold` is `true`.
+
+**Extras.**
+- `preset.extras.sketch === true` → append `sketch=1` to every vertex style and every edge style.
+- `preset.extras.globalStrokeWidth !== 1` (any value other than the drawio default of 1, including `0.5`) → append `strokeWidth=<n>` to every vertex style and every edge style.
+
+**Interaction with diagram-type presets (ERD / UML / Sequence / ML / Flowchart).** Diagram-type presets earlier in this document set structural style keywords that the user preset must preserve (e.g., ERD tables rely on `shape=table;startSize=30;container=1;childLayout=tableLayout;...`). The rule: keep the diagram-type preset's structural keywords, then layer the user preset's color / font / edge / extras on top. When a diagram-type preset hardcodes a color (`fillColor=#dae8fc`, etc.) that conflicts with the user preset, the user preset's color wins. Exception: `fillColor=none` is structural — do not replace it with a palette color.
+
+### Color palette (fillColor / strokeColor)
+
+*Used only when no preset is active (see "Applying a preset" above).*
+
+| Color name | fillColor | strokeColor | Use for |
+|-----------|-----------|-------------|---------|
+| Blue | `#dae8fc` | `#6c8ebf` | services, clients |
+| Green | `#d5e8d4` | `#82b366` | success, databases |
+| Yellow | `#fff2cc` | `#d6b656` | queues, decisions |
+| Orange | `#ffe6cc` | `#d79b00` | gateways, APIs |
+| Red/Pink | `#f8cecc` | `#b85450` | errors, alerts |
+| Grey | `#f5f5f5` | `#666666` | external/neutral |
+| Purple | `#e1d5e7` | `#9673a6` | security, auth |
+
+### Layout tips
+
+**Spacing — scale with complexity:**
+
+| Diagram complexity | Nodes | Horizontal gap | Vertical gap |
+|-------------------|-------|----------------|--------------|
+| Simple | ≤5 | 200px | 150px |
+| Medium | 6–10 | 280px | 200px |
+| Complex | >10 | 350px | 250px |
+
+**Routing corridors:** between shape rows/columns, leave an extra ~80px empty corridor where edges can route without crossing shapes. Never place a shape in a gap that edges need to traverse.
+
+**Grid alignment:** snap all `x`, `y`, `width`, `height` values to **multiples of 10** — this ensures shapes align cleanly on draw.io's default grid and makes manual editing easier.
+
+**General rules:**
+- Plan a grid before assigning x/y coordinates — sketch node positions on paper/mentally first
+- Group related nodes in the same horizontal or vertical band
+- Use `swimlane` cells for logical grouping with visible borders
+- Place heavily-connected "hub" nodes centrally so edges radiate outward instead of crossing
+- To force straight vertical connections, pin entry/exit points explicitly on edges:
+  `exitX=0.5;exitY=1;exitDx=0;exitDy=0;entryX=0.5;entryY=0;entryDx=0;entryDy=0`
+- Always center-align a child node under its parent (same center x) to avoid diagonal routing
+- **Event bus pattern**: place Kafka/bus nodes in the **center of the service row**, not below — services on either side can reach it with short horizontal arrows (`exitX=1` left side, `exitX=0` right side), eliminating all line crossings
+- Horizontal connections (`exitX=1` or `exitX=0`) never cross vertical nodes in the same row; use them for peer-to-peer and publish connections
+
+**Avoiding edge-shape overlap:**
+- Before finalizing coordinates, trace each edge path mentally — if it must cross an unrelated shape, either move the shape or add waypoints
+- For tree/hierarchical layouts: assign nodes to layers (rows), connect only between adjacent layers to minimize crossings
+- For star/hub layouts: place the hub center, satellites around it — edges stay short and radial
+- When an edge must span multiple rows/columns, route it along the outer corridor, not through the middle of the diagram
+
+## Export
+
+### Commands
+
+```bash
+# macOS — Homebrew (draw.io in PATH)
+draw.io -x -f png -e -s 2 -o diagram.drawio.png input.drawio
+
+# macOS — full path (if not in PATH)
+/Applications/draw.io.app/Contents/MacOS/draw.io -x -f png -e -s 2 -o diagram.drawio.png input.drawio
+
+# Windows
+"C:\Program Files\draw.io\draw.io.exe" -x -f png -e -s 2 -o diagram.drawio.png input.drawio
+
+# Linux (headless — requires xvfb-run)
+xvfb-run -a draw.io -x -f png -e -s 2 -o diagram.drawio.png input.drawio
+
+# SVG export
+draw.io -x -f svg -o diagram.svg input.drawio
+
+# PDF export
+draw.io -x -f pdf -o diagram.pdf input.drawio
+
+# Custom output directory (e.g. CI artifacts dir) — create if missing, then export there
+mkdir -p ./artifacts && draw.io -x -f png -e -s 2 -o ./artifacts/diagram.drawio.png input.drawio
+```
+
+**Key flags:**
+- `-x` — export mode (required)
+- `-f` — format: `png`, `svg`, `pdf`, `jpg`
+- `-e` — embed diagram XML in output (PNG, SVG, PDF only) — exported file remains editable in draw.io
+- `-s` — scale: `1`, `2`, `3` (2 recommended for PNG)
+- `-o` — output file path; accepts any directory (e.g. `./artifacts/diagram.drawio.png`) — `mkdir -p` the target dir first. Use `.drawio.png` double extension when embedding.
