What it does
Plotnine is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills. plotnine static visualization (ggplot2 syntax for Python). Geoms, aesthetics, scales, coordinates, facets, themes. Use for static publication-quality figures with grammar-of-graphics syntax. For interactive charts use plotly; for maps use geopandas.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including reference files (for example `references/aesthetics.md`, `references/facets-themes.md` and `references/geoms.md`).
It sits in Data & Analytics, covering Data visualization and Geospatial analysis. It works with Python and Plotly. 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
- Static publication-quality figures with grammar-of-graphics syntax
- Tasks that involve Data visualization
- Tasks that involve Geospatial analysis
Example prompts
- “/plotnine”
Requirements
- Python 3
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Write plot code to scripts/stage8_analysis/{step}_{plot-name}.py
- Execute via Bash with automatic output capture wrapper script
- Validation results get automatically embedded in scripts as comments
- If failed, create versioned copy for fixes
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 nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are python).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
plotnine.org
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
Plotnine loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs, and up to ~9.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 459 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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 passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
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 459 words (~1,506 tokens).
“plotnine static visualization library for Python, implementing the grammar of graphics (ggplot2 syntax). Covers geoms (point, line, bar, histogram, boxplot, smooth), aesthetics, scales, coordinates, facets, and themes. Use when creating static publication-quality figures with ggplot2-style syntax, producing charts for print…”
