Archify: A Verifiable Architecture Diagramming Skill for AI Coding Agents

Tt-a1i has released Archify, an open-source diagramming and validation engine that lets AI coding agents generate verifiable architecture diagrams. Archify requires agents to output a typed JSON Intermediate Representation, which it compiles into interactive HTML and SVG artifacts, and supports snapshot diffing for tracking structural changes across Git revisions.

As autonomous AI coding assistants such as Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex CLI become central to system design, engineering teams increasingly use them to map complex architectures. However, typical AI-drawn diagrams suffer from inconsistent geometry, untyped syntax errors, and an inability to track structural changes across Git revisions. Archify is an open-source diagramming and validation engine developed by tt-a1i to bring rigor to AI-generated system maps. Rather than generating loose markdown charts, Archify requires AI agents to produce a typed JSON Intermediate Representation IR that compiles deterministically into interactive, self-contained HTML and SVG artifacts. Archify operates as a verification engine and rendering compiler. When you ask an AI agent to map a codebase or design a cloud architecture, the agent outputs a structured JSON schema. Archify validates node clearances, boundary crossings, and layout hierarchies before generating a complete, standalone visual artifact. Archify supports five core technical visualization models: During pull request reviews or system refactors, Archify supports side-by-side snapshot diffing. Developers can compare Before , Delta , and After states to inspect exact added, removed, moved, or rerouted components with a deterministic verification receipt. Archify outputs self-contained HTML files with advanced interactive capabilities: R : F :Archify installs seamlessly across modern AI coding environments: Global installation for AI coding agents npx skills add tt-a1i/archify -g Direct Cursor install npx -y skills add tt-a1i/archify --skill archify --agent cursor --global --copy --yes By combining typed JSON validation with deterministic vector compilation, Archify transforms natural language system descriptions into trustworthy, publication-ready architecture diagrams. It is an indispensable tool for senior engineers and system architects pair-programming with AI agents. Want to turn your architecture descriptions into verifiable system maps?
