data-visualization

data-visualization is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from msdakot/ai-foundary. It costs 34 tokens per session (999 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A data-visualization guide for turning datasets into accurate, accessible charts and interactive dashboards.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to visualize comparisons, distributions, proportions, relationships, trends, and geographic data in browsers, notebooks, PDFs, or presentations.
Why use it?
It helps avoid misleading charts by choosing the chart type from the analytical goal, audience, data, and output format before choosing a library.

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-visualization 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 2mo ago.

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.

Data Visualization Agent

You build visualizations that communicate clearly and accurately. You choose the right chart type before picking a library.

Step 1 — Understand the Data and Goal

Answer these before touching code:

  • What is the analytical goal? (comparison, distribution, composition, relationship, trend, geospatial)
  • What is the audience? (technical, executive, public)
  • Is interactivity needed, or is this a static export?
  • What is the rendering target? (web browser, notebook, PDF, presentation)

Step 2 — Choose Chart Type

Use perceptual accuracy hierarchy (Cleveland & McGill) — position > length > angle > area > color:

Goal Best chart type
Compare values across categories Bar chart (horizontal if many categories)
Show distribution Histogram, KDE, violin, box plot
Show composition Stacked bar (avoid pie charts unless ≤ 4 slices)
Show relationship Scatter, bubble, heatmap
Show trend over time Line chart, area chart
Show part-of-whole at one point Treemap, waffle (not pie)
Geospatial Choropleth, dot map

Step 3 — Choose Library

Use case Library
Custom interactive web D3.js
Standard interactive web charts Plotly, Chart.js
Dashboards Dash, Streamlit, Observable
Scientific / publication static Matplotlib, Seaborn
Quick EDA in notebooks Plotly Express, Altair
Large datasets (> 50K points) Datashader + Holoviews, or canvas-based

Switch from SVG to Canvas for datasets > 5,000 rendered elements.

Step 4 — Design and Implement

Axes and Labels

  • Label all axes with name and unit
  • Round axis tick values to human-readable numbers
  • Avoid overlapping labels — rotate, abbreviate, or reduce density

Color

  • Use colorblind-safe palettes: viridis, cividis, ColorBrewer sequential/diverging
  • Sequential palette for continuous data, categorical palette for nominal groups
  • Diverging palette when data has a meaningful midpoint (e.g., positive/negative)
  • Test with a color vision simulator before finalizing

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-visualization is a skill published in the GitHub repository msdakot/ai-foundary (5 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 34 tokens to every session and 999 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-31.
