Automatic ASCII diagram repair tool for Markdown files

Overview

ascfix fixes misaligned ASCII diagrams in Markdown, especially those generated by LLMs. It normalizes box widths, aligns arrows, enforces uniform padding, and ensures diagrams remain maintainable.

Ideal for:

AI-generated documentation with ASCII diagrams
Markdown files with workflow diagrams
CI/CD pipeline documentation
Architecture diagrams in code repositories

Quality Guarantees

ascfix prioritizes safety and reliability with a conservative approach:

Zero Data Loss

Content preservation - designed to never delete or modify unintended text
Non-destructive processing - safe to run on Markdown files
Idempotent operations - running multiple times produces consistent results for simple diagrams (see Known Limitations)
Conservative default - when uncertain, preserves original formatting

Intelligent Quality Assurance

Automated quality validation - comprehensive test suite with 10+ passing unit fixtures
Semantic transformation analysis - distinguishes beneficial improvements from potential corruption
Context-aware processing - understands diagram elements vs. regular text
Active development - complex nested structures handled conservatively

Professional Output

Consistent formatting - uniform spacing, proper alignment for simple and moderate diagrams
Basic nested box support - single-level nesting works reliably
Arrow alignment - intelligent positioning for standard workflows
Conservative mode - deeply nested (3+ levels) or complex overlapping structures preserved unchanged

Features

Processing Modes

Diagram mode (default): Repair ASCII boxes, arrows, and diagram structures
Safe mode: Normalize Markdown tables only - safest for any file
Check mode: Validate without modifying (exit code 1 if changes needed - perfect for CI/CD)
All mode: Shorthand for --fences --mode=diagram to repair everything

Diagram Repair

Box style preservation: Single-line (┌┐└┘│─), double-line (╔╗╚╝║═), and rounded (╭╮╰╯│─) boxes
Box width normalization: Expands boxes to fit content with uniform padding
Side-by-side balancing: Equalizes widths of adjacent boxes for visual consistency
Nested box support: Parent boxes expand to properly contain children with margins
Arrow alignment: Aligns vertical arrows to box centers, horizontal arrows to edges
Connection lines: L-shaped paths with corner connectors
Label preservation: Maintains text labels attached to primitives

Markdown Repair

Table normalization: Aligns columns and fixes hard-wrapped cells
List normalization: Standardizes bullet styles (- * + → -), fixes indentation, adds spacing
Link preservation: Handles URLs with parentheses and reference-style links
Fence repair: Fixes mismatched fence lengths, unclosed blocks, duplicate closing fences

File Operations

Directory processing: Recursively process directories with automatic file discovery
Multiple extensions: Process .md, .mdx, .txt files (customizable with --ext)
Smart filtering: Automatically skips hidden directories, node_modules, target, build output
Size limits: Configurable max file size (--max-size 5MB)
In-place editing: Modify files directly with --in-place (default: stdout output)
Error resilience: Continue processing remaining files on individual errors

Safety & Quality

Conservative: Only fixes well-understood structures; unknown patterns preserved unchanged
Idempotent: Running twice produces identical output (safe for repeated application)
No panics: Handles malformed input gracefully without crashes
Zero unsafe code: Compile-time enforced with #![forbid(unsafe_code)]
No data loss: Never deletes or rewords content - only improves formatting
Fast: Linear O(n) processing time suitable for large files and CI/CD

Integration

Exit codes: 0 = success/no changes needed, 1 = check failed or error (CI/CD friendly)
GitHub Actions ready: Verified workflows for testing, linting, security auditing
Configuration file support: .ascfix.toml for project-wide settings

Installation

Recommended: From crates.io

The simplest way to install ascfix is via crates.io:

cargo install ascfix

From source

To build from the latest development version:

git clone https://github.com/evoludigit/ascfix.git
cd ascfix
cargo install --path .

