Build Figure Skill

Read docs/ai/workflows/build-figure.md and follow it as the canonical workflow.

Typical triggers:

• "make a figure"
• "plot this time series"
• "export this for Word"
• "make the chart publication-quality"

Preferred deterministic command:

• python tools/workflow.py build-figure --output results/figures
• python tools/workflow.py build-figure-suite data/my_data.csv --style ft --narrative --output results/figures
• Use build-figure-suite without --narrative only when the user wants generic chart coverage rather than a story-first suite.

If the workflow doc conflicts with older tool-specific instructions, the shared workflow doc wins.
