SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Planning publication-ready figures and tables from a manuscript is time-consuming and error-prone, often leading to inconsistent visuals and misaligned captions across sections.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated figure/table planning that maps narrative claims to visuals (graphs, diagrams, schemas) and suggests placement within the manuscript.
  • Reusable planning templates and checklists to ensure journal-style sizing, color accessibility, and caption clarity.
  • Collaborative workflow: generates planning cards with traceability to source results, enabling review before actual figure drawing or table creation.

Quick Start

Provide the manuscript outline or draft and run the planner to produce an initial set of planning cards for figures and tables.

FAQPage Schema
How do I plan publication-ready figures for a scientific manuscript?▼

To plan publication-ready figures, provide your manuscript draft to generate planning cards that map narrative claims to visuals, suggest placement, and ensure journal sizing, color accessibility, and caption clarity.

What is a figure planning card and how does it help with scientific paper visuals?▼

A figure planning card is a traceable validation artifact that maps manuscript narrative claims to specific charts or schematics, ensuring end-to-end traceability from concept to submission before actual figure drawing begins.

Can I use this workflow to design multi-panel figures with consistent captions?▼

Yes, this workflow supports designing multi-panel figures across manuscript sections by applying consistent captions, journal sizing rules, and color palettes to ensure visual alignment throughout the publication.

Does this figure planning approach support reproducible scripting for data visualization?▼

Yes, the figure planning approach supports reproducible scripting by generating planning templates and checklists that validate journal sizing constraints and color accessibility before executing data visualization scripts.

What is the best way to ensure my charts meet journal sizing rules and accessibility standards?▼

The best way to meet journal sizing rules and accessibility standards is applying reusable planning templates that validate color palettes, caption guidelines, and sizing constraints against target journal requirements during the figure design process.
