Mermaid v11.13.0 — Venn-beta and Ishikawa-beta diagrams, half-arrowheads, flowchart label fix

release LOW
Mermaid v11.13.0 (published 2026-03-09) introduces two new beta diagram types: venn-beta (Venn diagrams) and ishikawa-beta (cause-and-effect / fishbone diagrams). Also adds half-arrowheads and central connection support in flowcharts, exports icon loader types, and allows notes in class diagram namespaces. Fixes include HTML tag escaping in sandbox rendering, edge animation in hand-drawn styles, and restoration of plain text label rendering in flowcharts (backward-compatibility fix). This matches the version tracked in last-versions.json — no change since last report.

ODS Impact

Mermaid is used for documentation and diagrams in ODS specs. The Ishikawa diagram type is potentially useful for root cause analysis documentation in postmortems. No immediate action required. The HTML escaping fix in sandbox rendering is a minor security improvement for diagrams embedded in web UIs.
