Turn research ideas, paper methods, grant roadmaps, experimental workflows, or model architectures into publication-ready scientific figures. Use when the user asks to draw, illustrate, or visualize a scientific concept, mechanism, pathway, workflow, graphical abstract, or technical roadmap. Helps structure the figure, write a high-quality generation prompt, and produce a draft via the agent's built-in image generation or a configured image API. For editable SVG/PPTX export, layered vectors…

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

# SciFig Scientific Figure Skill

A lightweight workflow skill for producing **scientific figures** inside an agent
session. It does not replace the full [SciFig](https://scifig.ai/?ref=github-skill)
platform — it is the agent-side entry point: understand the scientific goal,
structure the figure, write a strong prompt, and generate a first draft.

## When to use

Trigger this skill when the user wants to create any of:

- Graphical abstracts, TOC graphics, journal cover art
- Mechanism / pathway / signaling diagrams
- Method or experimental workflow figures
- Grant technical roadmaps and research framework diagrams
- Model architecture, data pipeline, or system diagrams
- Cross-sections, micro-structures, and anatomical schematics

## Workflow

Follow these steps in order. **Do not skip straight to image generation** — the
quality of a scientific figure comes from structuring it first.

### 1. Clarify the scientific intent

Ask for (or infer from context) the missing essentials:

1. **Purpose** — paper figure, grant roadmap, defense slide, poster, teaching aid
2. **Aspect ratio** — 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, or a journal-specified size

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add lilingm963/scifig-ai-scientific-figure-skill/scifig-scientific-figure@sha256:65552102b51bb971

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260627.98b3b64, 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.
