Tip: typing /arialine on its own opens the same New diagram form as the global shortcut, with the current channel preselected. Choose Describe it and describe the diagram, or Paste Mermaid code and paste it.

Arialine provides four diagram/document shortcuts.

Render as diagram — message shortcut that turns an existing message into a diagram.

New diagram — global shortcut that opens a form to select a channel and describe a new diagram.

Render as canvas — message shortcut that turns Markdown content into a Slack Canvas.

Automatic .mmd, pasted Mermaid, and .md behavior is configured per channel from App Home or the corresponding /arialine commands.
