What it does

Figures Gallery is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills. Generates an HTML gallery of all project figures with captions and source notebooks. Use when reviewing figures.

Its SKILL.md is about 460 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: 🔬 A curated collection of 23,000+ agent skills for empirical research across 8 social science disciplines. | 精选 23,000+ AI Agent 技能库,覆盖8大社会科学学科的实证研究。CoPaper.AI…

When your agent uses it

  • Reviewing figures

Example prompts

  • “Use the figures-gallery skill to generate an HTML gallery of all project figures with captions and source notebooks”
  • “/figures-gallery”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, Write, Glob, Grep

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Scan images/ for all image files
  2. Scan all registered notebooks (from _quarto.yml) for cells with fig- labels
  3. Generate an HTML gallery page with
  4. Save the gallery to _manuscript/figures-gallery.html (the _manuscript/ directory is gitignored, so this output won't be committed).
  5. Report

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9fa87d8. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Bash
    • Read
    • Write
    • Glob
    • Grep

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Figures Gallery loads about 461 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 32 tokens; SKILL.md has 217 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~32
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~461

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Bash, Read, Write, Glob, Grep

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 217 words (~461 tokens).

“Create an HTML gallery page displaying all project figures with their captions and source notebooks.”
