Self-contained styled HTML reports written to results/: PDF-exportable research documents with inline data, charts, and theme-aware CSS
HTML Report
Author a styled, self-contained HTML document and write it to results/ (e.g. results/report.html). The file panel renders it with full browser semantics — JavaScript runs, CDN libraries load, relative assets resolve, and the user can view it fullscreen, open it in a new tab, download it, or export it to PDF.
This is the right output when the user wants a deliverable they can keep, share, or print — an equity research note, an earnings recap, a screen writeup — not a throwaway answer.
Read .agents/skills/ui-design/SKILL.md before authoring. It defines the typography, color, and composition standards that keep the report looking like a research desk artifact rather than a generic AI page. This skill covers the mechanics; that one covers the taste.
User preferences override these defaults. Anything the user has told you — in this conversation, in your long-term memory, or in their saved preferences/memos — outranks every rule in this skill. If they want a different structure, no charts, a specific set of sections, or a particular file layout, do that. (Visual taste — fonts, color, accent, light/dark — is .agents/skills/ui-design/SKILL.md's domain; that skill defers to the user's stated style.) Treat the rules here as sensible defaults for when the user hasn't specified.
Decide: Which Output?
A report from this skill can be interactive (sortable tables, tab/filter controls, hover- and zoomable charts — see Interactivity, below). So interactivity is not what separates it from a dashboard. The real divide is self-contained snapshot file vs. live served app:
Want
Use
Why
A document the user keeps, shares, or exports to PDF — even one that's interactive within itself
html-report (this skill) — .html in results/
One file on disk, served with real semantics, PDF-exportable. Interactivity runs client-side over an embedded data snapshot.
A quick visualization inside the chat (one chart, a metric row, a table)
inline-widget (ShowWidget)
Appears inline between text; no file, no panel
A live served app — refreshing data, server-side compute, multi-page routing, or a dataset too large to embed
interactive-dashboard (GetPreviewUrl)
A running app with a backend, not a static file. Needed when the data must be fetched live, not embedded.
A simple, short answer
plain markdown
A styled HTML document is overkill for a one-paragraph reply
Self-Contained by Default
Write one complete HTML file. Everything inline — no external CSS/JS files, no build step.
import json
data = {"labels": ["Q1", "Q2", "Q3", "Q4"], "revenue": [2.1, 2.4, 2.6, 3.0]}
html = f"""<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Acme Q4 Revenue Review</title>
<style>/* all CSS inline here */</style>
</head>
<body>
<main>...</main>
<script>const DATA = {json.dumps(data, ensure_ascii=False)};</script>
<script>/* render charts from DATA */</script>
</body>
</html>"""withopen("results/report.html", "w", encoding="utf-8") as f:
f.write(html)
Rules:
Full <!DOCTYPE html> document with <head>/<body> (unlike inline-widget, which is a bare fragment).
All CSS in a <style> block, all JS in <script> blocks — nothing external except allowlisted CDN libraries.
Embed data via <script>const DATA = {json.dumps(data, ensure_ascii=False)};</script> — never inline raw Python dicts, never fetch() a local file. ensure_ascii=False keeps non-ASCII (names, currencies, CJK) readable and correctly encoded.
Sample or aggregate large datasets before embedding. A report doesn't need every tick — downsample to a sensible resolution, aggregate to the reporting period. Keep the embedded payload lean (target well under ~1MB).
Multi-File When Warranted
The viewer serves files with real relative-path semantics, so a report can reference sibling assets and they resolve correctly:
results/
report.html # references charts/revenue.png as a relative path
charts/
revenue.png
margins.png
Use multi-file for image-heavy reports — e.g. when you've generated high-quality static charts with matplotlib/plotly savefig and want to embed them rather than redraw client-side.
Rules:
Keep all asset paths relative (charts/revenue.png, not /results/... and not absolute filesystem paths).
Keep every asset inside the workspace and under results/ (or a subdir of it). Do not reference files outside the workspace.
Prefer self-contained when the charts can reasonably be drawn client-side from embedded DATA; reach for multi-file when raster images give materially better output.
CDN Allowlist
Only these origins are reachable from the rendered document. Anything else (including arbitrary fetch()) is blocked.
cdnjs.cloudflare.com
cdn.jsdelivr.net
unpkg.com
esm.sh
Google Fonts: fonts.googleapis.com + fonts.gstatic.com
Load chart libraries, fonts, and helpers from these only. Do not call out to data APIs from the document — embed the data instead.
Theme Variables (Defensive Fallback Form)
The viewer can inject app --color-* variables so the report themes with light/dark mode. Always author colors in the fallback form so the document also renders correctly standalone, in a downloaded file, and in print:
The literal fallback is what shows when no app vars are injected (downloaded file, PDF, plain open). Never write a bare var(--color-x) without a fallback, and never hardcode a color with no variable — both break one of the surfaces.
