Patrick Creighton

Worked on improving the reliability of the mermaid-js/mermaid-cli repository by addressing a critical issue in the rendering pipeline related to Puppeteer’s scale factor handling. Focused on CLI development using JavaScript, the work involved implementing a float parser to ensure the --scale argument is correctly interpreted, thereby enhancing input validation and error handling. This fix reduced the risk of mis-scaled diagrams and runtime errors during automated rendering processes. By strengthening the robustness of argument parsing, the update contributed to more stable CLI renders and smoother integration in automated pipelines, reflecting a careful approach to error prevention and input management.

February 2026: Stabilized rendering reliability in mermaid-cli focusing on Puppeteer scale handling. Delivered a bug fix to ensure the --scale argument is parsed as a float, strengthening input validation and error handling across the rendering pipeline. This reduces mis-scaling and runtime errors in CLI renders and automated pipelines.
