Generate self-contained HTML visual explanations for systems, code changes, plans, data, and technical concepts. Use for diagrams, architecture overviews, diff or plan reviews, project recaps, comparison tables, slide decks, and other visual explanations.
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
# Visual Explainer Generate self-contained HTML pages that explain systems, code changes, plans, data, and technical concepts visually. Use this skill for diagram requests, architecture overviews, diff/plan reviews, project recaps, comparison tables, slide decks, and any visual explanation. ## Trigger and delivery rules - Prefer an HTML page over terminal ASCII when the output is inherently visual. - If a table would have 4+ rows or 3+ columns, render it as HTML and give only a short chat summary. - Write files to `~/.agent/diagrams/` or the explicit eval output path. Use descriptive filenames. - Open generated pages in the browser when running normally. In Pi package installs, use `visual_explainer` with `prepare` for planning/context and `render` only after the complete HTML document exists. - The final page must be a complete self-contained HTML document, including embedded CSS and any needed JS. ## Reference routing Read only the references needed for the current output: | Need | Read | |---|---| | Text-heavy architecture/cards | `./templates/architecture.html` | …

How to install
mdr add coco-research/coco/visual-explainer@sha256:cc07527554e0020dThe line at the top of this page pins the label v0.8.1, 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.