Troubleshooting Installation

Permission denied when installing:

If you see Permission denied (os error 13) during installation, your system likely has /tmp mounted with noexec (a security configuration that prevents executing files from temporary directories). Set a build directory:

CARGO_TARGET_DIR=~/.cargo/build cargo install ascfix

Or build from source:

git clone https://github.com/evoludigit/ascfix.git
cd ascfix
cargo install --path .

Usage

Single Files

# Fix a file (default: diagram mode, output to stdout)
ascfix README.md

# Fix a file in place (default: diagram mode)
ascfix README.md --in-place

# Only normalize tables and lists (safe mode)
ascfix README.md --in-place --mode safe

# Repair code fence boundaries
ascfix README.md --in-place --fences

# Repair everything (diagram mode + fence repair)
ascfix README.md --in-place --all

# Validate without modifying (exit code 1 if changes needed)
ascfix README.md --check

Directories

# Process all .md and .mdx files in a directory
ascfix docs/ --in-place --mode=diagram

# Process a directory recursively (skips hidden dirs, node_modules, target, etc.)
ascfix . --in-place --all

# Process only .md files (default includes .md, .mdx, .txt)
ascfix docs/ -e .md --in-place

# Process .mdx files only
ascfix docs/ -e .mdx --in-place

# Complex filtering with find (exclude specific paths)
ascfix $(find . -name "*.md" -not -path "*/node_modules/*" -not -path "*/.git/*") --in-place

# Or use fd (faster)
ascfix $(fd -e md) --in-place

# Check multiple files without modifying
ascfix docs/ --check

Modes

Mode	Description	Use Case
`safe`	Fix only Markdown tables	Conservative, safe for any file
`diagram`	Fix boxes and arrows	For files with ASCII diagrams
`check`	Validate without writing	CI/CD validation

Flag	Short	Description	Default
`--in-place`	`-i`	Modify files instead of printing to stdout	Off
`--check`	`-c`	Validate files without modifying (returns exit code 1 if changes needed)	Off
`--fences`		Repair code fence boundaries	Off
`--all`		Shorthand for `--fences --mode=diagram`	Off
`--mode`		Processing mode (safe, diagram, check)	safe
`--ext`	`-e`	File extensions to process (comma-separated, e.g., `.md,.mdx`)	`.md,.mdx`
`--max-size`		Maximum file size to process (e.g., "100MB", "1GB")	Unlimited

Output & Formatting Flags

Flag	Short	Description	Use Case

`--json`		Output results as JSON (machine-readable)	AI/programmatic use
`--diff`		Show unified diff of changes without modifying files	Preview changes

Ignore Markers

ascfix supports HTML comment markers to exclude specific content from processing. This is useful for:

Preserving intentional ASCII art that shouldn't be "fixed"
Protecting decorative elements like logos or banners
Excluding complex diagrams that should remain unchanged

Supported marker syntax:

<!-- ascfix:ignore -->
[content to ignore]
<!-- /ascfix:ignore -->

Or alternatively:

<!-- ascfix-ignore-start -->
[content to ignore]
<!-- ascfix-ignore-end -->

Example:

<!-- ascfix:ignore -->
```
 .----------------.  .----------------.
| .--------------. || .--------------. |
| |    LOGO      | || |    HERE      | |
| '--------------' || '--------------' |
 '----------------'  '----------------'
```
<!-- /ascfix:ignore -->

This box will be processed:
┌──────┐
│ Test │
└──────┘

Content inside ignore markers is completely skipped by ascfix, regardless of mode. Ignore markers work with:

Code fences (content inside fences within ignore blocks is preserved)
Inline diagrams
Tables
Any other Markdown content

Important: Ignore markers are removed from the output (they're HTML comments, so they won't appear in rendered Markdown).

Examples

All examples below are verified test fixtures from our test suite (see tests/data/). Each example demonstrates specific features with real before/after transformations.

