What it does
Paper Illustration Image2 is an agent skill from AI4Scientist/nano-scientist. Generate publication-quality academic illustrations through a local Codex app-server bridge that uses Codex native image generation. This is a separate experimental alternative to paper-illustration, intended for Claude Code users who want a GPT-image-style renderer without modifying the original skill.
Its SKILL.md is about 3.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Media & Creative, covering Image generation and Data visualization. The repository describes itself as: An autonomous research agent that turns a topic into a peer-reviewed technical report.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Image generation
- Tasks that involve Data visualization
Example prompts
- “/paper-illustration-image2”
Requirements
- Python 3
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash(*), Read, Write, Edit, Grep, Glob, Agent, WebSearch, mcp__codex-image2__generate, mcp__codex-image2__generate_start, mcp__codex-image2__generate_status, mcp__codex__codex, mcp__codex__codex-reply
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7132192. 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(*)ReadWriteEditGrepGlobAgentWebSearchmcp__codex-image2__generatemcp__codex-image2__generate_start
…and 3 more on the same allowed-tools line.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
python3make
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
Paper Illustration Image2 loads about 3.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 83 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,133 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: 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, Edit, Grep, Glob, Agent, WebSearch, mcp__codex-image2__generate, mcp__codex-im
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
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,133 words (~3,923 tokens).
“Generate publication-quality paper figures using Claude as the planner/reviewer and a local Codex app-server MCP bridge as the raster renderer.”
