Description
matplotlib is an agent skill for creating and customising scientific plots with Matplotlib, Python's foundational visualisation library. It covers the pyplot interface and the object-oriented Figure and Axes API, and it gives guidance on producing publication-quality figures. Use it for any type of plot or chart, such as line, scatter, bar, histogram, heatmap and contour plots, for statistical visualisations, and for controlling colours, styles, labels and legends. It also covers multi-panel figures with subplots, export to formats such as PNG, PDF and SVG, interactive plots and animations, three-dimensional visualisations, and plots inside Jupyter notebooks or graphical applications. The skill is for anyone making figures for a paper, a report or a presentation who wants precise control over each element of the plot. It is part of the k-dense-ai scientific agent skills repository on GitHub, which has about 49,600 stars. The listing shows it as free, and it has about 2,100 installs. Its security audits show passes from Gen Agent Trust Hub, Socket and Snyk. Install it with npx skills add https://github.com/k-dense-ai/scientific-agent-skills --skill matplotlib.…
