```

## Draw.io File Format

Draw.io files are XML-based with the `.drawio` extension (or `.xml`). The basic structure is:

```xml
<mxfile host="app.diagrams.net" modified="[timestamp]" agent="Claude" version="24.7.17">
  <diagram id="[unique-id]" name="Page-1">
    <mxGraphModel dx="1434" dy="759" grid="1" gridSize="10" guides="1" tooltips="1" connect="1" arrows="1" fold="1" page="1" pageScale="1" pageWidth="850" pageHeight="1100" math="0" shadow="0">
      <root>
        <mxCell id="0"/>
        <mxCell id="1" parent="0"/>
        
        <!-- Shapes and connectors go here -->
        
      </root>
    </mxGraphModel>
  </diagram>
</mxfile>
```

## Core Concepts

### 1. Cells (mxCell)
Everything in draw.io is a cell - shapes, connectors, containers, and even the root elements.

**Basic Shape Cell:**
```xml
<mxCell id="2" value="Process Step" style="rounded=1;whiteSpace=wrap;html=1;fillColor=#dae8fc;strokeColor=#6c8ebf;" vertex="1" parent="1">
  <mxGeometry x="100" y="100" width="120" height="60" as="geometry"/>
</mxCell>
```

**Connector Cell:**
```xml
<mxCell id="3" style="edgeStyle=orthogonalEdgeStyle;rounded=0;orthogonalLoop=1;jettySize=auto;html=1;exitX=1;exitY=0.5;exitDx=0;exitDy=0;entryX=0;entryY=0.5;entryDx=0;entryDy=0;" edge="1" parent="1" source="2" target="4">
  <mxGeometry relative="1" as="geometry"/>
</mxCell>
```

### 2. ID Management
- Each cell must have a unique ID
- Use sequential integers: "2", "3", "4", etc.
- IDs "0" and "1" are reserved for the root cells
- When referencing shapes in connectors, use the same IDs

### 3. Geometry (mxGeometry)
- `x`, `y`: Position (top-left corner)
- `width`, `height`: Dimensions
- `relative="1"`: For connectors (relative positioning)

### 4. Styling
Styles are semicolon-separated key-value pairs:
- **Shape type**: `rounded=1`, `ellipse`, `rhombus`
- **Colors**: `fillColor=#dae8fc`, `strokeColor=#6c8ebf`, `fontColor=#000000`
- **Text**: `fontSize=12`, `fontStyle=1` (bold=1, italic=2, underline=4)
- **Alignment**: `align=center`, `verticalAlign=middle`
- **Spacing**: `spacingLeft=10`, `spacingTop=5`

## PMP/PMBOK Specific Shapes & Styles

### Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)
WBS uses hierarchical tree structure with boxes connected by lines.

**WBS Package Box:**
```
shape=rectangle;rounded=1;whiteSpace=wrap;html=1;fillColor=#d5e8d4;strokeColor=#82b366;fontStyle=1;fontSize=10;
```

**WBS Levels:**
- Level 0 (Project): Large box, 200x80, bold, dark green
- Level 1 (Deliverables): Medium box, 160x60, medium green
- Level 2 (Sub-deliverables): Small box, 140x50, light green
- Level 3 (Work Packages): Smallest box, 120x40, lightest green

### Project Network Diagram (PERT/CPM)

**Activity Node (AON - Activity on Node):**
```
shape=rectangle;whiteSpace=wrap;html=1;fillColor=#fff2cc;strokeColor=#d6b656;fontStyle=0;

**Node Structure** (divided into sections):
```
┌─────────────────┐
│  Early Start ES │ Duration
├─────────────────┤
│  Activity Name  │
├─────────────────┤

