  • Context-aware diagram selection: Automatically choose the best diagram type for your use case
  • Professional ASCII formatting: Box-drawing characters, arrows, and status indicators
  • Diagram versioning: Metadata tracking for diagram freshness and staleness detection
  • Mermaid export: Convert ASCII diagrams to Mermaid syntax for graphical rendering
  • Git-aware staleness detection: Automatically flag outdated diagrams based on file changes
  • PR template integration: Auto-include relevant diagrams in pull request descriptions
  • CLAUDE.md directive setup: Optionally configure proactive diagram suggestions
  • Iterative refinement: Adjust width, alignment, and content based on feedback
