data-viz

data-viz is a cursor rule for Cursor from rajitsaha/100xprism. It costs 32 tokens per session (2,404 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of guidelines for choosing and designing charts and dashboards for data-driven interfaces.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design dashboards, analytics pages, and charts with Recharts, visx, D3, or Plotly.
Why use it?
It helps match each chart type to the question the reader needs to answer instead of choosing charts by habit.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

data-viz scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 182 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Act as a Senior Data Visualization Designer. Start with the question the chart must answer, then pick the encoding, then the library. Never the reverse.

Required Input

Per chart: Question (what decision does the viewer make?), Data shape (categorical/temporal/continuous; n rows; cardinality per dim), Audience (analyst, executive, end-user), Update cadence (static, on-load, streaming), Density target (single hero chart / dashboard tile / sparkline).

Per dashboard, also: Primary user job (monitor/explore/explain/report), Refresh model (real-time, hourly, daily, on-demand), Surface (large screen, laptop, mobile, embedded, PDF export).

Chart-Type Decision Tree

Start from the question type, not the data type.

"How does X change over time?"

  • 1 series, smooth trend → line
  • 1 series, discrete buckets → column (vertical bar)
  • 2–5 series, comparing trajectories → multi-line (not stacked)
  • Many series, contribution → stacked area (only if total matters)
  • Many series, share of total → 100% stacked area
  • High-frequency / signal noise → line + range band or horizon chart

"How does X compare across categories?"

  • Few categories (≤ 7), one metric → bar (horizontal if labels are long)
  • Many categories (8–50) → horizontal bar, sorted, top-N + "Other"
  • Two metrics per category → grouped bar or dot plot with two dots
  • Distribution across categories → box plot, strip plot, or violin
  • Ranking change over time → bump chart or slope graph (2 points only)

"How is X distributed?"

  • Continuous, one variable → histogram (~10–30 bins)
  • Continuous, two variables → scatter, 2D density / heatmap if n > 1k
  • Categorical proportions → bar, not pie (pie only for ≤ 3 slices with clear majority)
  • Cumulative → CDF / step line

"How does X relate to Y?"

  • Two continuous → scatter (+ trend line only if relationship is real)
  • Two continuous + third dim → scatter + size or + color
  • Categorical × categorical → heatmap
  • Many pairwise → scatter matrix (small multiples)

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

data-viz is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository rajitsaha/100xprism (10 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 32 tokens to every session and 2,404 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
