SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This workflow generates publication-quality academic figures by coordinating Claude as planner/reviewer with a local Codex app-server MCP bridge for rendering, enabling researchers to produce high-quality visuals without leaving their familiar tools.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • End-to-end figure creation from a user prompt to final artifacts, including planning, layout optimization, and style verification.
  • Native rendering via the codex-image2 bridge with strict preflight and verification steps to ensure paper-ready output.
  • Supports common figure types for research papers (architecture diagrams, conceptual figures) with LaTeX-friendly outputs such as final PNGs and latex snippets.

Quick Start

Provide a paper figure brief and run the paper-illustration-image2 workflow to generate a publication-ready figure.

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate publication-ready academic figures from text prompts?

Yes, you can create LaTeX-ready academic figures by providing a figure brief. The workflow outputs final PNGs and LaTeX snippets through preflight checks, iterative layout refinement, and strict artifact packaging.

What is the best way to create architecture diagrams for research papers?

Creating architecture diagrams for research papers involves an end-to-end workflow using a planner and local rendering bridge. It enforces preflight checks and iterative style refinement to produce high-quality conceptual figures tailored for academic publications.

Do I need a local Codex app-server to render academic figures?

Yes, a local Codex app-server bridge is required. The workflow uses Claude as a planner and reviewer while relying on this local bridge for native image generation, preflight checks, and strict artifact packaging.

How does the style verification process work for academic figures?

Style verification works through iterative layout and style refinement coordinated by a planner and reviewer. It enforces strict preflight checks and artifact packaging to ensure final outputs meet publication standards for research papers.

Can I use this workflow for conceptual figures in research papers?

Yes, this workflow supports conceptual figures in research papers. It handles end-to-end creation from planning through final verification, supporting architecture and conceptual diagrams with LaTeX-friendly outputs like final PNGs and snippets.

What are the limitations of using a local rendering bridge for academic figures?

A limitation of using a local rendering bridge is the dependency on the local Codex app-server environment. The workflow requires this bridge for native image generation and preflight checks, which may limit portability across different systems.
