Paper Figures Advise
Overview
Use this skill for experimental figure ideation and figure-related wording. For architecture reference images generated from code or method descriptions, use paper-figure-archi.
Workflow
- Identify whether the user needs:
- chart recommendation from data,
- a figure caption,
- or a table caption.
- Load the matching reference and keep the output tightly scoped to that artifact.
- If the task requires actual deck or slide generation, route the rendering/build step to
slides after using this skill for structure and wording.
Reference Routing
- Experimental chart recommendation:
references/chart-recommendation.md
- Figure and table captions:
references/captions.md
- Architecture reference figures: use
paper-figure-archi.
Figure Rules
- Prefer academic clarity over visual decoration.
- Keep text in figures short and label-oriented.
- When recommending charts, account for uncertainty, scale gaps, and label length.
