nature-figure
nature figure
What it does
- python — matplotlib / seaborn.
- r — ggplot2 / patchwork / ComplexHeatmap.
- The static layer is versioned and reviewable. The backend gate is now explicit in the manifest rather than buried in prose.
- The router itself is short on purpose. Update fragments and references, not this file, when adding scope.
- This structure mirrors nature-writing, nature-polishing, nature-reader, and nature-paper2ppt.
Requirements & configuration
- The dynamic layer keeps each invocation cheap: only the selected backend's quick-start enters context, and the 2,600+ lines of reference depth load only when a step needs them.

nature-figure FAQ
What does the nature-figure skill do?
>- Create, revise, audit, and export submission-grade scientific figures for Nature-family and other high-impact venues in Python (matplotlib/seaborn) or R (ggplot2/patchwork/ComplexHeatmap), including multi-panel plots, figures4papers-style work, and journal-ready SVG/PDF/TIFF outputs. Use for paper or scientific plots, manuscript data visualization, 论文配图、学术写作配图、科研绘图、科研作图、画图、作图、出图、论文图表、可视化. Define the conclusion, evidence logic, data integrity, template compatibility, export needs, and reviewer risks before plotting; honor or persist the Python/R backend choice. Also use the separate OpenRouter GPT Image 2 route for explicit AI-generated graphical abstracts, mechanism diagrams, concept schematics, 论文示意图、机制示意图、图形摘要; this route skips backend choice and treats outputs as drafts. Do not use for interactive dashboards, statistics-only analysis, data cleaning, literature review, code debugging, pure photo editing, or Illustrator/Figma-first infographics without manuscript-figure intent. python — matplotlib / seaborn. r — ggplot2 / patchwork / ComplexHeatmap.
