By name: technical-exploded-view description: Guidelines for creating technical exploded-view diagrams. Use this skill whenever drawing hardware, internal components, or technical exploded views.
Technical Exploded-View Standards
Design Principles
- Clarity: Exploded views should clearly show internal component relationships.
- Layers: Always represent at least 5 layers in complex devices (e.g., Casing, Thermal Unit, PCB, Battery, Interface).
- Alignment: Use consistent vertical or exploded-perspective alignment.
- Annotation: Use clean leader lines (Muted Mid Gray) to point to key features.
Layer Structure Example
- Outer Casing (Anthropic Corporate Dark)
- Thermal Management (Secondary Brand Accent)
- PCB Substrate (Tertiary Brand Accent)
- Battery Module
- Interaction/Connector (Primary Brand Accent)
Best Practices
- Use simple geometric shapes to represent components.
- Avoid over-detailing; focus on modularity and functional separation.
- Maintain consistent spacing between exploded parts to imply modularity.
