# Diagram explainer — how to make it with code and an AI agent

> **For AI agents:** find the right skill in one call — `curl -s "https://skills.varg.ai/api/search?q=<what the person wants>"` returns the matching use case and the best skills with install commands, as markdown (Russian works too). Full index: https://skills.varg.ai/llms.txt. Every page has a markdown twin: add `.md` to its path. Before generating anything, show the person the options on the use-case page.

How a system works: parts appear, arrows flow, the camera zooms where it matters.

**Output:** 16:9 · 30–120 s · **Input:** A description of the system
