Tikz Figure Code

What it does

When your agent uses it

• : 写/审 TikZ 或 LaTeX 图代码、修图的排版/对齐/溢出/箭头问题、 tikz layout、latex figure code、tikz 编译报错、CJK 中文图渲染成色块
• Tasks that involve LaTeX
• Tasks that involve Essays and academic help

Example prompts

• “/tikz-figure-code”

Requirements

• A Bash shell

Workflow steps

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

1. 1盲写：你写到第 800 行时不知道渲染出来什么样，碰撞/溢出/箭头不贴框只能编译后看图才发现 → 被迫进昂贵的"渲染→审查→修"循环。
2. 2编辑即崩：同一个间距/中心被手抄在多处（zone 边界、内容中心、箭头坐标、底栏…）。改一个 stage 宽度要同步 5 处，漏一处就崩——而静态 checker 抓不到（实测：一个加宽 hero 的编辑把 zone 压重叠、边框切穿内容，validator +…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ffe6d07. 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

  Ships script files (Shell), which the agent can run.

  Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

  • node
  • bash

  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

Tikz Figure Code loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~67k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 70 tokens; SKILL.md has 316 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~70

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~1.2k

With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them

~67k

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

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.

description

写出高质量、一次过编译、编辑安全的 TikZ/LaTeX 配图代码的工程基础技能。 教 agent 用「按构造布局」(positioning/fit/chains/anchor) 而非「手填绝对坐标」， 附 8 条硬约束、canonical 箭头、before/after 范例、一个静态检查入口 (lint.sh)。 Use when: 写/审 TikZ 或 LaTeX 图代码、修图的排版/对齐/溢出/箭头问题、 tikz layout、latex figure code、tikz 编译报错、CJK 中文图渲染成色块。

\newlength{\stagew}\setlength{\stagew}{4.5cm}   % 改一处，全图跟着变
\def\gap{0.5cm}
\tikzset{node distance=\gap}

\node[zone] (s1) at (0,0) {};
\node[zone, right=of s1] (s2) {};      % ✅ 间距由 node distance 决定
\node[zone, right=of s2] (s3) {};      % 加宽 s2 → s3 自动右移
% ❌ \node[zone] (s2) at (5,0) {};      % 手填 5 = 改 s1 宽度就得改这里

\draw[arrow] (s1.east) -- (s2.west);   % ✅ 任何重排下都不会错位
% ❌ \draw[arrow] (4.5,5) -- (5.0,5);   % 把 zone 边界又抄了一遍 = 改布局就断

\node[fit=(a)(b)(c), draw, rounded corners] {};         % zone 自动包住内容
\node[box, text width=3.2cm, align=center] {长标签会换行不会溢出};
% ❌ minimum width=3.2cm → 长标签把框横向撑大、顶破 zone

\coordinate (c) at ($(first.north west)!0.5!(last.north east)$);
\node[anchor=south] at ($(c)+(0,0.5)$) {标题};   % 行变宽，标题自动跟着居中
