50826c0ac8 feat(diagram-engine): open shape vocabulary — catalog + pass-through, structured style merge
The expressiveness gap traced to vocabulary: draw.io has hundreds of shapes,
the declarative layer allowed six. Opening it, with the failure modes from
design review handled:

- shapes.ts: a ~20-entry curated catalog (full style fragment incl. the
  matching perimeter — required or edges connect to the bounding box; a
  text-scale factor verified in the real editor — the same sentence overflows
  a 1.0x rhombus and fits a 1.5x one; labelOutside+glyph for umlActor-style
  figures). Any other token passes through verbatim: draw.io degrades unknown
  shapes to rectangles safely (verified). Injection-capable tokens (;/=) are
  rejected outright.
- Pass-through emits a WARNING with a nearest-catalog hint (bounded edit
  distance), so a typo'd 'cyclinder' is a one-turn fix instead of a silently
  rectangular node forever. set_shape/set_role/set_group operations make the
  fix possible without remove+re-add (which would drop links).
- mergeStyle(): style fragments merge per-key (later wins, bare shape classes
  displace each other) instead of string concatenation. This is what makes
  shape and theme composable by rule — shape owns geometry keys, theme owns
  colour/type keys, and an overlap resolves by order instead of emitting
  contradictory duplicates.
- dai_shape marker carries the declared token through the round trip:
  appearance-based reverse mapping cannot distinguish aliases (diamond vs
  decision) or a rotated queue from a cylinder.
- dai_auto marker separates engine-measured size from user-fixed size: parsed
  boxes no longer freeze the first layout's numbers, so changing a label
  re-measures. Pinned nodes keep everything, as before.
- draw_graph's closed shape enum opened to match (first instance of the
  schema-drift problem the review predicted).

14 new tests: merge ownership, injection rejection, near-match hints,
alias-preserving round trip, re-measure on label change, mxgraph.* tokens
staying boxes with role/group intact. 556 unit tests green; acceptance
diagram (person/hexagon/cylinder/queue/cloud/decision/callout) verified in
the real editor.

db9db1ff4e feat(diagram-engine): flex knobs (grow/align/pad) + inline rich-text labels
The expressiveness gap between engine output and hand-written XML came down
to two missing capabilities, both generic:

- Block layout inside a box: nested containers already existed, but there was
  no way to split space by weight, pin a child to an edge, or tighten padding.
  Added grow (flex-grow over the parent's leftover flow-axis space, TeX's
  glue), align (start/center/end/stretch on the cross axis) and pad
  (per-group interior padding). All three round-trip via dai_grow/dai_align/
  dai_pad markers.

- Inline rich text: labels already render HTML (html=1 on every style, esc()
  entities decode back), but the measure pass counted markup as text. The
  visibleText() strip makes autoBoxSize measure what draw.io draws: <br> is a
  line, other inline tags are invisible.

Graphviz (HTML-like table labels), D2 (grid containers + markdown-in-shape)
and TeX (box+glue) converged on exactly this design: nested boxes for block
structure, proportional glue, a small inline set for text — never full HTML.

Prompts teach the composition with a comparison-card recipe; verified by
rebuilding the CoT poster end to end in the real editor.

e78322ca52 feat(diagram-engine): design tokens + role/group composition, engine-wide theming
Paper-summary posters previously required hand-written XML: every engine
box rendered identically (white, 11px), so anything whose meaning lives
in visual hierarchy came out flat. This makes presentation a first-class,
generalised part of the declaration - not a poster feature.

Structure/presentation separation, the same split HTML and CSS settled on:

- ROLE says what a node IS: banner, heading, body, callout, good, bad,
  metric, muted. Maps to a type scale and an emphasis (filled / tinted /
  outlined / ghost), never to a colour.
- GROUP says which semantic zone a node belongs to. Each distinct group
  name gets one hue ramp (tint / base / dark), assigned in document
  order. Promoted from a draw_graph-only field to BoxNode and GroupNode,
  round-tripped via dai_group.
- themedStyle(role, hue, kind) composes the two by rule - there is no
  per-combination table to extend, so a new diagram kind gets full
  theming by tagging nodes. The model never sees a hex value.

A heading container plus a group yields the tinted section panel with a
dark title; a grouped body box takes its zone's tint; verdict roles stay
green/red regardless of zone; the banner is the page's one dark field.

