A new plugin called Merman has been developed for Claude Code, allowing it to render Mermaid diagrams directly within the terminal. This tool addresses the challenge of iterating on visual designs when using Claude Code, as it displays diagrams in real-time as they are generated or modified. Merman supports various diagram types, including flowcharts, sequence diagrams, and state machines, as well as charts and tables, aiming for speed and minimal token usage. AI