Reuse the same variable names as the inline-widget skill:
Variable
Purpose
Suggested light fallback
--color-bg-page
Page background
#fbfaf8
--color-bg-card
Card/panel background
#ffffff
--color-bg-elevated
Elevated surface
#ffffff
--color-bg-subtle
Subtle/muted background
#f4f2ee
--color-bg-hover
Hover state background
#efece7
--color-text-primary
Primary text
#1a1a1a
--color-text-secondary
Secondary/muted text
#5a5a5a
--color-text-tertiary
Hint/label text
#8a8a8a
--color-border-muted
Default border (hairline)
#e4e1dc
--color-accent-primary
Brand/accent color
#1f5fb4
--color-profit
Positive/gain (green)
#1a7f4f
--color-loss
Negative/loss (red)
#b42318
--color-warning
Warning (amber)
#b7791f
--color-info
Info (blue)
#1f5fb4
--color-success
Success (green)
#1a7f4f
Charts
Load Chart.js or ECharts from CDN. Canvas pixels cannot read CSS variables, so resolve colors via getComputedStyle with a literal fallback for the standalone/print case:
Resolve canvas colors with getComputedStyle + literal fallback (the pick() helper above) — never bare var() in canvas color strings.
Use UMD CDN builds (set the library global).
For categorical series, follow the restrained palette in .agents/skills/ui-design/SKILL.md — no rainbow defaults.
Interactivity (When It Helps)
The served document runs JavaScript, so a report can be interactive — and should be when interactivity genuinely helps the reader explore the data, not as decoration. All of it runs client-side over the embedded DATA snapshot; there is no server and no live refresh (that's interactive-dashboard).
Reach for interactivity when it earns its place:
Sortable / filterable tables — let the reader sort a holdings table by weight or P&L, or filter to a sector. Pays off most on tables past ~15 rows.
Tabbed or accordion sections — segment a long report (Summary / Financials / Valuation / Risks) so the reader isn't scrolling past everything.
Interactive charts — Chart.js/ECharts hover tooltips, series toggles (click a legend entry to hide a line), range zoom on a long price history.
Collapsible detail / "show more" — keep the default view tight; let the curious expand methodology, footnotes, or a raw-numbers table.
In-page search / highlight — for a long screen or a wide comparison.
Rules:
Wire events with addEventListener, not inline onclick= / on*= attributes. It is the robust pattern across every surface and keeps logic out of the markup.
Client-side only. Operate on the embedded DATA; never fetch() a data API (the CDN allowlist blocks it). If the data must be live or is too big to embed, that's a dashboard, not a report.
Default state must be meaningful. The report has to read correctly before any click — a reader (or a PDF export) that never interacts must still see the substance. Never hide the headline finding behind a tab.
Degrade for print. Interactive controls (tab bars, filter inputs, sort buttons, "show more" toggles) are chrome — give them .no-print, and make collapsed content render expanded when printing so the PDF is complete. The @media print block below already hides button / .no-print.
Keep it self-contained and lean. Vanilla JS over the embedded data; no framework, no build step. A little event delegation goes a long way.
Match the effort to the data: a one-number recap needs no interactivity; a 40-holding portfolio or a multi-section deep-dive benefits a lot.
Print / PDF
PDF export = the browser's print-to-PDF. Include an @media print block — without it, PDFs come out degraded. It should:
@media print {
/* hide interactive chrome — buttons, toolbars, nav, anything not part of the document */.no-print, button, nav, .toolbar { display: none !important; }
/* keep logical blocks from splitting across pages */section, figure, table, .card, .kpi { break-inside: avoid; page-break-inside: avoid; }
h1, h2, h3 { break-after: avoid; }
/* sane page setup */@page { margin: 18mm16mm; }
body { background: #fff; color: #000; }
/* never let entrance animations leave content invisible in the PDF */
*, *::before, *::after { animation: none !important; transition: none !important; opacity: 1!important; }
/* collapse side-by-side layouts — paper is ~816px wide; squeezed columns
overlap charts and crush prose */.row, .grid, .columns { display: block !important; }
.row > *, .grid > *, .columns > * { width: 100%!important; max-width: 100%!important; }
}
If any element starts at opacity: 0 for an entrance animation, the opacity: 1 !important rule above is what stops the PDF from exporting blank — keep it. Test the print path before declaring done.
Multi-column layouts print badly. Print width is ~816 CSS px — a flex/grid row pairing a chart card with a text column does not fit and will overlap or crush. Either keep the document single-column throughout (safest for a report), or include print rules like the collapse block above for every side-by-side container you create. Chart wrappers keep their fixed height either way.
Landscape documents must declare it. If the content is genuinely wide (a comparison matrix, a wide timeline, a dashboard-style sheet), declare the orientation in the print block — PDF export honors it and lays the page out at landscape width (~1056 CSS px), so charts and columns size for the real paper:
@page { size: letter landscape; margin: 14mm16mm; }
Named sizes (a4, legal, ...) with optional landscape work too. Without a declaration, export is portrait Letter — don't design landscape-wide content and skip the declaration.
Print typography. Screen sizing usually reads too large on paper. Inside @media print, set print-affecting sizes in pt and tighten slightly:
Aim for 10–11pt body text — the register of a printed research note. Keep table cell padding compact (4pt 8pt) so wide tables fit. Page margins come from @page { margin: ... }, not body padding.
Authoring Workflow
Fetch and validate data first (check for empty/None); sample or aggregate to a sensible size.
Read .agents/skills/ui-design/SKILL.md and commit to a typographic pairing + color direction.
Build the full document — inline CSS/JS, embed DATA, draw charts from it; add the @media print block.
Write to results/report.html (UTF-8). Image-heavy → write assets to results/charts/*.png and reference them relatively.
Open it and print-preview, then cite the report to the user as a clickable link.