Also fixed, found while building the acceptance poster:

- autoBoxSize only counted explicit newlines, so a long single-line label
  wrapped to six lines in draw.io but got a one-line-tall box, and the
  text overflowed the cell.
- Marker stamping appended without replacing, so every render of a
  recovered style grew it by one duplicate dai_* token per key -
  unnoticed because draw.io resolves duplicates last-wins. dai_* keys
  are now replaced in place; mxGraph keys still append, because
  last-wins is load-bearing for container=1 normalisation.
- Banner/heading/metric roles stretch across their container's cross
  axis, the way a masthead spans its page.
- Prompt: a poster's banner IS its title (no set_title alongside), and
  sections get their colour by naming groups.

537 unit tests, 250-flowchart corpus still zero crossing arrows, 5 e2e
tests in a real browser. Verified visually: the Transformer-paper poster
renders with a navy masthead, three hue-coded section panels, metric,
verdict and callout boxes - all engine-computed geometry.

6b5fd613f2 feat(diagram-engine): label avoidance, paired opposite edges, semantic group colours
A git-workflow flowchart rendered with no overlaps but read poorly. Three
distinct causes, each fixed and measured:

1. Edge labels sat on boxes and on each other (4 collisions on the
   reported diagram; 280 across 250 generated flowcharts). The router
   keeps LINES off the boxes but a label renders at its edge's midpoint,
   which on a long edge is beside exactly the things the line was routed
   around. placeLabels slides each label along its own edge to a clear
   spot — longest edges first, midpoint-outward tries — written as the
   geometry's relative x, which draw.io natively supports. Corpus: 280
   label collisions -> 8.

2. A->B and B->A were routed independently, so "git add" ran straight
   while "git reset" wandered through a different corridor with a kink.
   Opposite edges that agree on axis now get two absolute parallel tracks
   in the strip where the two boxes overlap, a constant 24px apart,
   converted back to port fractions. Zero crossing regressions.

3. All boxes rendered the same white, because the render layer's
   fill/stroke support was never reachable: neither add_box's schema nor
   draw_graph's nodes exposed it. Rather than exposing raw hex (the model
   picks mismatched saturations, differently every time), nodes take a
   semantic group name and the engine maps groups to a fixed palette of
   six paired fill/strokes in order of first appearance. The model names
   the zones - remote vs local vs temp - and never touches a colour.

532 unit tests pass; the 5 diagram e2e tests pass in a real browser.

526f1e14e7 refactor(diagram-engine): apply review findings, fix vertical pool phases
Four reviewers went over the previous commit (three Claude, one Codex). Their
findings, verified independently before applying:

A REAL BUG. A vertical pool with milestone labels drew the label strip outside
the pool frame. The measure pass reserves width as padding + content + strip with
no gap between the last two; the renderer placed the strip one gap further out.
No test caught it because every vertical case omitted phases and every phases
case was horizontal — both regression cases added.

Duplicated logic, now single-sourced:
  - messageCount existed byte-identically in layout.ts and render.ts. Two copies
    that had to agree or the lifelines stop reaching the last message.
  - sequenceMetrics was called twice per sequence container, once inside the
    chrome builder and again for the message positions. Same drift hazard, in the
    file whose own comment warns about it.

Dead code, each verified unreachable rather than assumed:
  - Placed.extent: declared and documented, never written or read. Every .extent
    access belongs to RadialTree.
  - SequenceMetrics.top: computed, returned, no reader.
  - spread()'s level parameter: threaded through the recursion, never used.
  - radialReach's .slice(0, generations): widestPerLevel writes one entry per
    generation, so its length IS the depth. Confirmed over 20,000 random trees;
    removing it made RadialTree.depth dead too.
  - Two of three cycle guards in radialHierarchy: self-links are already skipped
    when the parent map is built, and that map holds one parent per node, so the
    structure is a forest and the visited-set filter cannot fire. The rootOf
    guard does fire and stays.
  - GraphOptions.layerGap/nodeGap/idPrefix: no caller, not in the tool schema.

Simplifications:
  - LayoutContext wrapped a single field; the link array now passes directly,
    which also removes the NO_CONTEXT default no call site ever took.
  - stretches() and the mirror-image check five lines below it expressed one rule
    two ways; unified, with the rationale stated once.
  - hasStencilFrame/isDirectional: one caller each, and isDirectional's name
    contradicted its body, which the guarded branch then re-discriminated anyway.
  - poolFrameStyle() took no arguments and had one caller.
  - poolCellOf clamped a value already clamped at the model boundary and
    unreachable-by-construction from the parser.
  - A comment on stampPoolDecoration described container behaviour the function
    does not implement.

