What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps you convert research results into publication-grade scientific figures and tables, including choosing the right artifact type (figure vs table) and exporting paper-ready outputs.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Publication-grade figure/table production: Generate publication-quality graphics and companion tables using pubfig for figures and pubtab for tables.
- Artifact choice and workflow mapping: Recommend the most appropriate representation family (e.g., benchmark comparison, ablation, calibration diagnostics) based on the scientific communication goal.
- End-to-end runnable delivery: Probe tool availability, auto-install missing pubfig/pubtab when execution is required, generate the runnable route, and export explicit filenames and formats.
- Publication QA and targeted revision: Run concrete readability checks (axes/units, legends, ordering, grayscale robustness, caption readiness) and propose falsifiable revision changes when outputs are weak.
- Mixed deliverables: Produce a clear division of labor for figure + companion table when both pattern perception and exact values matter.
Quick Start
Use the publication-chart-skill when you need a publication-quality figure or companion table from your results, for example: make a benchmark comparison figure plus a LaTeX-ready table from an existing Excel sheet.
