Create R-based pictogram glyphs for skill, agent, or team icons in the visualization layer. Covers concept sketching, ggplot2 layer composition using the primitives library, color strategy, registration in the appropriate glyph mapping file and manifest, rendering via the build pipeline, and visual verification of the neon-glow output. Use when a new entity has been added and needs a visual icon for the force-graph visualization, an existing glyph needs replacement, or when batch-creating…

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

# Create Glyph

Create R-based pictogram glyphs for skill, agent, or team icons in the `viz/` visualization layer. Each glyph is a pure-ggplot2 function that draws a recognizable shape on a 100x100 canvas, rendered with a neon glow effect to transparent-background WebP.

## When to Use

- A new skill, agent, or team has been added and needs a visual icon
- An existing glyph needs replacement or redesign
- Batch-creating glyphs for a new domain of skills
- Prototyping visual metaphors for entity concepts

## Inputs

- **Required**: Entity type — `skill`, `agent`, or `team`
- **Required**: Entity ID (e.g., `create-glyph`, `mystic`, `r-package-review`) and domain (for skills)
- **Required**: Visual concept — what the glyph should depict
- **Optional**: Reference glyph to study for complexity level
- **Optional**: Custom `--glow-sigma` value (default: 4)

## Procedure

### Step 1: Concept — Design the Visual Metaphor

Identify the entity being iconified and choose a visual metaphor.

1. Read the entity's source file to understand its core concept:
   - Skills: `skills/<id>/SKILL.md`
   - Agents: `agents/<id>.md`
   - Teams: `teams/<id>.md`
2. Choose a metaphor type:

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add pjt222/agent-almanac/create-glyph@sha256:4a143181accec68a

The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0, 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.
