matplotlib-scientific-plotting from jaechang-hits/sciagent-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Low-level Python plotting for scientific figures: publication-quality line, scatter, bar, heatmap, contour, 3D; multi-panel layouts; fine control of every element. PNG/PDF/SVG export. Use seaborn for quick stats, plotly for interactive.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# matplotlib ## Overview Matplotlib is Python's foundational visualization library for creating static, animated, and interactive plots. It provides both a MATLAB-style pyplot interface and an object-oriented API for full control over figures, axes, and artists. Essential for generating publication-quality scientific figures. ## When to Use - Creating publication-quality plots with precise control over every element (fonts, ticks, colors, spacing) - Building multi-panel figures with complex subplot layouts for papers - Generating standard scientific plot types: line, scatter, bar, histogram, heatmap, box, violin, contour - Exporting figures to vector formats (PDF, SVG) for journal submission - Creating 3D surface, scatter, or wireframe plots - Customizing colormaps and color schemes for accessibility (colorblind-friendly) - Integrating plots with NumPy arrays and pandas DataFrames - For quick statistical visualizations (distributions, regressions), use `seaborn` instead - For interactive/web-based plots with hover and zoom, use `plotly` instead ## Prerequisites - **Python packages**: `matplotlib`, `numpy` …

How to install
mdr add jaechang-hits/sciagent-skills/matplotlib-scientific-plotting@sha256:ebce1443bd5391d8The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260528.a0c28a2, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
