Yep I find them to be very useful for explaining a system.

They can do a lot of cool things! Mermaid gallery here: https://smalldocs.org/s/xZrc-lNW1kbXpoIuU3l_ky#k=-0ehGe2B-hR...

The charts are very nice, and I think the visualisation layer for LLMs is a very interesting problem.

I’ve been building https://smalldocs.org for this exact reason. It’s an office suite for AI agents - but my main use case is giving a cli based LLM the canvas to express itself - charts, mermaid diagrams, etc. I’ve extended it a bit further to be a format for all types of work so the agent can embed slides and spreadsheets in a document.

I created https://smalldocs.org to help with this. After installing you can tell your agent to "sdoc me a mermaid diagram of X flow" or "sdoc me a visual architecture of this repo" or something, and it handles it nicely (imo!).

Here is the mermaid diagram gallery: https://smalldocs.org/s/PpArByXuNBA5kGS1JVMUW6#k=uTqNRLqzz_T...

Hey, I'm building something a bit like that - please checkout https://smalldocs.org if you have time.

I posted the same thing below, but I’m open for feedback on the license. I’ve put a lot of work in and I think there is a commercial pathway forward for the product. I don’t want to let someone else - who might be more experienced re commercialisation - take everything I’ve done and build a business with it (I’d really like to do that myself), so wasn’t sure what license to use as MIT didn’t feel right to me at the moment. But open for feedback/maybe I’m being too short sighted…

Yep, it does. If you open https://smalldocs.org/s/tUWdfKLKBcnhnrYsoFMn4W#k=7SC6KGg-Fye... And scroll to the business model area, you’ll see it supports multi tab functionality + connected formulas.

Thanks, please could you email me at [email protected]. I’m trying to learn how to make this a better experience for teams, so would love to work with you guys to optimise the experience.

Multiple agents could write to the doc locally, but for the moment it’s not predominantly could based (only short links). I think I will build a cloud first version/offering/config soon

It is mostly that pattern yes, but you can see the underlying formats in https://smalldocs.org/docs

Does this link not work? https://smalldocs.org/blogs/what-is-a-smalldoc

If you’re talking about the README, you are right, but I think the homepage has a lot of examples you can click: https://smalldocs.org/#learn

Thanks very much! That is exactly my view too.

It’s also nice to get out of the command line for doing deep reading.

I have had a few developers try it, and some small number of them use it week after week (as do I): https://smalldocs.org/analytics

I went in the opposite direction and built https://smalldocs.org/, which is an office suite AI agents (and humans - including SWEs!) like to use.

I think this is a very interesting concept/question. I feel like programming is more about shapes than anything else… but they seem to have mastered that fairly easily… but I totally get your point!
