use-case-diagram

name	use-case-diagram
description	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

Nexa Rules Gate

Template

@startuml Use Cases Overview

actor "User" as user

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

Conventions

• Each use case has a unique id and a description
• Use Case ID: UC-{3-digit} (UC-001, UC-002, ...)
• Technical Task ID: TT-{3-digit} (TT-001, TT-002, ...) — for provisioning, infrastructure, or configuration work that a use case depends on but that has no user-facing scenario. Technical tasks are represented with a <<technical>> stereotype and dashed border. Use cases that depend on them use a dotted dependency arrow with a <<requires>> label. Example:

  usecase "TT-010\nProvision OAuth App" as TT010 <<technical>>
  UC045 ..> TT010 : <<requires>>
  

• 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)
