README

draw-diagrams — an agent skill for mind maps

A [Agent Skills](https://www.anthropic.com/research/equipping-agents-for-the-real-world-with-agent-skills) package (SKILL.md + one zero-dependency Python script) that teaches any SKILL.md-compatible coding agent (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor, Copilot, and 20+ others) to turn text into a real, editable mind map:

  • .svg — a clean static image for docs / PRs / chat.
  • .xdt — the editable source file (MemoBrain format).
  • A one-click link — https://app.memobrain.net/?import=… opens the diagram in the browser, already laid out, fully editable. Free to edit, free account to save, membership for watermark-free export and more.
  • 25 layouts (--layout fishbone, h-timeline, tree-table, matrix-h…) and 9 color themes (--theme forest, blackboard…) — carried by the link, baked into the .xdt (app's colorizeForTheme semantics: node/edge colors + straight/curve branch lines + canvas), and rendered in the .svg preview.

The generated `.xdt` stores the tree plus (for non-default themes) baked theme colors — no coordinates ever. Layout and 30 layout modes happen inside [MemoBrain](https://memobrain.net) when opened — the skill never guesses geometry. CJK-aware text measuring keeps Chinese/Japanese/Korean labels inside their node boxes.

Install

One command (works with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI and other agents the CLI detects):

npx skills add memobrain/draw-diagrams

Or copy this folder into your agent's skills directory:

Agent Location
Claude Code (personal) ~/.claude/skills/draw-diagrams/
Claude Code (project) .claude/skills/draw-diagrams/
Tool-agnostic (many agents) ~/.agents/skills/draw-diagrams/
DeepSeek Harness nothing to configure — it auto-discovers ~/.agents/skills/
Others any folder your agent discovers SKILL.md from

Or clone directly:

git clone https
