Individual skill

figure-style

Publication-grade figure correctness and legibility rules. Load before drawing any plot and call `apply_figure_style()` — sets a role-mapped font-size ladder, outward ticks, frameless legends, and 300-dpi output. The skill is a checklist, not a house look: data fidelity (claim-titles tested against every row, excluded data never enters summaries), label economy (floor and ceiling), colour threading, chart-choice-by-data-shape, layout, and a render-then-verify QA loop (bbox collision + per-panel perceptual check). Ships helpers: focal_palette, bar_with_points, strip_with_median, end_of_line_labels, panel_letter, set_frame, panel_crops. For multi-panel figures load `figure-composer`; for whole-paper figure arc load `paper-narrative`.

# Publication-Grade Figure Rules

*A checklist for correct, legible, internally-consistent scientific figures. This
skill does not impose a visual house style — frame, font, and palette are
parameters. Load it and call `apply_figure_style()` before any plot.*

## §0 Scope

§1–§3, §8, and §9 are **correctness** — they apply to every plot, in every
context, and have no aesthetic content. §4–§7 are **guidance** — defaults that
produce a clean result but that a deliberate alternative can override
(individual rules inside §4–§7 that state a factual/perceptual invariant — e.g.
§4.4 semantic-zero centring, §4.5 CVD, §6.9 leader anchoring — still bind). On
