figure-description

Patent figure descriptions map labeled components to claim elements using consistent per-figure reference numerals. This enforces numeral-series consistency by FIG number, producing a complete index and jurisdiction-ready descriptions for patent drafting workflows.

Reference numerals are assigned in per-figure 100-series ranges, ensuring FIG. 1 uses 100–199 and FIG. 2 uses 200–299. The tool maintains numeral consistency across figures for identical components and generates a complete numeral index.

Yes, jurisdiction-aware output supports Chinese (附图说明) and English (FIG.) one-sentence-per-figure descriptions. The tool creates jurisdiction-ready outputs for CN, US, and EP patent filings linked directly to claim elements.

Patent figure discovery searches common project locations for PNG, JPG, SVG, and PDF figure files. The tool scans each figure to identify labeled components, their connections, and any flow or step order for formal description generation.

Cross-reference patent figures by analyzing user-provided files against `patent/INVENTION_DISCLOSURE.md` and `patent/CLAIMS.md`. The tool maps components to claim elements and flags missing required figures or unlabeled components.

When required patent figures are missing or components are unlabeled, the tool actively flags these issues during figure discovery and component analysis. It identifies missing diagrams needed by the claims to prevent incomplete patent applications.
