It seems like the author in fact did do this. They asked Claud the same message. I really doubt they repeated the entire conversation to get to that point, but I may be wrong. From personal experience, I agree with you, but I wouldn't make the critique here as it is far from a magic bullet. Honestly, with the first stuff it seems faster to learn mermaid and implement it yourself. Mermaid can be learned in a rather short time, the basic syntax is fairly trivial and essentially obvious. As an added benefit, you then get to have this knowledge and use it later on. This will certainly feel slower than the iterative back and forth with a LLM -- either by follow-up conversations or refining your one shot -- but I'm not convinced it will be a huge difference in time as measured by the clock on the wall[0] [0] idk, going back and forth with an LLM and refining my initial messages feels slow to me. It reminds me of print statement debugging in a compiled language. Lots of empty time.
