What it does
- Authors five diagram types — architecture, workflow, sequence, dataflow, and lifecycle/state — as typed JSON, then renders them to a standalone HTML file with inline SVG.
- Supports dark/light themes, optional trace motion, and PNG/JPEG/WebP/SVG/WebM export.
- Runs a single
finalizecommand that chains validation, delivery, strict provenance checks, and a real-browser check, reporting exactly which gate failed. - Reads Mermaid flowchart, sequenceDiagram, and stateDiagram input and re-authors it natively instead of copying Mermaid styling.
- Can trace an actual repository so the diagram reflects real code behavior.
Who it's for
- Backend/infra engineers documenting system topology or API call chains.
- Technical writers and PMs upgrading rough Mermaid sketches into polished artifacts.
- Non-engineers who need approval flows, order-status maps, or step-by-step plans visualized.
Example uses
- "Diagram the request path on a cache miss" → a validated
sequencediagram plus HTML output. - Paste an existing Mermaid flowchart and ask to beautify it → re-authored as
workfloworarchitecture. - "Show the states a leave request can be in" → a
lifecyclediagram with waiting, rejected, and approved states.

Try it now, no install
Paste this into Claude to use the skill without installing anything.
Read the instructions in this file and follow them to help me: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tt-a1i/archify/HEAD/archify/SKILL.md What I want: (describe your task here)
If Claude can't open the link, open it yourself and paste the contents instead.
↓ If it works for you, download the ZIP below and install it. Then it runs on its own — no pasting each time.
Install in the Claude app (no terminal)
- Download the ZIP with the button below.
- In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on 'Code execution and file creation'. (one time)
- Go to Customize → Skills → + → 'Upload a skill' and upload the ZIP.
Install in Claude Code
Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code
Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart. Copy the archify folder from the GitHub repo tt-a1i/archify into my ~/.claude/skills/archify/. When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.
Install with a command instead
git clone https://github.com/tt-a1i/archify.git /tmp/archify && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r /tmp/archify/archify ~/.claude/skills/archify⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.
- Open a terminal and confirm Node.js is available with
node -v(install it first if missing). - Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/tt-a1i/archify.git /tmp/archify - Create the skills folder:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills - Copy the skill in:
cp -r /tmp/archify/archify ~/.claude/skills/archify - If the package has dependencies, run
npm installinside that folder. - Verify the setup:
node ~/.claude/skills/archify/bin/archify.mjs doctor - Restart Claude Code, then ask something like "draw an architecture diagram of this system" to trigger the skill.
