feat(core): add Mermaid diagram primitive

Add a component to @open-slide/core that renders Mermaid diagram definitions as SVG inside slides, with lazy loading and
click-to-expand lightbox.

Changes

New component —

  • Accepts chart (Mermaid definition string), optional config, className, style, fallback, and lightbox props
  • Lazy-loads the mermaid library on first use; renders client-side with startOnLoad: false
  • Normalizes rendered SVG (injects viewBox, forces 100% dimensions with preserveAspectRatio) to scale cleanly in the fixed-canvas
    layout
  • Default error fallback shown when chart syntax is invalid; customizable via fallback prop
  • Re-renders when chart prop changes (stale renders discarded)

Lightbox (default: on)

  • Click any diagram to expand it near-fullscreen in a portal overlay
  • Portals into document.fullscreenElement so it works correctly in present mode
  • Dismiss via click or Escape; 180 ms fade-in animation

Export readiness

  • Wrapper emits data-waitfor="svg" and rendered SVGs carry data-mermaid-svg — the PDF/image capture pipeline waits for the async SVG
    before snapshotting

Agent skill updates

  • slide-authoring and create-slide skills updated with Mermaid layout guidance
  • New references/mermaid.md covers scaling behavior, lightbox as framework feature, and split-page heuristics
  • New apply-comments skill added

Tests & demo

  • E2E test (mermaid.spec.ts) validates render, re-render, fallback, SVG normalization, and present-mode behavior
  • apps/demo/slides/mermaid-showcase/ provides a multi-page demonstration (flowchart, sequence, architecture diagrams)

New dependency

  • mermaid added to @open-slide/core dependencies

What was tested

  • E2E spec covers rendering, re-rendering, error fallback, SVG attribute normalization, and present-mode
  • Demo slide exercised visually in pnpm dev

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added a Mermaid diagram component supporting flowcharts, sequence, state, and architecture diagrams.

Walkthrough

Adds an exported <Mermaid> component with asynchronous rendering, fallbacks, SVG normalization, and optional lightbox expansion. Adds showcase slides, authoring guidance, documentation, dependency wiring, fixture coverage, and end-to-end tests.

Layer / File(s) Summary
Mermaid runtime and public API
packages/core/src/app/components/mermaid.tsx, packages/core/src/index.ts, packages/core/package.json, packages/core/README.md, .changeset/*
Adds the Mermaid component, public exports, runtime dependency, usage documentation, and minor-release changesets.
Showcase slide integration

Adds five slides for flowchart, sequence, state, and architecture diagrams. The architecture slide enables lightbox expansion.
Fixture and rendering validation
packages/core/e2e/fixture/slides/steps/index.tsx, packages/core/e2e/tests/mermaid.spec.ts, packages/core/src/app/lib/print-ready.test.ts
Adds Mermaid fixture content and tests for rendering, fallback output, source updates, SVG attributes, screenshots, play mode, and asynchronous readiness.
Mermaid authoring guidance
packages/core/skills/*, packages/core/skills/slide-authoring/references/mermaid.md
Adds Mermaid selection, semantic fidelity, layout, scaling, lightbox, API, and self-review guidance.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to bcc22

The new Mermaid component adds client-side diagram rendering and a third-party runtime dependency to the core package, but the current code still has a TypeScript compile error in lightbox initialization that can block builds and leave lightbox behavior incorrectly configured. Merge should wait for that fix, with owner awareness that core consumers inherit Mermaid’s dependency surface.

A rabbit maps a chart in flight,
Flow and state align just right.
Click the diagram; it opens wide.
Errors show a fallback side.
Mermaid guides each slide with light.

85-106: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

An inline config object causes a render loop.

The effect depends on the config object identity. The effect calls setDiagram(null) and later setDiagram(...), so each run re-renders the consumer. If a caller writes config={{ theme: 'dark' }} inline, every render creates a new object, the effect runs again, and the loop does not stop.

The current callers use module-level constants, so this is not triggered today. Depend on a serialized form of the config, or document that config must be referentially stable.

permanently tied to the first config: cache only the imported module, then apply
each caller’s config through mermaid.initialize before rendering or otherwise
pass it to the render operation. Preserve startOnLoad and the strict default

- Stabilize config reference via useRef + JSON key comparison to prevent

Addressed all CodeRabbit review findings in f4c21aa:

Actionable fixes:

  • loadMermaid no longer caches config on first load — mermaid.initialize() is called before each render, so diagrams with different configs render correctly.
  • Inline config objects no longer trigger render loops (stabilized via useRef + JSON key comparison).
  • Sequence diagram in showcase uses width: '100%' instead of fixed 760px.
  • Flowchart node label <Mermaid> properly quoted with HTML entities.
  • Full-bleed example in mermaid.md adds position: 'relative' to the wrapper.

Nitpick fixes:

  • README documents lightbox default behavior and how to disable.
  • mermaid.md lightbox section clarifies it's enabled by default with opt-out via lightbox={false}.
  • print-ready.test.ts already had afterEach(() => vi.unstubAllGlobals()) — no change needed.

Skipped N3 (lightbox e2e test) — will add in a follow-up if needed.

193-203: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Discard stale lightbox render results.

When chart or config changes while the lightbox is open, an older mermaid.render call can resolve last. Line 199 then replaces the current diagram with obsolete SVG. Add the same active-render guard that the main component uses.

Proposed fix
   useEffect(() => {
+    let active = true;
+
     loadMermaid()
       .then((mermaid) => mermaid.render(nextRenderId(), chart, containerRef.current ?? undefined))
       .then(({ svg, bindFunctions }) => {
-        if (!containerRef.current) return;
+        if (!active || !containerRef.current) return;
         const el = normalizeSvg(svg);
         containerRef.current.replaceChildren(el);
         bindFunctions?.(containerRef.current);
       })
       .catch(() => {});
+
+    return () => {
+      active = false;
+    };
   }, [chart, config]);

Fix the lightbox render lifecycle.

  • Call loadMermaid() without an argument, initialize Mermaid with config, then call render. The current call produces TS2554 and fails core typecheck.
  • Add an effect-local cancellation flag or render-version guard before replaceChildren. React StrictMode can start overlapping lightbox renders, allowing an older SVG to replace a newer one.
