Author architecture diagrams as code with the Squinch DSL. Use this whenever the user wants an architecture or system diagram — creating one from prose, editing or reviewing a .squinch file, drawing cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, Kubernetes, hybrid estates), documenting services for a README or a design review, or any picture of systems, services and the connections between them — even when they never say "squinch". Write the .squinch model, validate it with `squinch check`, render it with…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Squinch — architecture diagrams as code Squinch renders `.squinch` files into deterministic SVG diagrams. You write the *model* (systems, components, connections); the engine lays it out. When the auto-layout isn't what you want, you steer it with **relative** hints — there are no pixel coordinates anywhere in the language. ## The loop Work like a compiler user, not an artist: ```bash squinch check diagram.squinch --format json # parse + lint; machine-readable squinch render diagram.squinch -o out.svg # deterministic SVG; theme: the view's, else dark squinch render diagram.squinch --view NAME --theme light -o out.svg # themes: light | dark squinch render diagram.squinch --sync # every view × both themes, next to the source squinch render diagram.squinch -o out.html # one interactive file: every view, both themes squinch render diagram.squinch -o out.png --scale 2 # PNG, only when asked (--width also works) squinch icons search "<term>, <term>, …" # find icon ids — batch every unknown in one call squinch diff --format json # what changed in the architecture ``` …

How to install
mdr add jquatier/squinch/squinch@sha256:32ff13269d2fd7d9The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261031.887e53f, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
