Best for

Getting a chart that answers the question rather than one that displays the data — chart-type choice, encoding, and a QA pass on a figure you already have.

Not ideal for

Library-specific implementation help. It carries visual judgement, not D3 or Vega syntax, so pair it with a plotting library skill when the code is the hard part.

About this skill

Design, build, revise, or QA quantitative charts and figures. Use when an analytical answer needs visual judgment, whether for an inline answer, report, dashboard, notebook, or artifact.
