Generate-Ilograph: A skill to create auditable sequence diagrams of a codebase

Ilograph released Generate-Ilograph, an agent skill that creates auditable, interactive sequence diagrams of a codebase, installable in Claude Code via the commands /plugin marketplace add ilograph/skills and /plugin install ilograph-skills. Running /generate-ilograph analyzes a repository, prompts the user to choose which system flows to diagram, and writes the results to ilograph.yaml, which can be pasted into the Ilograph web app, Ilograph for Desktop, or Ilograph for Confluence Cloud; a companion /update-ilograph command refreshes the file in place. Each flow step includes code references to specific lines so the diagram can be audited for accuracy, and the YAML declarative syntax lets humans and agents iterate on existing diagrams rather than recreating them.

Installation · Usage · Examples · Why Ilograph · Discussion

This repository contains agent skills for creating detailed, auditable, and interactive Ilograph sequence diagrams of a codebase.

Claude Code #

First, add the marketplace:

/plugin marketplace add ilograph/skills

Then install the plugin from it:

/plugin install ilograph-skills

Open a code repository and run

/generate-ilograph

After analyzing the codebase, the agent will prompt you to choose which system flows to diagram. The number of suggested flows will vary with the size and complexity of the codebase.

Once complete, your Ilograph diagrams will be written to ilograph.yaml. Paste the contents of this file as a new diagram into the Ilograph web app (online version), Ilograph for Desktop (offline version), or Ilograph for Confluence Cloud.

To keep diagram content and code references in sync with the codebase, run

/update-ilograph

This will update the ilograph.yaml file in place.

Ilograph diagrams are interactive and zoomable, allowing coding agents to include far more detail than is possible with static, image-based diagrams.

Steps in the flows generated with these skills include code references to specific lines in the codebase, ensuring that each flow can be audited for accuracy.

Sequence flows in Ilograph diagrams can be nested, meaning there is practically no limit to how large and detailed they can be.

Ilograph diagrams are defined in a declarative syntax (YAML), allowing both humans and agents to iterate on existing diagrams instead of re-creating them from scratch when a codebase changes.