Kept deliberately, with evidence:
  - The best-arrangement tracking in the crossing reducer. Two reviewers
    suspected it was dead weight. Measured: barycentre sweeping regressed below
    its own running best in 180 of 500 random graphs, so without it a third of
    flowcharts would keep a worse arrangement than one already found.
  - Vertical pools. Two reviewers recommended deleting the feature as
    undiscoverable. The bug was one line, and vertical swimlanes are a real
    convention — documented to the model instead, which is what was actually
    missing.
  - styleValue duplicating readMarker, isLeaf, findPageIndex: all genuinely
    redundant, all predating this branch. Left alone to keep the diff scoped.

525 unit tests and 11 diagram e2e tests pass.

a3814f702d feat(diagram-engine): flowcharts, swimlanes, sequence diagrams and mind maps
Extends the declarative engine past cloud architecture. The tool routing was
divided by icon library — AWS through the engine, everything else hand-written
XML — which is the wrong axis. What matters is the LAYOUT SHAPE.

Measured first: a six-step approval flow declared in its natural order comes out
as one column, because the layout only arranges what nesting tells it to and
never looked at the arrows. That forces the arrow from the decision to its second
branch to jump over the first branch.

graph.ts computes what the layout should have looked at: layer assignment by
longest path, cycle breaking so a loop is drawn without setting the order, and
barycentre sweeping to cut edge crossings. It emits ordinary container
operations, so layout, routing and round-tripping are unchanged — reaching zero
arrows-through-boxes on a 14-node pipeline and zero crossings on a bipartite
graph whose declared order forces three.

Three new container kinds, each because one layout rule cannot serve them all:

  pool     — swimlanes. Lanes are real cells and each step is parented to its
             band, so dragging a step to another role records the change.
  sequence — participants across the top, one lifeline cell per participant so
             head and line stay together on a drag. Messages bypass the router:
             a message's height IS its order.
  radial   — mind maps and org charts. Children are a flat list and the
             hierarchy comes from the links, because a branch is a box and a box
             cannot hold children.

Flowchart box shapes (diamond, stadium, parallelogram, document) so a reader can
tell a branch from a step.

Two bugs the new tests caught: the duplicate-link guard blocked a sequence
diagram from having two messages between the same pair, and the fallback message
numbering was shared across containers, pushing a second diagram's messages off
its own lifelines.

523 unit tests and 17 diagram e2e tests pass. Every kind verified round-trip
stable to a fixed point, and rendered in a real browser — draw.io keeps the
lifeline shape and the lane markers.

cd1df1eb6a feat(diagram-engine): wire up restructure_diagram + stencil catalog
Closes the loop: the model can now build and edit AWS architecture diagrams by
declaring structure, and never writes an mxCell again.

catalog.ts — 983 AWS icon and 19 group stencils as a name→style map, generated from
drawio-ai-kit's catalog (itself generated from jgraph's draw.io shape index). Styles
are verbatim, so the official category colours, connection points and aspect=fixed
come along for free and nothing is hand-assembled. An invented name is rejected with
suggestions instead of rendering as a blank square, which is what draw.io does with
an unknown resIcon today.

operations.ts — what the model actually sends: add_icon / add_container / move /
link / set_dir and so on, applied in order against the tree. Guards the things that
break a diagram quietly: duplicate ids (draw.io drops one of the two cells), edges
left pointing at a removed node, and moving a container inside itself.

index.ts — the entry point. current XML → parse → apply ops → check names → layout →
render → new XML. The tree is not stored between calls; it is re-derived from the
canvas every time, so a user's manual edits are input to the next layout rather than
state to reconcile.

Token cost, measured with Claude's tokenizer rather than estimated:
  - build a VPC diagram:  515 tok as operations vs 3180 as XML   (6.2x)
  - add one icon:          27 tok as an operation vs 3823 re-emitting (142x)
  - read current state:   216 tok as an outline vs 3180 as XML   (14.7x)

The 142x is the one that matters day to day: "add a Redis" is one operation, not a
rewrite of the whole diagram.

Routing in the system prompt sends AWS architecture through this path and leaves
flowcharts, BPMN, sequence diagrams, mind maps and Azure/GCP on display_diagram —
the layout engine's primitives (nested rows, columns, grids) do not model a sequence
diagram's lifelines or a mind map's radial spread, and pretending otherwise would
make those worse rather than better.

Also: added a NOTICE recording the MIT port and the AWS Architecture Icons terms,
and a narrow .gitignore exception so the generated catalog is tracked while the
root data/ directory (admin settings, contains secrets) stays ignored.

403 unit tests + 3 new e2e. Verified in the real app: a structural tool call renders
with real stencils and container markers; a second call adds one node and keeps
everything from the first; an invented name is refused and nothing is drawn. The 13
existing diagram e2e tests still pass.
