This skill should be used when the user asks for a publication-quality scientific figure or table, wants help choosing the right chart for results, needs a paper-ready pubfig or pubtab workflow, wants a figure + companion table for a results section, wants an Excel sheet turned into publication-ready LaTeX, or wants an existing scientific figure/table reviewed and upgraded.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'publication-chart-skill' ~/.claude/skills/'publication-chart-skill' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