+- `-b` — border width around diagram (default: 0, recommend 10)
+- `-t` — transparent background (PNG only)
+- `--page-index 0` — export specific page (default: all)
+
+### Browser fallback (no CLI needed)
+
+When the draw.io desktop CLI is unavailable, generate a browser-editable URL by deflate-compressing and base64-encoding the XML:
+
+```bash
+# Encode .drawio XML into a diagrams.net URL
+python3 -c "
+import zlib, base64, urllib.parse, sys
+xml = open(sys.argv[1]).read()
+# Raw deflate (no zlib header) — diagrams.net uses mxGraph's raw inflate
+c = zlib.compressobj(9, zlib.DEFLATED, -zlib.MAX_WBITS)
+compressed = c.compress(xml.encode('utf-8')) + c.flush()
+# Standard base64 (atob rejects url-safe -/_); strip any newlines
+encoded = base64.b64encode(compressed).decode('utf-8').replace('\n', '')
+print('https://viewer.diagrams.net/?tags=%7B%7D&lightbox=1&edit=_blank#R' + urllib.parse.quote(encoded, safe=''))
+" input.drawio
+```
+
+This produces a client-side URL that opens the diagram in the browser for viewing and editing. No data is uploaded to any server — the entire diagram XML is encoded in the URL fragment (after `#`), which is never sent to the server. Useful when the user cannot install the desktop app.
+
+### Fallback chain
+
+When tools are unavailable, degrade gracefully:
+
+| Scenario | Behavior |
+|----------|----------|
+| draw.io CLI missing, Python available | Use browser fallback (diagrams.net URL) |
+| draw.io CLI missing, Python missing | Generate `.drawio` XML only; instruct user to open in draw.io desktop or diagrams.net manually |
+| Vision unavailable for self-check | Skip self-check (step 5); proceed directly to showing user the exported PNG |
+| Export fails (Chromium/display issues) | On Linux, retry with `xvfb-run -a`; if still failing, deliver `.drawio` XML and suggest manual export |
+| Export fails for unknown XML reason | Apply Diagnostic budget: skeleton check, one focused retry, then at most 3 explained isolation cases |
+
+### Checking if draw.io is in PATH
+
+```bash
+# Try short command first
+if command -v draw.io &>/dev/null; then
+  DRAWIO="draw.io"
+elif [ -f "/Applications/draw.io.app/Contents/MacOS/draw.io" ]; then
+  DRAWIO="/Applications/draw.io.app/Contents/MacOS/draw.io"
+else
+  echo "draw.io not found — install from https://github.com/jgraph/drawio-desktop/releases"
+fi
+```
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+| Mistake | Fix |
+|---------|-----|
+| Missing `id="0"` and `id="1"` root cells | Always include both at the top of `<root>` |
+| Shapes not connected | `source` and `target` on edge must match existing shape `id` values |
+| Export command not found on macOS | Try full path `/Applications/draw.io.app/Contents/MacOS/draw.io` |
+| Linux: blank/error output headlessly | Prefix command with `xvfb-run -a` |
+| PDF export fails | Ensure Chromium is available (draw.io bundles it on desktop) |
+| Background color wrong in CLI export | Known CLI bug; add `--transparent` flag or set background via style |
+| Overlapping shapes | Scale spacing with complexity (200–350px); leave routing corridors |
+| Edges crossing through shapes | Add waypoints, distribute entry/exit points, or increase spacing |
+| Special characters in `value` | Use XML entities: `&amp;` `&lt;` `&gt;` `&quot;` |
+| Iteration loop never ends | After 5 rounds, suggest user open .drawio in draw.io desktop for fine-tuning |
+| Self-closing edge `mxCell` | Always use expanded form with `<mxGeometry>` child — self-closing edges won't render |
+| `--` inside XML comments | Illegal per XML spec — use single hyphens or rephrase |
+| Arrowhead overlaps bend | Final edge segment before target must be ≥20px — increase spacing or add waypoints |
+| Literal `\n` in label text | Use `&#xa;` for line breaks in `value` attributes |
+| Excessive temporary XML tests | Stop after the Diagnostic budget; report the remaining uncertainty and deliver the `.drawio` source |
