wiki-vitepress
Transform generated wiki Markdown files into a polished VitePress static site with dark theme and interactive Mermaid diagrams. Use when user asks to "build a site" or "package as VitePress", user runs the /deep-wiki, or user wants a browsable HTML output from generated wiki pages.
Best use case
wiki-vitepress is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
Transform generated wiki Markdown files into a polished VitePress static site with dark theme and interactive Mermaid diagrams. Use when user asks to "build a site" or "package as VitePress", user runs the /deep-wiki, or user wants a browsable HTML output from generated wiki pages.

# Wiki VitePress Packager
Transform generated wiki Markdown files into a polished VitePress static site with dark theme and interactive Mermaid diagrams.
## When to Use
- User asks to "build a site" or "package as VitePress"
- User runs the `/deep-wiki:build` command
- User wants a browsable HTML output from generated wiki pages
## VitePress Scaffolding
Generate the following structure in a `wiki-site/` directory:
```
wiki-site/
├── .vitepress/
│ ├── config.mts
│ └── theme/
│ ├── index.ts
│ └── custom.css
├── public/
├── [generated .md pages]
├── package.json
└── index.md
```
## Config Requirements (`config.mts`)
- Use `withMermaid` wrapper from `vitepress-plugin-mermaid`
- Set `appearance: 'dark'` for dark-only theme
- Configure `themeConfig.nav` and `themeConfig.sidebar` from the catalogue structure
- Mermaid config must set dark theme variables:
```typescript
mermaid: {
theme: 'dark',
themeVariables: {
primaryColor: '#1e3a5f',
primaryTextColor: '#e0e0e0',
primaryBorderColor: '#4a9eed',
lineColor: '#4a9eed',
secondaryColor: '#2d4a3e',
tertiaryColor: '#2d2d3d',
background: '#1a1a2e',
mainBkg: '#1e3a5f',
nodeBorder: '#4a9eed',
clusterBkg: '#16213e',
titleColor: '#e0e0e0',
edgeLabelBackground: '#1a1a2e'
}
}
```
## Dark-Mode Mermaid: Three-Layer Fix
### Layer 1: Theme Variables (in config.mts)
Set via `mermaid.themeVariables` as shown above.
### Layer 2: CSS Overrides (`custom.css`)
Target Mermaid SVG elements with `!important`:
```css
.mermaid .node rect,
.mermaid .node circle,
.mermaid .node polygon { fill: #1e3a5f !important; stroke: #4a9eed !important; }
.mermaid .edgeLabel { background-color: #1a1a2e !important; color: #e0e0e0 !important; }
.mermaid text { fill: #e0e0e0 !important; }
.mermaid .label { color: #e0e0e0 !important; }
```
### Layer 3: Inline Style Replacement (`theme/index.ts`)
Mermaid inline `style` attributes override everything. Use `onMounted` + polling to replace them:
```typescript
import { onMounted } from 'vue'
// In setup()
onMounted(() => {
let attempts = 0
const fix = setInterval(() => {
document.querySelectorAll('.mermaid svg [style]').forEach(el => {
const s = (el as HTMLElement).style
if (s.fill && !s.fill.includes('#1e3a5f')) s.fill = '#1e3a5f'
if (s.stroke && !s.stroke.includes('#4a9eed')) s.stroke = '#4a9eed'
if (s.color) s.color = '#e0e0e0'
})
if (++attempts >= 20) clearInterval(fix)
}, 500)
})
```
Use `setup()` with `onMounted`, NOT `enhanceApp()` — DOM doesn't exist during SSR.
## Click-to-Zoom for Mermaid Diagrams
Wrap each `.mermaid` container in a clickable wrapper that opens a fullscreen modal:
```typescript
document.querySelectorAll('.mermaid').forEach(el => {
el.style.cursor = 'zoom-in'
el.addEventListener('click', () => {
const modal = document.createElement('div')
modal.className = 'mermaid-zoom-modal'
modal.innerHTML = el.outerHTML
modal.addEventListener('click', () => modal.remove())
document.body.appendChild(modal)
})
})
```
Modal CSS:
```css
.mermaid-zoom-modal {
position: fixed; inset: 0;
background: rgba(0,0,0,0.9);
display: flex; align-items: center; justify-content: center;
z-index: 9999; cursor: zoom-out;
}
.mermaid-zoom-modal .mermaid { transform: scale(1.5); }
```
## Post-Processing Rules
Before VitePress build, scan all `.md` files and fix:
- Replace `<br/>` with `<br>` (Vue template compiler compatibility)
- Wrap bare `<T>` generic parameters in backticks outside code fences
- Ensure every page has YAML frontmatter with `title` and `description`
## Build
```bash
cd wiki-site && npm install && npm run docs:build
```
Output goes to `wiki-site/.vitepress/dist/`.
## Known Gotchas
- Mermaid renders async — SVGs don't exist when `onMounted` fires. Must poll.
- `isCustomElement` compiler option for bare `<T>` causes worse crashes — do NOT use it
- Node text in Mermaid uses inline `style` with highest specificity — CSS alone won't fix it
- `enhanceApp()` runs during SSR where `document` doesn't exist — use `setup()` only
## When to Use
This skill is applicable to execute the workflow or actions described in the overview.
## Limitations
- Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
- Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
- Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.Related Skills
