Use this skill whenever the user wants to visualize neuroimaging analysis results, including 3D brain connectivity networks, atlas-based regional activation summaries, or FreeSurfer cortical surface meshes with anatomical colors. Triggers include: 'brain visualization', 'visualize connectome', '3D brain network', 'zALFF visualization', 'brain activation map', 'FreeSurfer PLY export', 'surface mesh rendering', or any request to turn neuroimaging outputs into interpretable figures or 3D models.

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

# Brain Visualization

## Overview

`brain-visualization` is the NeuroRuntime skill for turning processed neuroimaging outputs into publication-friendly figures and 3D assets.

It focuses on three common visualization tasks drawn from the methods demonstrated in the referenced rs-fMRI tutorial:
- 3D brain connectivity visualization from atlas coordinates and ROI-to-ROI connectivity matrices
- atlas-based brain region activation ranking and coordinate export from zALFF-like volumetric maps
- FreeSurfer cortical surface export to colored PLY meshes for downstream 3D rendering

This skill is intended for analysis outputs that already exist. It does not replace preprocessing or statistical modeling skills such as `fmri-skill`, `nilearn-tool`, `freesurfer-tool`, or `fsl-tool`.

## Agent Reference Rule

When implementing or adapting visualization workflows, the agent should first consult the curated reference snippets in `skills/brain-visualization/scripts/` instead of copying directly from the tutorial scripts with hard-coded paths.

Reference snippets available:
- `scripts/connectome_reference.py` -> atlas coordinate extraction + strongest-edge connectome plotting

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add cuhk-aim-group/neurodiscovery/brain-visualization@sha256:23d7eceb7c583c85

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261023.f74c2bd, 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.