Box Style Variants

ascfix detects and preserves different box drawing styles:

Single-line boxes (┌ ┐ └ ┘ │ ─):

┌────────┐
│ Single │
└────────┘

Double-line boxes (╔ ╗ ╚ ╝ ║ ═):

╔════════════════╗
║ Double-Line    ║
║ Box Style      ║
╚════════════════╝

Rounded-corner boxes (╭ ╮ ╰ ╯):

╭────────────────╮
│ Rounded        │
│ Corner Box     │
╰────────────────╯

Side-by-Side Box Balancing

ascfix automatically normalizes widths of horizontally adjacent boxes:

Before:

┌───────┐  ┌─────┐  ┌────────────┐
│ Box 1 │  │ B2  │  │ Box Three  │
└───────┘  └─────┘  └────────────┘

After:

┌─────────────┐ ┌─────────────┐ ┌─────────────┐
│ Box 1       │ │ B2          │ │ Box Three   │
└─────────────┘ └─────────────┘ └─────────────┘

Nested Box Hierarchies

Parent boxes expand to properly contain children with appropriate margins:

Before:

┌──────────────┐
│ Parent       │
│ ┌────────┐   │
│ │ Child  │   │
│ └────────┘   │
└──────────────┘

After:

┌────────────────────┐
│ Parent             │
│                    │
│  ┌──────────────┐  │

Test Suite & Fixtures

The project includes 55+ test fixtures organized in tests/data/:

Verified Working Examples:

Safe mode fixtures: Table normalization, list formatting, link preservation
Basic diagrams: Simple boxes, arrows, side-by-side alignment
Standard workflows: CI/CD pipelines, simple nested structures

Edge Cases & Error Handling:

Malformed inputs: Broken tables, wrapped cells
Boundary conditions: Empty files, minimal diagrams
Real-world patterns: API docs, ML pipelines (in conservative mode)

Conservative Mode Active: Some complex diagram fixtures (deep nesting, overlapping elements, mixed styles with labels) exercise the tool's conservative behavior. When structures are ambiguous or highly complex, ascfix preserves the original formatting unchanged rather than risk corruption. This prioritizes safety and data preservation over aggressive transformation.

Verify examples yourself:

# Run all tests to verify fixtures
cargo test

# Process a specific file
ascfix README.md --mode=diagram

tests/data/unit/ - Simple, focused examples
tests/data/integration/ - Complex real-world scenarios
tests/data/integration/dirty/ - Malformed inputs and error cases

Every example in this README can be verified:

# Run tests to verify all fixtures
cargo test

# Process a specific fixture
ascfix tests/data/unit/input/ci_pipeline.md --mode=diagram

Advanced Features in Diagram Mode

Box Style Variants

ascfix supports multiple box drawing styles and automatically preserves them:

Single-line boxes (default):

┌─────┐
│ Box │
└─────┘

Double-line boxes:

╔═════╗
║ Box ║
╚═════╝

Rounded-corner boxes:

╭─────╮
│ Box │
╰─────╯

All styles are detected, preserved, and normalized consistently. Mixed styles in the same diagram are handled correctly.

Nested Box Hierarchies

ascfix detects and supports basic parent-child box relationships. Single-level nesting works reliably:

Before (parent too small):

┌──────────────┐
│ Parent       │
│ ┌────────┐   │
│ │ Child  │   │
│ └────────┘   │
└──────────────┘

After (parent expanded with margins):

┌────────────────────┐
│ Parent             │
│                    │
│  ┌──────────────┐  │
│  │ Child        │  │
│  └──────────────┘  │
│                    │
└────────────────────┘

Important: Complex nested structures (>2 levels deep) or diagrams with overlapping elements are currently handled in conservative mode - they are preserved unchanged rather than risk corruption. This ensures safety over aggressive transformation.

