# Draw.io XML Architecture Diagram Automator

Programmatically reads and generates Draw.io XML graph files: mxGraphModel elements, mxCell vertices, edges, style strings, and cloud provider icon stencils (AWS, GCP, Azure).

## When to Invoke
Invoke this skill whenever you need to:
- generate draw.io xml python
- export draw.io diagram cli
- automate cloud architecture diagram

## Execution SOP & Rules
1. Construct valid mxGraphModel XML structures with root, mxCell parent, and vertex definitions.
2. Apply official cloud stencil styles (e.g. shape=mxgraph.aws4.compute_instance).
3. Connect nodes with directed edges declaring source and target vertex cell IDs.
4. Export diagrams automatically using drawio -x -f svg -o output.svg input.drawio.

## Verification Checklist
- Run local linting, syntax validation, and type-checks before reporting completion.
- Ensure all created or modified files adhere to workspace boundaries and avoid uncommitted secrets.
- Verify tests or build commands exit cleanly with return code 0.
