Excalidraw Diagram Skill

Kheish Compatibility

This skill is repo-local and stays inactive until explicitly activated.

When the original instructions refer to legacy tool names, use these Kheish mappings:

• terminal => bash
• web_extract => web_fetch, plus web_search when discovery is needed
• search_files => grep_search and glob_search
• browser_* tools require a browser-capable surfaced tool or MCP; if none is available, use the closest available surface and say so explicitly

When the instructions mention local helper files, resolve them from ${KHEISH_SKILL_DIR}.

Excalidraw Diagram Skill

Create diagrams by writing standard Excalidraw element JSON and saving as .excalidraw files. These files can be drag-and-dropped onto excalidraw.com for viewing and editing. No accounts, no API keys, no rendering libraries -- just JSON.

Workflow

1. Load this skill (you already did)
2. Write the elements JSON -- an array of Excalidraw element objects
3. Save the file using write_file to create a .excalidraw file
4. Optionally upload for a shareable link using scripts/upload.py via terminal

Saving a Diagram

Wrap your elements array in the standard .excalidraw envelope and save with write_file:

{
  "type": "excalidraw",
  "version": 2,
  "source": "kheish",
  "elements": [ ...your elements array here... ],
  "appState": {
    "viewBackgroundColor": "#ffffff"
  }
}
