Draw.io Academic Skill

Create, edit, replicate, validate, and export publication-ready draw.io figures.

This skill merges two workflows:

  1. The upstream pure drawio-skill workflow: direct .drawio XML generation, Desktop export, self-check, style presets, diagrams.net URL fallback, and diagram-type presets.
  2. This repository's skills/drawio workflow: YAML-first authoring, offline sidecars, academic quality gates, formula handling, and SVG conversion.

Non-Negotiable Contract

  • Keep this fork academic-first and offline-first.
  • Never create, require, or route through .mcp.json or an MCP backend.
  • Treat the YAML spec plus .drawio, .arch.json, and .svg outputs as the normal editable bundle.
  • Use draw.io Desktop only as an optional export enhancer for PNG/PDF/JPG or embedded .drawio.svg.
  • When a requested export cannot be produced locally, still deliver the editable bundle and report the unavailable export clearly.
