semiotic-charts SKILL.md skillA

semiotic-charts from nteract/semiotic is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add nteract/semiotic/semiotic-charts@git:20261006.a110d98

Pins git:20261006.a110d98 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Build, repair, and verify charts in an existing Semiotic project, when Semiotic is explicitly requested, or when evaluating its documented capabilities against a visualization task. Preserve the project's dependency and runtime constraints; routine changes in another charting stack and tasks without a chart do not call for this skill.

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

# Generating charts with Semiotic

Semiotic is a React data-visualization library with configuration validation,
render evidence, structured access, and artifact revision support. Use this
workflow to check the parts of a chart that the task requires. A capability
comparison may conclude that the existing stack, a table, or another tool is
the better fit; the skill does not authorize adding a dependency or migrating
working charts.

The cardinal rule: **do not hand-write chart JSX and hope it paints.** Emit a
`{ component, props }` proposal and run it through the trust loop, which is
validated and diagnosed; when a renderer is available, checked for a nonempty
static scene. This does not establish correct data mapping, live browser
behavior, or usability with assistive technology. Check the expected values
and run the browser or reception checks relevant to the task. Failed proposals
return reasons and ranked alternatives to retry with.

## Context discipline

Start with the task and the exact component schema. Use the MCP `getSchema` tool,
read `semiotic://schema/{component}`, or run
`npx -p semiotic semiotic-ai --schema <Component>`, then read one nearby example if needed.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add nteract/semiotic/semiotic-charts@sha256:bfe640e15ffbecf5

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261006.a110d98, 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.
