VISUAL STYLE — HAND-DRAWN SKETCH:
- Slightly irregular, hand-drawn line quality — lines wobble gently, not perfectly straight
- Rounded, soft shapes with visible pen strokes (like drawn with a thick felt-tip marker)
- Warm off-white background (#FAFAF7), NOT pure white
- Fill colors are soft watercolor-like washes: muted blue (#D6E4F0), soft peach (#F5DEB3),
  light sage (#D4E6D4), pale lavender (#E6DFF0)
- Borders are dark charcoal (#2C2C2C) with 2-3px line weight, slightly uneven
- Arrows are hand-drawn with slight curves, ending in simple open arrowheads (not filled triangles)
- Text uses a rounded sans-serif font (like Comic Neue or Architects Daughter feel)
- Small doodle-style icons inside boxes: a tiny gear ⚙ for processing, a lightbulb 💡 for ideas,
  a magnifying glass 🔍 for search — rendered as simple line drawings, NOT emoji
- Overall feel: a carefully drawn whiteboard diagram, clean but with personality
- NO clip art, NO stock icons, NO photorealistic elements

VISUAL STYLE — MODERN MINIMAL:
- Ultra-clean geometric shapes with crisp edges
- Bold color blocks as backgrounds for sections — NOT just accent bars, but full section fills
  using desaturated tones: slate blue (#E8EDF2), warm sand (#F5F0E8), cool mint (#E8F2EE)
- Component boxes have ROUNDED CORNERS (12px radius), NO visible border — they float on
  the section background using subtle shadow (1px, 4px blur, rgba(0,0,0,0.06))
- ONE accent color per section used sparingly on key elements: Deep blue (#2563EB),
  Emerald (#059669), Amber (#D97706), Rose (#E11D48)
- Arrows are thin (1.5px), dark gray (#6B7280), with small filled circle at source
  and clean arrowhead at target — NOT thick colored arrows
- Typography: Inter or system sans-serif, title 600 weight, body 400 weight
- Labels INSIDE boxes, not beside them
- Generous whitespace — at least 24px between elements
- NO decorative elements, NO icons — let the structure speak

VISUAL STYLE — ILLUSTRATED TECHNICAL:
- Each major component has a small MEANINGFUL ICON drawn in a consistent line-art style
  (single color, 2px stroke, ~24x24px): brain icon for reasoning, database cylinder for storage,
  arrow-loop for iteration, network nodes for communication
- Components sit inside soft rounded rectangles with a LEFT COLOR STRIP (4px wide)
- Background is pure white, but each logical group has a very faint colored region behind it
  (#F8FAFC for blue group, #FFF8F0 for orange group)
- Connections use CURVED bezier paths (not straight lines), colored by SOURCE component
- Key data flows are THICKER (3px) than secondary flows (1px, dashed)
- Small annotation badges on arrows: "×N" for repeated operations, "optional" in italics
- Title labels are ABOVE each section in small caps, letter-spaced
- Overall: like a well-designed API documentation diagram

VISUAL STYLE — CLASSIC ACCENT BAR:
- Horizontal section bands stacked vertically, pale gray (#F7F7F5) fill
- Thick colored LEFT ACCENT BAR (8px) distinguishes each section
- Content boxes: white fill, thin #DDD border, 4px rounded corners
- Section palette: Blue #4A90D9, Teal #5BA58B, Amber #D4A252, Slate #7B8794
- Sans-serif typography (Helvetica/Arial), bold titles, regular body
- Colored arrows match their SOURCE section
- Clean, flat, zero decoration

1. FRAMING (5 lines): "Create a [STYLE_NAME]-style technical diagram for a
   [VENUE] paper. The diagram should feel [ADJECTIVES]..."

2. VISUAL STYLE (20-30 lines): Copy the full style block from above (A/B/C/D).
   This is the most important section — it determines the entire visual character.

3. COLOR PALETTE (10 lines): Exact hex codes for every color used.

4. LAYOUT (50-150 lines): Every component, box, section — exact text, spatial
   arrangement, and grouping. Be exhaustively specific.

5. CONNECTIONS (30-80 lines): Every arrow individually — source, target, style,
   label, routing direction.

6. CONSTRAINTS (10 lines): What NOT to include. Adapt per style — e.g., sketch
   style allows slight irregularity but still no clip art.
