You're very lucky if there's an up to date diagram and you got confidence in it's correctness.

Like a hand-made diagram? That's a blast from the past...

I mean a diagram generated directly from your actual infra using the same APIs as the chatbot

Are there existing tools today that can generate a diagram frim the output of the AWS API?

There's this: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/solutions/latest/workload-discov...

And also CloudMapper, CloudCraft, Hava, Lucid, Hyperglance, Cloudviz, and Cloudockit.

So, a resounding yes.

Not to say there couldn't be better tooling for infra diagram generation. I don't know anything open source and cross-provider, I wish someone worked on that. Hiding the grand overview from the user behind a bot with a fuzzy interface just seems counter productive.
