SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates the manual effort of writing formal patent drawing descriptions by converting user-provided technical figures into structured, reference-numeral-based text.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Figure discovery and validation: Scans project directories for figure files (PNG/JPG/SVG/PDF) and flags missing figures needed for claim elements.
  • Component numeral assignment: Assigns consistent 100-series reference numerals per figure (e.g., FIG. 1 = 100–199) and supports reuse of numerals across multiple figures for the same component.
  • Jurisdiction-aware output: Generates one-sentence-per-figure drawing descriptions in Chinese (附图说明) or English (US/EP style), plus a complete reference numeral index with claim cross-references.
  • Use case: When drafting a patent and you have multiple labeled drawings, you can generate consistent FIG. descriptions and a numeral index that map visual components to claim elements.

Quick Start

Use the figure-description skill to generate drawing descriptions and a reference numeral index from the patent figures in your project for the attached figure list.

Frequently Asked Questions about figure-description

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate formal patent drawing descriptions from technical diagrams?

To generate formal patent drawing descriptions from technical diagrams, provide your patent figure files so the system can extract visual components, assign consistent 100-series reference numerals, and output structured text descriptions.

How do I assign consistent reference numerals to patent figures automatically?

To assign consistent reference numerals automatically, the system scans your directory for figure files and maps visual components to standardized 100-series numerals per figure, such as assigning FIG. 1 to the 100–199 range.

Can I map technical diagrams to patent claims in both Chinese and English?

You can map technical diagrams to patent claims in both Chinese and English, as the system generates jurisdiction-aware outputs like CN style 附图说明 and US/EP style descriptions with claim cross-references.

What file formats are supported for patent figure extraction and validation?

For patent figure extraction and validation, the system supports PNG, JPG, SVG, and PDF file formats, scanning your project directories to discover assets and flag any missing figures needed for claim elements.

What is the best way to create a reference numeral index for patent drafting?

The best way to create a reference numeral index for patent drafting is to process labeled drawings through an automated extraction system that generates a complete numeral index with claim cross-references and a figure descriptions markdown file.

Does automated figure description generation reuse numerals for the same component across multiple figures?

Automated figure description generation does reuse numerals for the same component across multiple figures, ensuring consistent reference identification throughout your patent claims mapping and technical diagram documentation.
