use-case-diagram

Creates or updates PlantUML use case diagrams defining actors, use cases, and their relationships from requirements. Use when the user asks to "create a use case diagram", "draw a UML diagram", "map actors to use cases", "generate a .puml file", or mentions PlantUML, use case overview, actor diagram, or system use cases.

Use Case Diagram

Instructions

Create or update the PlantUML use case diagram at docs/use_cases.puml based on docs/requirements.md.

DO NOT

  • Create diagrams without reading the requirements first
  • Use non-standard PlantUML syntax
  • Include implementation details in use case names

Template

@startuml Use Cases Overview
left to right direction

actor "User" as user
actor "Administrator" as admin

rectangle "System Name" {
    usecase "UC-001\nDescription" as UC001
    usecase "UC-002\nDescription" as UC002
    usecase "UC-003\nDescription" as UC003
}

admin --> UC001
user --> UC002
user --> UC003

@enduml

Conventions

  • Each use case has a unique id and a description
  • Use Case ID: UC-{3-digit} (UC-001, UC-002, ...)
  • Each use case should trace to at least one functional requirement
  • Add notes sparingly, only where relationships need clarification

Workflow

  1. Read the requirements at docs/requirements.md
  2. Read existing diagram at docs/use_cases.puml (if exists)
  3. Identify actors and use cases from requirements
  4. Create/update the PlantUML use case diagram
  5. Validate the diagram:
    • Each use case traces to at least one functional requirement in docs/requirements.md
    • All actors are connected to at least one use case
    • Use case IDs follow the UC-{3-digit} convention
    • PlantUML syntax is valid (no missing @enduml, proper arrow syntax)
