My favorite flavor, plantuml, available with a cheesy (but very convenient) cli wrapper via npm- https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-plantuml The --unicode mode is particularly delightful

There's a VSCode plugin for plantuml, it's fantastic.

+1 for plantuml. You can make very useful sequence diagrams with it, in ascii no less.

It would be remiss at this point not to recommend websequencediagrams[0].. been using it for years (and convinced multiple workplaces to shell out for the self hosted version..). It's great :)