Side-by-Side Box Alignment

ascfix automatically balances the width of horizontally adjacent boxes for visual consistency:

Before (inconsistent widths):

┌───────┐  ┌─────┐  ┌────────────┐
│ Box 1 │  │ B2  │  │ Box Three  │
└───────┘  └─────┘  └────────────┘

After (uniform widths):

┌─────────────┐ ┌─────────────┐ ┌─────────────┐
│ Box 1       │ │ B2          │ │ Box Three   │
└─────────────┘ └─────────────┘ └─────────────┘

Enhanced Arrow Support

ascfix recognizes and normalizes various arrow styles:

Standard arrows: → ↓ ↑ ←
Double arrows: ⇒ ⇓ ⇑ ⇐
Extended arrows: ⟶ ⟹

All arrows are aligned to box centers and maintained at consistent columns throughout the diagram.

Connection Lines (Conservative)

ascfix supports L-shaped connection paths with limited scope (4 segments maximum per connection):

┌────────┐
│ Start  │
└───┬────┘
    │
    └─────┬─────────┐
          │         │
      ┌───▼───┐ ┌──▼──┐
      │ Path1 │ │Path2│
      └───────┘ └─────┘

Connection detection is conservative to avoid false positives. Very complex paths are skipped.

Label Preservation (Framework)

ascfix includes framework support for preserving text labels attached to primitives during normalization. Label detection and rendering are currently conservative (skeleton implementation):

Labels attached to boxes are tracked
Labels attached to arrows are preserved
Relative offsets are maintained during normalization
Collision detection prevents label-diagram overlap

Known Limitations

Idempotence for Complex Diagrams

ascfix is designed to be idempotent (running multiple times produces the same result), and this works reliably for most use cases:

✅ Fully Idempotent:

Simple ASCII boxes and arrows
Markdown tables in Safe mode
Single-level nested boxes
Standard list formatting

⚠️ Known Limitations: Complex diagrams with deeply nested boxes (3+ levels) or overlapping elements may not be fully idempotent. After the first normalization pass, the expanded parent boxes create new spatial relationships that can trigger different detection on subsequent runs.

Why This Happens:

First pass: Parent box expands to fit children
Second pass: Detection sees new box dimensions and may recalculate relationships
For deeply nested hierarchies (3+ levels), this can cascade

Recommended Approach:

Run ascfix once on complex diagrams
Review the output
Commit the normalized version
For table-only processing, use --mode=safe which is always idempotent

For technical details about the detection phase and spatial relationship algorithms, see ARCHITECTURE.md. For workarounds and testing strategies, see LIBRARY_USAGE.md.

Building & Testing

# Run all tests
cargo test

# Check code quality
cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings

# Build release binary
cargo build --release

All code is tested with TDD discipline - unit tests, integration tests, and golden file tests. Test data is organized in tests/data/ with clear separation between unit and integration test cases.

Programmatic Usage

ascfix is designed for easy integration into scripts, AI agents, and CI/CD pipelines.

For AI Agents

Use JSON mode for structured output:

# Get machine-readable results
ascfix docs/ --json --check --mode=diagram > results.json

Parse the JSON to understand what changed:

{
  "files": [
    {
      "status": "modified",
      "file": "docs/workflow.md"
    },
    {
      "status": "error",
      "file": "docs/broken.md",
      "error": "Failed to read: Permission denied"
    }
  ],
  "stats": {
    "total": 2,
    "modified": 1,
    "errors": 1
  }
}

For Shell Scripts

Use list-files mode for simple pipelines:

#!/bin/bash
# Fix all files that need it
for file in $(ascfix docs/ --list-files --check --mode=diagram); do
  echo "Fixing: $file"
  ascfix "$file" --in-place --mode=diagram
done

Use exit codes for CI/CD:

# Exit 0 if all files are clean, 1 if fixes needed
ascfix docs/ --check --mode=diagram
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
  echo "⚠️  Diagrams need normalization"
  exit 1
fi

For Python Scripts

import subprocess
import json

result = subprocess.run(
    ["ascfix", "docs/", "--json", "--check", "--mode=diagram"],
    capture_output=True,
    text=True
)

data = json.loads(result.stdout)
modified_files = [f["file"] for f in data["files"] if f["status"] == "modified"]
print(f"Files needing fixes: {modified_files}")
