Qinyan Nature Figures is an agent skill from LeonChaoX/qinyan-academic-skills. 面向 Nature Portfolio 与高影响力期刊的证据驱动科研绘图技能。用于从原始或汇总数据设计单图与多面板 figure、选择合适图形语法、编写 Python/R 绘图代码、重绘现有图件、生成机制示意图草案、撰写图注并导出可编辑 SVG/PDF 与高分辨率 TIFF/PNG;同时检查数据完整性、颜色可访问性、统计标注和最终尺寸可读性。触发场景包括 Nature 绘图、科研作图、论文配图、scientific figure、publication plot、multi-panel figure、graphical abstract、机制图、图形摘要和 figure audit。
Its SKILL.md is about 600 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 8 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `references/chart-selection.md` and `references/figure-contract.md`).
It sits in Research & Science, covering Data visualization. It works with Python. The repository describes itself as: A curated, multilingual library of 182 installable AI agent skills for end-to-end academic research—spanning literature discovery, scientific writing, grant development… The licence is MIT.
6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit df5a498. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
pythonFrom the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Qinyan Nature Figures loads about 600 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.9k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 79 tokens; SKILL.md has 93 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.
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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

绘图前写出:
Conclusion:读者看完图后应能复述的一句话。Evidence hierarchy:主证据、支持证据、对照与边界。Panel map:每个面板的任务、数据和与其他面板的关系。Data contract:变量、单位、独立样本、缺失、排除和变换规则。Statistics contract:估计量、误差、检验、校正、n 与配对/重复结构。Export contract:栏宽、目标尺寸、字体、矢量/栅格、分辨率和 source data。详细模板读取 references/figure-contract.md。
n、中心量、误差、检验、校正、符号和缩写,使图注可独立理解。python scripts/figure_preflight.py <source.py|source.R> --artifact <figure.svg> ...。视觉与导出标准读取 references/visual-standards.md。

Qinyan Nature Figures fits situations like: tasks that involve Data visualization.
Run `npx skills add LeonChaoX/qinyan-academic-skills --skill qinyan-nature-figures -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/沁言学术skills/qinyan-nature-figures in LeonChaoX/qinyan-academic-skills) into .claude/skills/qinyan-nature-figures in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add LeonChaoX/qinyan-academic-skills --skill qinyan-nature-figures -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/沁言学术skills/qinyan-nature-figures in LeonChaoX/qinyan-academic-skills) into .agents/skills/qinyan-nature-figures in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add LeonChaoX/qinyan-academic-skills --skill qinyan-nature-figures -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/qinyan-nature-figures, .gemini/skills/qinyan-nature-figures, .github/skills/qinyan-nature-figures and .opencode/skills/qinyan-nature-figures in your project.
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Qinyan Nature Figures needs Python for the scripts in its folder and the command-line tools its instructions call (python). Our summary lists: Python 3.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.
Qinyan Nature Figures is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 600 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2.4k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 1.3k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Qinyan Nature Figures: Nature-Style Scientific Figures (Yuan1z0825/nature-skills, 47k stars), deepTools NGS Toolkit (davila7/claude-code-templates, 33k stars), FBA Flux Analyzer (aiming-lab/AutoResearchClaw, 15k stars) and MathModel Figure Templates (jihe520/MathModelAgent, 6.2k stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
