Workflow

Step 1: Understand the request

Before generating anything, make sure you know:

• What concept or system are they diagramming?
• What are the major components or sections?
• What is the flow or relationship between them?

If the request is vague (e.g., "make a diagram of Docker"), ask 1-2 clarifying questions:

• What specific aspect? (architecture, networking, volumes, etc.)
• What level of detail? (high-level overview vs. detailed internals)

Step 2: Research if needed

If you're not confident about the technical accuracy of the concept, research it before diagramming. Verify:

• Correct component names and relationships
• Proper hierarchy and nesting
• Accurate data flow direction
