Comment on [AIT] Anyone using AI to map your network / system
curbstickle@anarchist.nexus 1 week agoYou can, I’m just saying be prepared for disappointment. The amount of effort you need to put in, imo, you could have had a spreadsheet and been done. And then used that with a script to autogenerate some mermaidml to get a purdy drawing out of it (which I highly recommend leveraging Beautiful-Mermaid.
And then you can feed that to an llm and make your queries about ports or other uses, to me thats a much better use/approach. To each their own though.

Not really seen much of mermaid diagrams before, thanks.
Btw, Looking at the issue comments, seems beautiful mermaid is unmaintained and now forked to zombie mermaid: github.com/dfadler/zombie-mermaid
May be personal preference, but d2 blows mermaid out of the water. And it is a single executable, no npm needed.

Ok, interesting… any advances after d2?
Mermaid --> d2 --> ???
Well now I’m writing my own thing :) but that will be a while. I haven’t found anything better so far.
Btw I also find the d2 lang nicer and more uniform, while mermaid is a bit more graphviz dot-like.