```
5x5 grid with:
- X-axis: Impact (Very Low, Low, Medium, High, Very High)
- Y-axis: Probability (Very Low, Low, Medium, High, Very High)
```

**Risk Level Colors:**
- **Low Risk**: `fillColor=#d5e8d4;strokeColor=#82b366;` (Green)
- **Medium Risk**: `fillColor=#fff2cc;strokeColor=#d6b656;` (Yellow)
- **High Risk**: `fillColor=#ffe6cc;strokeColor=#d79b00;` (Orange)
- **Critical Risk**: `fillColor=#f8cecc;strokeColor=#b85450;` (Red)

### Stakeholder Power-Interest Grid

**Quadrant Structure:**
```
┌─────────────────┬─────────────────┐
│   Manage        │    Partner      │
│   Closely       │    Closely      │
│ (High Power,    │ (High Power,    │
│  High Interest) │  High Interest) │
├─────────────────┼─────────────────┤
│   Keep          │    Keep         │
│   Satisfied     │    Informed     │
│ (High Power,    │ (Low Power,     │
│  Low Interest)  │  High Interest) │
└─────────────────┴─────────────────┘
```

## Best Practices

### 1. Layout Guidelines
- **Grid alignment**: Use x/y coordinates in multiples of 10 for clean alignment
- **Standard spacing**: 20-30px between shapes, 40-50px between rows
- **Shape sizes**: 
  - Small: 80x40
  - Medium: 120x60
  - Large: 160x80
  - Extra Large (Project boxes): 200x80
- **Swimlane heights**: 120-150px for single row, add 100px per additional row
- **WBS spacing**: 40px vertical, 20px horizontal between levels

### 2. Naming Conventions
- Use sequential IDs: "2", "3", "4"...
- Keep shape labels concise (1-5 words)
- Use Title Case for important labels
- Use sentence case for descriptions
- Add ID numbers to WBS packages (e.g., "1.2.3 Task Name")

### 3. Visual Hierarchy
- **Start shapes**: Use green/light colors
- **End shapes**: Use red/dark colors
- **Decision points**: Use orange/yellow
- **Regular processes**: Use blue/neutral
- **Important processes**: Use bolder colors or thicker borders
- **Critical path**: Use red with thick borders (strokeWidth=3)

### 4. PMP/PMBOK Specific
- **WBS Levels**: Use progressively lighter shades for deeper levels
- **RACI Matrix**: Consistently use R=Green, A=Blue, C=Yellow, I=Purple
- **Risk Matrix**: Follow standard risk color coding (Green to Red)
- **Critical Path**: Always highlight in red with strokeWidth=3
- **Milestones**: Use diamond shapes with distinct colors

### 5. Readability
- Keep diagrams under 20-25 shapes when possible
- Group related processes in the same swimlane
- Use consistent shape sizes within the same category
- Label all connectors for complex flows
- Add whitespace between dense sections
- Include legends for symbols/colors in complex diagrams

**Key Features**: Numbered packages (1.1, 1.2, etc.), deliverable-oriented

### Template 3: Project Network Diagram (PERT/CPM)
**Use Case**: Activity sequencing and critical path analysis
**Structure**: Activity nodes with duration, early/late start/finish
**Key Features**: Critical path highlighted, float calculations

### Template 4: RACI Matrix
**Use Case**: Role and responsibility assignment
**Structure**: Grid with tasks (rows) and roles (columns)
**Key Features**: R, A, C, I assignments with color coding

### Template 5: Risk Register Heat Map
**Use Case**: Visual risk assessment
**Structure**: 5x5 grid (Probability vs Impact)
**Key Features**: Color-coded zones, risk items plotted on grid

### Template 6: Stakeholder Power-Interest Grid
**Use Case**: Stakeholder analysis and engagement strategy
**Structure**: 2x2 or 3x3 grid
**Key Features**: Quadrant labels, stakeholder names plotted

### Template 7: Organizational Breakdown Structure (OBS)
**Use Case**: Project team hierarchy
**Structure**: Hierarchical tree similar to org chart
**Key Features**: Names, roles, reporting relationships

### Template 8: Resource Histogram
**Use Case**: Resource allocation over time
**Structure**: Bar chart with time on X-axis, resources on Y-axis
**Key Features**: Color-coded resource types, over-allocation indicators

## Error Prevention

### Common Issues
1. **Overlapping shapes**: Ensure x/y coordinates don't overlap
2. **Missing parents**: Swimlane children must reference parent ID
3. **Invalid IDs**: Don't reuse IDs, keep them sequential
4. **Malformed style strings**: Always end with semicolon
5. **Incorrect connector references**: `source` and `target` must match existing shape IDs
6. **WBS numbering**: Ensure hierarchical numbering is consistent (1.0, 1.1, 1.1.1)

### Validation Checklist
- [ ] All IDs are unique
- [ ] Root cells (0, 1) exist
- [ ] All connectors have valid source/target
- [ ] Swimlane children have correct parent references
- [ ] Coordinates are positive numbers
- [ ] Style strings are properly formatted
- [ ] XML is well-formed (properly nested tags)
- [ ] WBS packages have proper hierarchical numbering
- [ ] RACI matrix has all cells filled (no blanks)
- [ ] Risk matrix uses standard color coding

## Custom Library Integration

When creating diagrams that benefit from specific icon libraries, include instructions like:

```markdown
## How to Open with Custom Libraries

To access additional icons and shapes for this diagram, open it with:

https://app.diagrams.net/?clibs=Uhttps://jgraph.github.io/drawio-libs/libs/templates.xml;Uhttps://jgraph.github.io/drawio-libs/libs/un-ocha-icons.xml

Or manually in draw.io:
1. Open the diagram in app.diagrams.net
2. File → Open Library from → URL
3. Enter: https://jgraph.github.io/drawio-libs/libs/[library-name].xml
```

## Output Format

Always output the complete `.drawio` file with:
1. Proper XML declaration (optional but recommended)
2. Complete mxfile structure
3. All necessary root cells
4. Properly formatted and indented for readability
5. Save with `.drawio` or `.xml` extension
6. Include usage instructions if custom libraries are beneficial

## Tips for Excellence

1. **Ask clarifying questions** if the process/project isn't clear
2. **Suggest improvements** to workflows if you spot issues
3. **Use appropriate shapes** for different process types and PM artifacts
4. **Maintain consistency** in sizing, spacing, and color schemes
5. **Consider the audience** - executives need less detail than implementers
6. **Test the flow logic** - ensure all paths lead somewhere
7. **Add legends** if using multiple shape types or colors
8. **Include PMBOK process group** identifiers when relevant
9. **Reference custom libraries** that would enhance the diagram
10. **Provide opening instructions** if special libraries are needed

## Professional Templates Library

The following template patterns can be adapted for various use cases:

1. **Agile/Scrum Diagrams**: Sprint planning, retrospectives, burndown charts
2. **DevOps Pipelines**: CI/CD flows with stages, gates, and tools
3. **Business Model Canvas**: 9-box strategic planning tool
4. **Value Stream Mapping**: Lean process analysis with cycle times
5. **SIPOC Diagrams**: Supplier-Input-Process-Output-Customer
6. **Fishbone/Ishikawa**: Root cause analysis
7. **Affinity Diagrams**: Idea clustering and organization
8. **Decision Trees**: Multi-level decision analysis
9. **Use Case Diagrams**: UML user-system interactions
10. **Data Flow Diagrams**: Information flow analysis
