Salesforce architecture diagrams using Mermaid with ASCII fallback. TRIGGER when: user says "diagram", "visualize", "ERD", or asks for sequence diagrams, flowcharts, class diagrams, or architecture visualizations in Mermaid. DO NOT TRIGGER when: user wants PNG/SVG image output (use sf-diagram-nanoba

sf diagram mermaid: Salesforce Diagram Generation Use this skill when the user needs text based diagrams : Mermaid diagrams for architecture, OAuth, integration flows, ERDs, or Agentforce structure, plus ASCII fallback when plain text compatibility matters. When This Skill Owns the Task Use sf diagram mermaid when the user wants: Mermaid output ASCII fallback diagrams architecture, sequence, flowchart, or ERD views in markdown friendly form diagrams that can live directly in docs, READMEs, or issues Delegate elsewhere when the user wants: rendered PNG/SVG images or polished mockups → [sf diagram nanobananapro](../sf diagram nanobananapro/SKILL.md) non Salesforce systems only → use a more general diagramming skill object discovery before an ERD → [sf metadata](../sf metadata/SKILL.md) Supported Diagram Families Type Preferred Mermaid form Typical use OAuth / auth flows sequenceDiagram Authorization Code, JWT, PKCE, Device Flow ERD / data model flowchart LR object relationships and sharing context integration sequence sequenceDiagram request/response or event choreography system landscape flowchart high level architecture role / access hierarchy flowchart users, profiles, permissions Agentforce behavior map flowchart agent → topic → action relationships Required Context to Gather First Ask for or infer: diagram type scope and entities / systems involved output preference: Mermaid only, ASCII only, or both whether styling should be minimal, documentation first, or presentation friendly for ERDs: whether org metadata is available for grounding Recommended Workflow 1. Pick the right diagram structure use sequenceDiagram for time ordered interactions use flowchart LR for ERDs and capability maps keep a single primary story per diagram when possible 2. Gather data For ERDs and grounded diagrams: use [sf metadata](../sf metadata/SKILL.md) when real schema discovery is needed optionally use the local metadata helper script for counts / relationship context when appropriate 3. Generate Mermaid first Apply: accurate labels simple readable node text consistent relationship notation restrained styling that renders cleanly in markdown viewers 4. Add ASCII fallback when useful Provide an ASCII version when the user wants terminal compatibility or plaintext documentation. 5. Explain the diagram briefly Call out the key relationships, flow direction, and any assumptions. High Signal Rules For sequence diagrams use autonumber when step order matters distinguish requests vs responses clearly use notes sparingly for protocol detail For ERDs prefer flowchart LR keep object cards simple use clear relationship arrows avoid field overload unless the user explicitly asks for field level detail color code object types only when it improves readability For ASCII output keep width reasonable align arrows and boxes consistently optimize for readability over decoration Output Format mermaid <diagram text <ascii Cross Skill Integration Need Delegate to Reason real object / field definitions [sf metadata](../sf metadata/SKILL.md) grounded ERD generation rendered diagram / image output [sf diagram nanobananapro](../sf diagram nanobananapro/SKILL.md) visual polish beyond Mermaid connected app auth setup context [sf connected apps](../sf connected apps/SKILL.md) accurate OAuth flows Agentforce logic visualization [sf ai agentscript](../sf ai agentscript/SKILL.md) source of truth behavior details Flow behavior diagrams [sf flow](../sf flow/SKILL.md) actual Flow logic grounding Reference Map Start here [references/diagram conventions.md](references/diagram conventions.md) [references/mermaid reference.md](references/mermaid reference.md) [references/usage examples.md](references/usage examples.md) Styling / ERD specifics [references/mermaid styling.md](references/mermaid styling.md) [references/color palette.md](references/color palette.md) [references/erd conventions.md](references/erd conventions.md) Preview [references/preview guide.md](references/preview guide.md) [scripts/mermaid preview.py](scripts/mermaid preview.py) [scripts/query org metadata.py](scripts/query org metadata.py) Score Guide Score Meaning 72–80 production ready diagram 60–71 clear and useful with minor polish left 48–59 functional but could be clearer 35–47 needs structural improvement < 35 inaccurate or incomplete
