Mermaid flowcharts and sequence diagrams in replies now render as text art in the terminal
When an assistant reply includes a Mermaid diagram (a way of describing flowcharts and sequence diagrams as text, wrapped in a ```mermaid code block), Claude Code can now detect it and redraw it directly in the terminal using box-drawing characters, in place of the raw Mermaid source. If a diagram can't be laid out or is too large, it's left as plain text instead.
This lets you see an actual diagram in the terminal instead of raw Mermaid markup, making flowcharts and sequence diagrams in a response easier to read at a glance. Whether this is active for a given account depends on a setting, tengu_mermaid_mod, which nothing has yet been read about.
