# Archify JSON IR Schemas
|
||||
|
||||
Each typed renderer consumes a JSON intermediate representation (IR) validated
|
||||
against one of the schemas in this folder before any layout work happens.
|
||||
|
||||
## Files
|
||||
|
||||
| Schema | Governs | Structural arrays |
|
||||
|--------|---------|-------------------|
|
||||
| `workflow.schema.json` | `diagram_type: "workflow"` | `lanes`, `phases`, `groups`, `mainPath`, `nodes`, `edges` |
|
||||
| `sequence.schema.json` | `diagram_type: "sequence"` | `participants`, `segments`, `messages`, `activations` |
|
||||
| `dataflow.schema.json` | `diagram_type: "dataflow"` | `stages`, `nodes`, `flows` |
|
||||
| `lifecycle.schema.json` | `diagram_type: "lifecycle"` | `lanes`, `states`, `transitions` |
|
||||
| `architecture.schema.json` | `diagram_type: "architecture"` | `components`, `boundaries`, `connections` |
|
||||
| `common.schema.json` | shared `$defs` only (no top-level document) | — |
|
||||
|
||||
Every diagram schema requires `schema_version`, `diagram_type`, `meta` (with
|
||||
`title`), and its structural arrays — except `segments`, `activations`, and
|
||||
`cards`, which are optional — and sets `additionalProperties: false` at every
|
||||
level, so unknown fields are rejected rather than silently ignored.
|
||||
|
||||
Every `meta` object also accepts `animation: "trace"` for opt-in SVG/CSS motion
|
||||
in generated HTML. Omit it, or set `"none"`, for the default static output.
|
||||
It also accepts `locale: "en" | "zh-CN"`. The field selects the fixed Viewer
|
||||
UI, renderer-owned default legend and accessibility copy, document-title
|
||||
suffix, and `<html lang>` value; it does not translate authored strings.
|
||||
Omitting it preserves legacy behavior and resolves to English. Unsupported
|
||||
locale values fail schema validation instead of being guessed or silently
|
||||
rewritten.
|
||||
`visual_preset` accepts `classic` (the stable default), `signal-flow` (luminous
|
||||
motion-forward presentation), `blueprint` (high-contrast engineering review),
|
||||
or `editorial` (warm publication-style design review and documentation).
|
||||
Presets change only viewer styling; they do not alter semantic IDs or geometry.
|
||||
Sequence `meta` additionally accepts `column_fit`. The default `fixed` keeps
|
||||
the historical 108px column gap and 86px participant boxes, so an authored
|
||||
diagram renders at the same coordinates no matter how wide its viewBox is.
|
||||
`spread` derives the gap and box width from the viewBox instead, which turns a
|
||||
wide canvas into column distance and label room rather than empty space on the
|
||||
right. Lane order, IDs, and message semantics are unchanged either way.
|
||||
|
||||
It may also include up to five guided `views`. Each view has a unique `id`, a
|
||||
reader-facing `label`, a non-empty `focus` list of existing semantic node IDs,
|
||||
and an optional short `note`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Legend presentation contract
|
||||
|
||||
Every `meta` object accepts the same optional legend shape without changing
|
||||
the schema version already selected for that renderer:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
"legend": {
|
||||
"mode": "auto",
|
||||
"entries": {
|
||||
"security": { "label": "restricted data", "visible": true }
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`mode` is `auto` (the default), `all`, or `hidden`. `auto` includes only kinds
|
||||
present in typed IR; `all` includes the renderer's full stable catalog;
|
||||
`hidden` removes the complete legend and takes precedence over entry overrides.
|
||||
Architecture documents that omit an explicit `viewBox` size that automatic
|
||||
viewBox from the same measured resolved legend footprint used for final SVG
|
||||
layout. Across all renderers, legacy documents that omit `meta.legend` use a
|
||||
compatibility-safe implicit `auto`: if the resolved legend cannot fit an
|
||||
explicit authored viewBox without overlap, Archify omits the complete legend
|
||||
instead of turning a previously valid schema-v1 document into a hard failure.
|
||||
Once an author adds `meta.legend` (including explicit `mode: "auto"`), the
|
||||
layout is intentional and unfit labels or bands fail with a path-prefixed
|
||||
diagnostic. An entry may set a non-empty, bounded `label`, boolean `visible`,
|
||||
or both.
