Draw.io MCP Diagramming Skill

Use this skill to create or update diagrams through the Draw.io MCP tool and to avoid common Azure and AWS icon rendering problems.

See references/REFERENCE.md for reference artifacts and refresh commands.

For non-Azure/non-AWS diagrams, you can skip icon discovery/validation scripts and proceed directly to drawio/create_diagram.

When to Use

• The user asks to create or refine architecture diagrams (Azure, AWS, or multi-cloud).
• The user wants draw.io/diagrams.net output from an MCP workflow.
• The user needs Azure service icons in diagrams.
• The user needs AWS service icons in diagrams.
• The user reports that Azure or AWS icons/shapes are not appearing.
• The user asks for an auth or identity flow (OAuth 2.0, OIDC, JWT validation, SSO, login, token exchange, Entra, Cognito).
• The user asks for an API or microservice interaction diagram (request/response chain, service-to-service calls, API gateway flow).
• The user asks for a CI/CD pipeline or deployment workflow (build, test, deploy stages, GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, approval gates).
