Draw.io Architecture Studio
Generates, syncs, validates and publishes editable .drawio diagrams from plain requests or from code, IaC, SQL and OpenAPI sources.

What it does
- Produces editable
.drawiofiles (not flattened images) for architecture, ERD, UML, sequence, C4, SysML, BPMN, network, swimlane and infrastructure diagrams. - Converts Terraform, Kubernetes, docker-compose, SQL, OpenAPI and CI configs into a shared Diagram IR, then renders diagrams with provenance.
syncupdates a generated diagram when sources change while preserving manual layout;viewsprojects executive/system/deployment/dataflow/security perspectives.- Adds semantic tooling:
test(architecture policy rules),review(markdown findings),query(reachability),whatif(failure impact),story(accessible HTML walkthrough). - Enforces a disciplined pipeline: structural validation, draft PNG visual inspection with overlap/clipping fixes, then final PNG/SVG/PDF exports with fixed CLI invariants.
Who it's for
- Engineers and architects who need diagrams that stay editable and reviewable.
- Platform/DevOps teams keeping architecture diagrams in sync with real IaC repos.
- Security or governance owners wanting architecture rules checked in CI.
Example uses
- "Diagram my Terraform in
./infra" →diagramctl.py build ./infra --from terraform --ir-output architecture.ir.json. - "Is orders-db reachable from the internet?" →
query --from internet --to orders-db. - "Show blast radius if Kafka fails" →
whatif --fail kafka --drawio kafka-failure.drawio.

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/Agents365-ai/drawio-skill/HEAD/skills/drawio-skill/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 skills/drawio-skill folder from the GitHub repo Agents365-ai/drawio-skill into my ~/.claude/skills/drawio-skill/. When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.
Install with a command instead
git clone https://github.com/Agents365-ai/drawio-skill.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r drawio-skill/skills/drawio-skill ~/.claude/skills/⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.
- Open a terminal and confirm Python 3 is available:
python3 --version - Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/Agents365-ai/drawio-skill.git - Copy the skill into Claude Code's skills folder:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r drawio-skill/skills/drawio-skill ~/.claude/skills/ - (Optional) For native PNG/PDF/SVG exports install the draw.io desktop app: on macOS run
brew install drawio - (Optional) For automatic layout of large graphs install Graphviz:
brew install graphviz - Verify the toolchain:
python3 ~/.claude/skills/drawio-skill/scripts/diagramctl.py doctor - Restart Claude Code, then ask something like "build a draw.io architecture diagram from my Terraform folder".
