# Mermaid Visualizer

## Overview

Convert text content into clean, professional Mermaid diagrams optimized for presentations and documentation. Automatically handles common syntax pitfalls (list syntax conflicts, subgraph naming, spacing issues) to ensure diagrams render correctly in TriliumNext Note / Trilium Note, GitHub, and other Mermaid-compatible platforms.

## Quick Start

When creating a Mermaid diagram:

1. **Analyze the content** - Identify key concepts, relationships, and flow
2. **Choose diagram type** - Select the most appropriate visualization (see Diagram Types below)
3. **Select configuration** - Determine layout, detail level, and styling
4. **Generate diagram** - Create syntactically correct Mermaid code

**Default assumptions:**
- Vertical layout (TB) unless horizontal requested
- Medium detail level (balanced between simplicity and information)
- Professional color scheme with semantic colors
- TriliumNext Note / Trilium Note/GitHub compatible syntax

## Diagram Types

### 1. Process Flow (graph TB/LR)
**Best for:** Workflows, decision trees, sequential processes, AI agent architectures

**Use when:** Content describes steps, stages, or a sequence of actions

**Key features:**
- Swimlanes via subgraph for grouping related steps
- Arrow labels for transitions
- Feedback loops and branches
- Color-coded stages

**Configuration options:**
- `layout`: "vertical" (TB), "horizontal" (LR)
- `detail`: "simple" (core steps only), "standard" (with descriptions), "detailed" (with annotations)
- `style`: "minimal", "professional", "colorful"

### 2. Circular Flow (graph TD with circular layout)
**Best for:** Cyclic processes, continuous improvement loops, agent feedback systems

**Use when:** Content emphasizes iteration, feedback, or circular relationships

**Key features:**
- Central hub with radiating elements
- Curved feedback arrows
- Clear cycle indicators

### 3. Comparison Diagram (graph TB with parallel paths)
**Best for:** Before/after comparisons
