diagram-formatting

When creating or editing ASCII diagrams (architecture diagrams, flowcharts, component layouts), apply these formatting standards.

When to Use This Skill

• Creating architecture diagrams in markdown documents
• Editing existing ASCII diagrams
• Reviewing specifications that contain box-drawing diagrams
• Any time box-drawing characters (─, │, ┌, ┐, └, ┘, ├, ┤, ┬, ┴, ┼) are used

Formatting Standards

1. Border Alignment

All vertical borders must align consistently. The right edge of nested boxes should have consistent spacing to the outer border.
