Not every diagram comes from a .mmd source. Hand-authored SVGs live at this
directory's root and animate with SMIL only (no JS, no external fonts), so they play
inside GitHub's `` sandbox:
| File | Used in | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| tier-cascade.svg | README.md (root) | Animated 4-tier auto-fallback cascade (16s loop, 4 acts). Edit the SVG directly — there is no .mmd source. |
| pool-fair-share.svg | README.md (root) | Animated key-pool fair-share quota (generous → strict, 16s loop). Edit the SVG directly — there is no .mmd source. |
| combo-always-on.svg | style reference | Animated priority-combo fallback (4 layers, 16s loop). Edit the SVG directly — there is no .mmd source. |
| cli-terminal.svg | README.md (root) | Compact half-height animated terminal (1200×350): 3 real CLI commands cycling with typewriter + scrolling subcommand ticker; first frame = completed providers screen. Edit the SVG directly — there is no .mmd source. |
| compression-pipeline.svg | README.md (root) | Animated 10-engine compression funnel (8s loop). Edit the SVG directly — there is no .mmd source. |
| free-tier-budget.svg | README.md (root) | Animated free-tier budget card (~1.53B/mo quantified headline, 19-pool budget bar, per-model grid, signup credits, 10s loop). Edit the SVG directly — there is no .mmd source. |
| readme-hero.svg | README.md (root) | Animated hero card (tagline, live provider/free-access headline, full-width compression bar demo, 6 stat chips). Edit the SVG directly — there is no .mmd source. |
| promise-pillars.svg | README.md (root) | Animated "The Promise" 6-pillar card (12s border-highlight sweep). Edit the SVG directly — there is no .mmd source. |
| why-pain-fix.svg | README.md (root) | Animated "Why OmniRoute" 10-row pain-vs-fix ledger (15s green row sweep). Edit the SVG directly — there is no .mmd source. |
| strategies-grid.svg | README.md (root) | Animated grid illustrating 18 of the 19 routing strategies; cache-optimized remains documented in the adjacent table. Edit the SVG directly — there is no .mmd source. |
| privacy-local.svg | README.md (root) | Animated "Private & Local-First" 11-row guarantee ledger with receipt chips (16s green row sweep). Edit the SVG directly — there is no .mmd source. |
| resilience-layers.svg | README.md (root) | Animated 3-layer resilience card (breaker states CLOSED→OPEN→HALF-OPEN, key cooldown with ×2 backoff, model lockout — 18s loops). Edit the SVG directly — there is no .mmd source. |
*.mmd.npm run docs:render-diagrams (uses @mermaid-js/mermaid-cli)..mmd and .svg.If @mermaid-js/mermaid-cli is not available locally, install it once:
npm install -g @mermaid-js/mermaid-cli
The script renders every .mmd in docs/diagrams/ into docs/diagrams/exported/*.svg
with a white background, suitable for both dark and light themes.
From a doc in docs/<subfolder>/, the relative path becomes ../diagrams/...:
