## Install

```sh
paseo plugin add npm:paseo-plugin-pele@0.1.0
```

Paseo 0.8 GitHub fallback:

```sh
paseo plugin add sojuhub/paseo-plugin-pele --ref 6c613ea7c6e4254a4e52c5b2a86a2c780ca90ba5
```

## Caveats

- Requires Paseo 0.11.4 or later and its web client; native mobile rendering is not enabled.
- Pele has its own Mermaid syntax coverage and layout; it is not pixel-identical to Mermaid.
- Mixed Gen-UI and diagram blocks may be claimed by another timeline transformer; use separate messages.
- Surrounding Markdown uses a limited renderer; built-in file previews and all tool-output widgets are not replaced.

### Installation notes

```sh
paseo plugin add git:sojuhub/paseo-plugin-pele
```

Requires npm on the daemon host. Installation uses the committed dependency lock
and disables dependency lifecycle scripts.

For local development:

```sh
git clone https://github.com/sojuhub/paseo-plugin-pele.git
cd paseo-plugin-pele
npm ci --ignore-scripts
bun run check
paseo plugin install "$PWD"
```

Enable plugins in Paseo's settings first. After source changes use
`paseo plugin reload pele`; no daemon restart is necessary.

Tested with Paseo 0.11.4 on Mac's web client. The desktop app uses the web
rendering path. Native iOS/Android chat is left to Paseo's original renderer.

### Source README

#### Pele for Paseo

Renders `mermaid` and `pele` fenced blocks directly inside Paseo chat as live SVG.
It uses Pele 1.7.0 locally in the client, without generating PNGs or calling a
rendering service. Existing chat history uses the renderer too.

##### Install

```sh
paseo plugin add git:sojuhub/paseo-plugin-pele
```

Requires npm on the daemon host. Installation uses the committed dependency lock
and disables dependency lifecycle scripts.

For local development:

```sh
git clone https://github.com/sojuhub/paseo-plugin-pele.git
cd paseo-plugin-pele
npm ci --ignore-scripts
bun run check
paseo plugin install "$PWD"
```

Enable plugins in Paseo's settings first. After source changes use
`paseo plugin reload pele`; no daemon restart is necessary.

Tested with Paseo 0.11.4 on Mac's web client. The desktop app uses the web
rendering path. Native iOS/Android chat is left to Paseo's original renderer.

##### Use

Ask an agent to produce a Mermaid diagram, or send one yourself:

````md
```mermaid
flowchart LR
 A[Order received] --> B[Delivered]
```
````

The diagram toolbar matches Paseo 0.11.4's built-in Mermaid controls: icon-only
**Zoom in**, **Zoom out**, **Reset view**, **View source** and **Fullscreen**,
in that order at the top right. Desktop controls appear on hover or keyboard
focus; compact/touch controls stay reachable. The same Lucide icons use 20 px
buttons / 14 px glyphs on desktop and 32 px / 18 px on compact layouts.
Tooltips and accessible names are English; button text and the percentage row
are removed. Source view provides **View diagram** and an icon for **Copy code**.

Fullscreen fills the browser viewport and has zoom/reset/close icons. Escape
closes it. Inline Ctrl/Command-wheel zoom, fullscreen wheel zoom, drag and
keyboard controls remain available; double-click restores the fitted view.
The source remains Pele SVG, so diagram layout and gesture implementation are
not a byte-for-byte copy of Mermaid. Multiple diagrams and surrounding Markdown
are retained, and incomplete streaming input remains recoverable.

The **Pele** sidebar is a paste-and-preview editor. `/pele path/to/file.md`
opens it with the current workspace and path; press **Load**. The workspace
panel and Command Center also expose Pele. Files are read-only, limited to
200 KB and `.md`, `.markdown`, `.mmd`, `.mermaid` paths inside that workspace.
See [example.md](example.md).

##### Compatibility and boundaries

- Pele supports the diagram families listed in its
  [compatibility guide](https://pele.run/compatibility), with its own layout and
  syntax differences. It is not a pixel-identical Mermaid engine.
- Paseo 0.11.4 applies the **first matching timeline transformer** to a whole
  message. In the current setup, a response mixing Gen-UI `ui`/`app` blocks and
  diagrams is claimed by Gen-UI; its diagram text is not rendered by Pele.
  Separate those into different messages. Neither plugin is disabled or modified.
- The plugin cannot replace Paseo's built-in Markdown file preview or every
  tool-output widget. Use its file panel for Pele preview.
- Surrounding prose uses a small Markdown renderer. It preserves text, tables,
  lists, safe web/mail links and ordinary code; host-specific file-link actions,
  image previews and advanced Markdown extensions are not replicated.
- The browser-only component is intentionally guarded by `Platform.OS === "web"`.
  It uses a DOM container because SDK 0.11.4 has no arbitrary SVG component.
  Native mobile clients do not run its chat transformers.
- Diagram image loading and clickable links are disabled. Labels are escaped by
  Pele; source length, output length and edge counts are bounded. File access
  resolves symlinks and rejects paths outside the workspace. No credentials,
  transcript collection, persistence or background jobs are added.

##### Verification

`bun run check` runs TypeScript plus parser, Markdown, file-boundary and actual
Pele rendering tests. The 33 diagram-family fixtures are smoke tests, not an
exhaustive guarantee for every Mermaid construct.

Actual local Paseo browser checks covered two inline assistant diagrams, user
diagrams, zoom/pan/fit, expanded view, source view/copy, invalid-input recovery,
light/dark themes, 390 px layout, slash command and a workspace Markdown file
containing prose, a table and two diagrams.

Real native-mobile rendering, every Mermaid syntax variant, every other
timeline-transforming plugin combination and packaged Electron UI were not
separately tested.
