Flowchart

Generate Mermaid Flowchart

Create detailed Mermaid flowchart diagrams from tickets, specs, or verbal descriptions.

Input Types

• Ticket key — Fetch and create flowchart from description
• Spec or document — Read and create flowcharts from content
• Verbal description — Create flowchart directly
• File path — Read file and create flowcharts

Analysis

Identify in the content:

• Decision points (if/else conditions)
• User actions (clicks, inputs)
• System actions (calculations, data changes)
• States and transitions
• Edge cases and corner cases
• Multiple scenarios (create separate diagrams if needed)

Mermaid Formatting Rules

• Line breaks: ALWAYS use <br> in node labels, NEVER use \n
• Node shapes:
  • ([text]) for start/end (stadium shape)
  • [text] for actions/processes
  • {text} for decisions/conditions
  • [[text]] for subroutines
• Color coding:
  • fill:#4CAF50,color:#fff — Green for success/start
  • fill:#EF5350,color:#fff — Red for error/blocked
  • fill:#FF9800,color:#fff — Orange for modified/warning
  • fill:#2196F3,color:#fff — Blue for informational
• Flow direction: flowchart TD for process flows, flowchart LR for timelines
• Subgraphs: Use for grouping related items
• Edge labels: Use -- text --> for conditional paths

Output Structure

## {Title}

**Summary:** {description}

```mermaid
flowchart TD
    A([Start]) --> B{Decision?}
    B -- Yes --> C[Action]
    B -- No --> D[Other Action]

    style A fill:#4CAF50,color:#fff

Key Rules:

• Rule 1
• Rule 2

## Rules

- Create SEPARATE diagrams for different scenarios
- Include a main comprehensive diagram AND simplified scenario-specific ones when multiple paths exist
- Do NOT use special characters (quotes, colons, pipes) inside node labels
- Keep node text concise (max 4 lines per node)

## Anti-Patterns

- Don't create one massive diagram when scenarios should be separate
- Don't use `\n` for line breaks — always `<br>`
- Don't skip color coding — it makes diagrams scannable

## Quality Checklist

- [ ] Node shapes match their function (decisions = diamonds, actions = rectangles)
- [ ] Color coding applied consistently
- [ ] Complex flows split into multiple diagrams
- [ ] Edge labels on conditional paths
- [ ] Key rules summarized below diagram
