[specify] Encourage diagrams in specs #35

Open

Description

Diagrams improve the clarity of feature specs. Guide the specify flow to include diagrams where they add value.

Acceptance criteria

  • Spec guidance recommends diagrams (for example Mermaid) for flows, data models, and architecture.
  • Ties into the existing diagram-design skill.

    Implementation verified, pending merge.

    Added conditional diagram guidance to the specify agent, source and distributed spec instructions, and feature template. It uses the existing diagram-design skill, keeps business specs technology-independent, and avoids mandatory diagrams or empty sections.

    Validation: npm --prefix docs run build passed with 40 pages, and git diff --check passed. Changed Markdown has no new lint diagnostics compared with HEAD.

    Branch: feature/35-spec-diagrams.
