Document flows with Mermaid diagram pins
Render architecture and process diagrams as live Mermaid pins—update the diagram text without redrawing in a design tool.
Architecture sketches in slides go stale fast. Mermaid pins store diagram code on the canvas—flowcharts, sequences, and decision trees that re-render when you edit the source text.

Why Mermaid on the canvas?
Versioned in plain text
Diff diagram changes like code.
Always beside context
Place diagrams next to JSON, tables, or Markdown they describe.
Fast iteration
Ask AI to propose Mermaid, then pin the result.
Getting started
Create a Mermaid pin. Paste or generate diagram syntax. Use simple graphs first; split huge systems into multiple pins.
