Figures4papers Playbook

Use this skill to find the closest figures4papers example and convert it into a user-specific plotting script quickly.

Workflow

Parse user intent into chart type and domain (for example: grouped bar + benchmark comparison).
Run
```
scripts/example_locator.py
```
to shortlist candidate scripts.
Read
```
references/example_index.md
```
for folder-level context and naming patterns.
Choose one base script and adapt data, labels, and file outputs.
If style consistency is required, co-use
```
scientific-figure-pro
```
for final polishing.

Locator Script

Use keyword and chart filters:

bash

python skills/figures4papers-playbook/scripts/example_locator.py --keyword bar --chart-type grouped_bar

Output includes:

Folder and domain.
Matching script paths.
Recommended run commands.
Notes about the intended figure purpose.

Selection Rules

Prefer exact chart-type match first.
Then prefer domain match (biomed, LLM eval, vision survey, etc.).
If no exact match exists, choose the simplest script with nearest visual grammar.
Keep output paths under a dedicated
```
figures/
```
directory in the target project.

References

```
references/example_index.md
```
: curated index of available figure folders and scripts.

Handoff Pattern

After locating a base script, provide:

Selected template path.
What to replace (data arrays, labels, colors, limits).
Command to run.
Expected output files (
```
.png
```
and
```
.pdf
```
).
