om-scogo Blueprinter
Generate technical diagrams using HTML/CSS following the "Flat Engineering Blueprint" style guidelines.
Core Philosophy
Precise, Objective, High Data-Ink Ratio. The output should look like a technical specification sheet or an architectural diagram, NOT a marketing landing page.
Visual Rules
1. No Decorations
- NO drop shadows
- NO gradients
- NO glassmorphism/blur
- NO rounded buttons
2. Flat & Outlined
- Use 1px or 2px solid borders for structure
- Use white backgrounds for content blocks
3. Monochrome Base
| Element | Color |
|---|---|
| Background | Light Gray (#f8fafc) |
| Canvas | White (#ffffff) with Slate Border (#cbd5e1) |
| Text (Main) | High contrast Black (#0f172a) |
| Text (Sub) | Slate Gray (#64748b) |
| Accent | Use BLACK or ONE semantic color (e.g., Red for Error) sparingly |
4. Typography
- Headings/Labels: Sans-serif (Inter/Helvetica)
- Data/Paths/Code: Monospace (JetBrains Mono/Consolas)
5. Layout Structure
- The diagram must be contained within a
diagram-canvas(a bordered box with padding) - Header: Title + Uppercase Subtitle, separated by a solid bottom border
- Grid/Flexbox alignment: Everything must be strictly aligned
6. Elements
- Connectors: Thin, straight or orthogonal lines. Dashed lines for abstract relationships.
- Icons: Simple stroke SVG icons (no fill or complex details)
- Badges: Outlined or solid black/gray blocks. Small font size.

Usage Guidelines
- Always use the CSS variables - never hardcode colors
- Keep it flat - no shadows, no gradients, no blur effects
- Use monospace for data - any technical values, paths, codes should use
--font-mono - Align strictly - use CSS Grid or Flexbox with consistent gaps
- Connect with lines - use SVG for connectors between components
- Minimal icons - if icons are needed, use simple stroke-only SVGs
