Mermaid 12.2.0 shipped upstream on October 13, and it is live in all three NGPILOT diagram apps: **Enhanced Markdown for Confluence**, **Mermaid Plus Diagrams & AI Agent for Confluence**, and **Mermaid Plus Diagrams for Jira**. It's a small release with one feature you can see from across the room — mind maps that color themselves by hierarchy depth — and a set of quiet fixes that matter more on Confluence than anywhere else, because Confluence pages are where multiple diagrams share one page.
