Cached research evidence for excalidraw-diagram-generator (not authority).
Purpose
Section titled “Purpose”awesome-copilot / community skill (multiple origins) to generate editable Excalidraw diagrams (.excalidraw JSON) from natural language descriptions or codebase analysis. Supports flowcharts, ERDs, architecture, sequence, mindmaps, swimlanes etc. with layout and styling guidance. Often paired with Excalidraw MCP servers for live canvas.
Harness Coverage
Section titled “Harness Coverage”Target agents: antigravity, claude-code, codex, crush, cursor, gemini-cli, github-copilot, grok, opencode.
Trust And Risks
Section titled “Trust And Risks”trust_tier=needs-inspection; status=inspect-then-install; provenance=verified-install-command; GitHub curated + community forks (coleam00, ooiyeefei etc) and excalidraw/excalidraw-mcp; output is diagrams (safe); MCP variants add live canvas write surface - inspect MCP trust if using integrated server. Evidence from awesome-copilot, excalidraw repos, blogs.
Install Prerequisites
Section titled “Install Prerequisites”Install: npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill excalidraw-diagram-generator or community variants; status=inspect-then-install; selector=named; policy=Inspect source, hooks, scripts, credentials, and dedupe before install.
Upstream Maintainer