|
||||
`visible: false` removes a resolved entry and `visible: true` forces a supported
|
||||
but unused kind into the visual legend. Unknown kinds and properties fail
|
||||
strict validation.
|
||||
|
||||
Supported keys are renderer-owned:
|
||||
|
||||
| Renderer | `meta.legend.entries` keys |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| Architecture | `frontend`, `backend`, `database`, `cloud`, `security`, `messagebus`, `external` |
|
||||
| Workflow | `frontend`, `backend`, `security`, `messagebus`, `database`, `cloud`, `external` |
|
||||
| Sequence | `emphasis`, `return`, `security`, `dashed`, `default` |
|
||||
| Dataflow | `emphasis`, `security`, `dashed`, `database`, `default` |
|
||||
| Lifecycle | `start`, `active`, `waiting`, `decision`, `success`, `failure`, `neutral`, `external` |
|
||||
|
||||
Labels are presentation only: they do not rename the stable kind, change
|
||||
nodes/relationships, or create Semantic Lens edge facts. Sequence message and
|
||||
Dataflow flow-variant entries are visual keys. Component/state entries backed
|
||||
by exact compiled node facts receive the interactive Semantic Legend bridge;
|
||||
this includes Dataflow `database` when a real `nodes[].type: "database"` fact
|
||||
exists.
|
||||
|
||||
Every relationship collection (`connections`, `edges`, `messages`, `flows`, and
|
||||
`transitions`) accepts an optional author-controlled `id` using the shared ID
|
||||
pattern. The renderer keeps its source-order runtime key separately, while the
|
||||
authored ID enables a stable `#relation=<id>` viewer link that survives array
|
||||
reordering. ID-less documents remain valid and their relationship pins stay
|
||||
local to the current page.
|
||||
|
||||
Every semantic node collection (`components`, `nodes`, `participants`, and
|
||||
`states`) also accepts one optional `brand`: either a canonical string returned
|
||||
by `archify brands --json`, or a digest-pinned `{ "url", "sha256" }` object
|
||||
returned by `archify brands capture <url> --json`. Known IDs and known-brand
|
||||
domains use the bundled vector catalogue. Unknown URLs must be captured in that
|
||||
explicit command before authoring; render and validate never perform an
|
||||
unpinned network capture. Unsafe, unavailable, changed, or unsupported content
|
||||
fails closed with a brand diagnostic. Omitted `brand` preserves the prior
|
||||
output.
|
||||
|
||||
## schema_version policy
|
||||
|
||||
Workflow supports schema versions 1 and 2. Version 1 remains the fixed-layout
|
||||
compatibility contract; version 2 opts into the readable workflow compiler and
|
||||
can be produced explicitly with `archify migrate workflow ... --to-schema 2`.
|
||||
The other four diagram schemas keep `schema_version` pinned to `1`.
|
||||
|
||||
Workflow also accepts optional `semanticChecks`. `allowedRoots` and
|
||||
`allowedTerminals` close the set of intentional graph sources and sinks;
|
||||
`requiredEdges` requires exact authored relationships; and `requiredPaths`
|
||||
requires directed reachability while allowing intermediate nodes. The compiler
|
||||
evaluates these facts before layout and returns typed `workflow/*` diagnostics.
|
||||
The field is additive and geometry-neutral: omitting it preserves existing
|
||||
workflow behavior and including a satisfied contract does not change SVG or
|
||||
layout-receipt bytes.
|
||||
|
||||
A file that validates today must keep validating and rendering within its
|
||||
declared version throughout the 2.x release line. Additive viewer,
|
||||
accessibility, and presentation improvements may enhance generated HTML, but
|
||||
they must not reinterpret authored IR or turn a previously valid profile-less
|
||||
v1 file into a new hard layout failure. Breaking IR changes require a new
|
||||
version; additive, backwards-compatible fields do not.
