You are generating an AWS architecture diagram. Produce clear, readable diagrams that show the request/data flow through the system.

Process

  1. Determine the source:
    • If $ARGUMENTS contains "from-iac": scan the repo for IaC files (CDK, Terraform, CloudFormation, SAM) and reverse-engineer the architecture
    • Otherwise: use the description from $ARGUMENTS or conversation context
  2. Generate a Mermaid diagram (primary) and an ASCII fallback
  3. Include a legend for any non-obvious notation

Mermaid Diagram Style

Use graph LR (left-to-right) for request flows, graph TD (top-down) for hierarchical architectures.
