What this skill does


# Architecture Diagram Creator

Create comprehensive HTML architecture diagrams with data flows, business context, and system architecture.

## When to Use

- "Create architecture diagram for [project]"
- "Generate high-level overview"
- "Document system architecture"
- "Show data flow and processing pipeline"

## Components to Include

1. **Business Context**: objectives, users, value, metrics
2. **Data Flow**: sources → processing → outputs with SVG diagram
3. **Processing Pipeline**: multi-stage visualization
4. **System Architecture**: layered components (data/processing/services/output)
5. **Features**: functional and non-functional requirements
6. **Deployment**: model, prerequisites, workflows

## HTML Structure

```html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
  <title>[Project] Architecture</title>
  <style>
    body { font-family: system-ui; max-width: 1200px; margin: 0 auto; padding: 20px; }
    h1 { background: linear-gradient(135deg, #667eea 0%, #764ba2 100%); color: white; padding: 30px; }
    .section { margin: 30px 0; }
    svg { max-width: 100%; }
    /* Use semantic colors: #4299e1 (data), #ed8936 (processing), #9f7aea (AI), #48bb78 (success) */
  </style>
</head>
<body>
  <h1>[Project Name] - Architecture Overview</h1>

  <!-- Business Context Section -->
  <!-- Data Flow Diagram (SVG) -->
  <!-- Processing Pipeline (SVG) -->
  <!-- System Architecture Layers -->
  <!-- Features Grid -->
  <!-- Deployment Info -->
</body>
</html>
```

## SVG Pattern for Data Flow

```html
<svg viewBox="0 0 800 400">
  <!-- Data sources (left, blue) -->
  <rect x="50" y="150" width="120" height="80" fill="#4299e1"/>

  <!-- Processing (center, orange) -->
  <rect x="340" y="150" width="120" height="80" fill="#ed8936"/>

  <!-- Outputs (right, green) -->
  <rect x="630" y="150" width="120" height="80" fill="#48bb78"/>

  <!-- Arrows connecting -->
  <path d="M170,190 L340,190" stroke="#666" stroke-width="2" marker-end="url(#arrow)"/>
</svg>
```

## Workflow

1. Analyze project (README, code structure)
2. Extract: purpose, data sources, processing, tech stack, outputs
3. Create HTML with all 6 sections
4. Use semantic colors for visual hierarchy
5. Write to `[project]-architecture.html`

Keep diagrams clear, use consistent styling, include real project details.

generating-lwc-components

Included

Lightning Web Components with PICKLES methodology and 165-point scoring. Use this skill when the user creates or edits LWC components, builds wire service patterns, or writes Jest tests for LWC. TRIGGER when: user creates/edits LWC components, touches lwc/**/*.js, .html, .css, .js-meta.xml files, or asks about wire service, SLDS, or Jest LWC tests. DO NOT TRIGGER when: Apex classes (use generating-apex), Aura components, or Visualforce.

tanstack-query

Included

Manage server state in React with TanStack Query v5. Set up queries with useQuery, mutations with useMutation, configure QueryClient caching strategies, implement optimistic updates, and handle infinite scroll with useInfiniteQuery. Use when: setting up data fetching in React projects, migrating from v4 to v5, or fixing object syntax required errors, query callbacks removed issues, cacheTime renamed to gcTime, isPending vs isLoading confusion, keepPreviousData removed problems.

document-processor-api

Included

Process documents with Nutrient DWS. Use when the user wants to generate PDFs from HTML or URLs, convert Office/images/PDFs, assemble or split packets, OCR scans, extract text/tables/key-value pairs, redact PII, watermark, sign, fill forms, optimize PDFs, or produce compliance outputs like PDF/A or PDF/UA. Triggers include convert to PDF, merge these PDFs, OCR this scan, extract tables, redact PII, sign this PDF, make this PDF/A, or linearize for web delivery.
