academic-figure

academic-figure is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from bahayonghang/my-ai-cli-toolkit. It costs 225 tokens per session (1,195 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for creating, recommending, or reviewing academic charts and figures for data analysis, papers, theses, or journal submission requirements.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to recommend chart types, create figures from data, review uploaded figures, match a catalogue style, or prepare plots with tools such as Matplotlib, Seaborn, Plotly, or industrytslib.
Why use it?
It helps choose a suitable chart and produce figures that meet publication rules instead of relying on default plotting choices.

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

academic-figure 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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 15 executable files (scripts/academic_figure_pref.py, scripts/audit_pdf_text.py, scripts/bar_memevolve.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 106 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Academic Figure

Pick one mode before loading its reference or writing plotting code.

Replace <skill-dir> with the loaded skill directory. In Windows PowerShell, set $env:PYTHONUTF8 = '1' before UTF-8 Python commands.

Pick a mode

Input intent Mode Read
Journal/thesis target, generic 论文配图, or compliance review journal-spec references/modes/journal-spec.md
User data plus a named catalog style from-data references/modes/from-data.md
Uploaded paper figure, with no journal target from-image references/modes/from-image.md
Data in hand with the chart type still open, or a request for a chart recommendation (不知道用什么图) advise references/modes/advise.md

Resolve conflicts in order:

  1. An explicit journal target selects journal-spec; a style or image is visual reference only.
  2. If exact mimicry and journal compliance are both explicit, ask once which contract wins.
  3. If the chart type is open, and no catalog style or reference image is given, run advise first. Its hand-off then applies rule 1.

Output contracts

The selected row is authoritative.

Mode Required output behavior
journal-spec Vector-first PDF/SVG/EPS; target size, font, and DPI; colorblind-safe defaults; fonttype=42; every applicable QA item checked
from-data / from-image Matplotlib script and dpi=300 PNG; deliberately mimic the selected style or source; journal QA is not imposed by default
advise One recommended chart type with the reason and one or two alternates, every matched pitfall reported, and a named hand-off mode; advise draws no figure

What ships with it

57 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.

academic-figure is a skill published in the GitHub repository bahayonghang/my-ai-cli-toolkit (16 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 225 tokens to every session and 1,195 once invoked, about $0.0011 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 2026-08-30.
