Mermaid Diagram Skill

This skill enables accurate creation of Mermaid diagrams inside Obsidian Markdown files. The rules and selection guide below always apply; load reference/diagram-types.md for the exact syntax and a worked example of any specific diagram type.

⚠️ Global Syntax Rules (MUST FOLLOW)

1. NO full-width punctuation inside code blocks. All parentheses, commas, colons, and symbols MUST be half-width (English) characters.
   • ❌ ， 。 ！ （ ） ：
   • ✅ , . ! ( ) :
2. Quote node labels containing special characters like (), [], {} using double quotes: A["Label (info)"]
3. No HTML tags in labels (use <br/> only when explicitly needed for line breaks).
4. Indentation matters in mindmaps and timelines — use spaces only, never - or * .
5. Flowcharts default to flowchart TD (top-down) unless the user asks otherwise.
6. Read deeporbit.json from the workspace root to determine the interaction language. Use this language for all your responses and generated note contents (e.g. zh-CN). The Obsidian folder paths themselves will ALWAYS remain in English.

• Set author: ai in frontmatter for every note you create; switch to author: mixed when substantially rewriting a human-authored note. Authorship lives in frontmatter only — never add visible badges.
