Creates and audits truthful, accessible, publication-ready scientific figures with Matplotlib, Seaborn, or Plotly. Use it for figure design, multi-panel layouts, uncertainty and missing-data displays, color/contrast review, image metadata validation, and journal export planning.
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
# Scientific Visualization Build figures that preserve scientific meaning before optimizing appearance. Separate universal principles from dated publisher rules, preserve raw data and transformations, use color redundantly, and inspect delivered files rather than trusting plotting defaults. ## Non-negotiable guardrails - Never alter, hide, invent, or selectively enhance data to improve a figure. - Preserve raw tables/images, exclusions, missing-value codes, analysis code, normalization, binning, image adjustments, and random seeds. - Do not infer journal requirements. Identify the exact journal, article type, figure type, and submission phase; verify its live official guidance. - Do not claim that a palette, DPI value, format, or automated report makes a figure accessible or journal-compliant. - Do not silently connect missing observations, suppress inconvenient points, upsample images as if detail increased, or tune axes/dual axes to exaggerate a conclusion. - Keep interactive and static outputs as distinct deliverables. Interactive hover is not a substitute for labels, alt text, keyboard access, an accessible data table, or a static fallback. …

How to install
mdr add k-dense-ai/scientific-agent-skills/scientific-visualization@sha256:8cbde7cdc10d959cThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.4, 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.