|
||||
|
||||
## Shared definitions (common.schema.json)
|
||||
|
||||
The five diagram schemas reference `common.schema.json#/$defs/...`:
|
||||
|
||||
- `id` — element identifiers, pattern `^[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9_-]*$`
|
||||
- `point` — an `[x, y]` pair of numbers (used by `via` and `labelAt`)
|
||||
- `componentType` — `frontend`, `backend`, `database`, `cloud`, `security`,
|
||||
`messagebus`, `external`
|
||||
- `locale` — the bounded renderer locale, `en` or `zh-CN`
|
||||
- `brandMark` — one optional built-in brand ID or explicit HTTP(S) site URL
|
||||
- `variant` — `default`, `emphasis`, `security`, `dashed` (sequence messages
|
||||
extend this list locally with `return`)
|
||||
- `legendMode` and `legendEntry` — the shared strict mode and label/visibility
|
||||
override shapes used by each renderer-owned key map
|
||||
- `guidedViews` — the bounded, read-only reader paths accepted by `meta.views`
|
||||
- `cards` — the summary-card blocks rendered below the SVG
|
||||
|
||||
Lifecycle state `type` is mode-specific (`start`/`active`/`waiting`/...) and
|
||||
stays in `lifecycle.schema.json`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Runtime validation
|
||||
|
||||
At development time, `scripts/generate-validators.mjs` compiles all five
|
||||
schemas with ajv's draft 2020-12 standalone generator using `strict: true` and
|
||||
`allErrors: true`. The generated `renderers/shared/generated-validators.mjs`
|
||||
is committed and shipped with the skill, so runtime validation has no npm or
|
||||
network dependency. `renderers/shared/validator.mjs` applies the matching
|
||||
standalone validator before the renderer's own layout checks.
|
||||
The shared loader then checks cross-collection facts that JSON Schema cannot
|
||||
express cleanly here: duplicate view IDs, duplicate focus IDs, focus IDs that do
|
||||
not exist in the diagram's semantic collection, and duplicate authored
|
||||
relationship IDs within the mode's relationship collection.
|
||||
|
||||
Architecture additionally supports opt-in, revision-pinned repository evidence.
|
||||
`meta.repository` names a public GitHub URL and full commit SHA; a component may
|
||||
carry one to three `sources` with repo-relative POSIX paths, optional line
|
||||
ranges, and optional labels. Shape is schema-checked, then the renderer requires
|
||||
`--repo-root`: the local Git origin must match, and Git must prove the commit,
|
||||
blobs, and requested lines. Verified evidence is embedded outside the canonical
|
||||
SVG for the Semantic Passport and Node Finder; ordinary documents and visual
|
||||
exports carry no repository evidence.
|
||||
|
||||
## Visual quality and engineering truth
|
||||
|
||||
`meta.quality_profile` and `meta.engineering_profile` answer different
|
||||
questions. `quality_profile` is available in all five modes and controls how
|
||||
strictly Archify judges composition. `engineering_profile` is an optional
|
||||
Architecture-only semantic contract; omitting it preserves the ordinary v1
|
||||
behavior.
|
||||
|
||||
The first engineering profile is `deployment-ownership`. Enable it only when
|
||||
the user wants a fail-closed deployment review and the source facts are known.
|
||||
It requires every non-external component to name an owner in `tag` and belong
|
||||
to exactly one `region`; the document must contain both `region` and
|
||||
`security-group` boundaries; every `database` must be inside a
|
||||
`security-group`; each security group must contain members from one shared
|
||||
region; and every connection whose region or security-group membership changes
|
||||
must name the real crossing mechanism in `label`.
|
||||
|
||||
The profile validates only authored IR. It does not discover infrastructure,
|
||||
infer owners, or prove that a diagram matches a live environment. If a fact is
|
||||
unknown, leave the profile unset or obtain the fact instead of inventing it.
|
||||
|
||||
`npm test` runs the generator in check mode and fails when the committed
|
||||
validators drift from their schemas.
|
||||
|
||||
## Error format
|
||||
|
||||
Schema violations exit non-zero. Each ajv error is reported on its own line as
|
||||
the instance path — annotated with the nearest enclosing element's `id` or
|
||||
`label` — followed by the message and parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
workflow schema validation failed:
|
||||
/nodes/3 (id/label: "router") must NOT have additional properties {"additionalProperty":"colour"}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Schemas catch shape errors (types, enums, ranges, unknown fields); geometry
|
||||
problems such as overlaps and label collisions are the renderers' job.
