Pauli errors that happen during the application of a logical non-Clifford gate can create random syndromes. This is a problem when simulating erroneous circuits and decoding them. We discussed how scalable ZX calculus can help in analyzing the effect of Pauli errors between logical gates in the third level of the Clifford hierarchy and stabilizer measurements. For diagonal gates, a normal form provides a compact representation, and we discussed possibilities for utilizing it in the context of simulating syndrome statistics and the propagation of Clifford errors through the circuit.
