paper-framework-figure-studio-pro

name paper-framework-figure-studio-pro description Use when planning a source-grounded method overview, architecture, pipeline, system/data-flow, mechanism, or agent-workflow figure for a CS or deep-learning paper. Produces an editable figure brief before image generation or manual redrawing; not for plots, tables, or general prose. license MIT Paper Framework Figure Studio Pro This is a lightweight local adapter inspired by c-narcissus/paper-framework-figure-studio-pro . It keeps the useful paper-grounded S0-S5 co-design flow while avoiding the upstream package's heavy asset vendoring, mandatory checkpoint zip behavior, and fixed personal response rules. Default Boundaries Work in conversation by default. Do not create project files, reports, checkpoints, generated images, or restore bundles unless the user explicitly asks for them. Treat image generation as opt-in. S2 and S5 are planning handoff stages unless the user explicitly asks to generate images. Keep the workflow human-in-the-loop. Execute at most one public stage per response unless the user explicitly requests a compact text-only bundle such as "do S0/S1 together." Stop after S5. The human chooses the final candidate, performs manual redrawing/editing, and decides final caption and paper placement. Route final plot/table polish, Matplotlib/LaTeX edits, captions, and rendered validation to $paper-visual-craft . Input Discipline Before designing the figure, identify the available evidence: Paper source: PDF, LaTeX, abstract/method text, notes, or user summary. Target role: method overview, architecture, pipeline, data flow, mechanism, or agent workflow. Venue/style constraints: CVPR/ICCV/ECCV/NeurIPS/ICLR/ICML/CoRL, double column, grayscale safety, line-art preference, space budget. Existing visuals: reference figures, current draft figure, or explicit instruction not to inspect an existing paper diagram. User constraints: must-show modules, forbidden claims, terminology, symbols, and whether image generation is allowed. If inputs are incomplete, state the assumptions and ask only for missing facts that materially affect the diagram contract. Do not invent paper modules, symbols, arrows, metrics, or evidence. Local S0-S5 Workflow Use references/workflow.md when a task needs the full staged process. S0 Paper foundation : inventory sources, extract core modules, terms, equations/symbols, data/control/model flow, evidence anchors, and ambiguity risks. S1 Figure strategy : define the reader question, figure type, story path, semantic graph, visible text budget, style family, and source-grounded prompt contract. S2 Sketch exploration : only if explicitly requested, generate or describe first-round candidate directions. Default to text-only candidate briefs. S3 Direction select : compare candidates against the source contract and user preference; record what to keep, avoid, simplify, or repair. S4 Formal candidate brief : prepare the final candidate matrix or image prompts with strict source-fidelity, symbol, connector, and density rules. S5 Candidate image : only if explicitly requested, generate final raster candidates. Otherwise hand off prompt packages or a manual-redraw brief. For ordinary requests, start with S0/S1 and return a concise figure brief rather than a full staged dossier. Source-Faithful Figure Contract Every visible entity, label, symbol, connector, and visual metaphor must be: directly supported by the paper/user material, or explicitly marked as an inference with the reasoning chain, or marked unsupported and excluded from the figure. Use these checks before proposing prompts or candidates: Do arrows have evidence for both source and target semantics? Are variables, metrics, weights, losses, or thresholds shown as edge/port/tag information instead of peer modules when appropriate? Does one symbol/color/line style mean exactly one thing? Is the diagram explaining the paper's actual contribution rather than a generic architecture pattern? Can dense details move to caption, legend, or prose without weakening the first-glance story? If the contract is not supportable, stop at the risk register and ask for the missing paper detail or user decision. Default Output Unless the user requested files or images, answer in conversation with: figure role reader question source-backed core modules semantic flow visible text contract style / surface recommendation must-include / must-exclude risks or unsupported parts candidate directions next action Use templates/figure-brief-template.md when the user asks for a structured brief or when a worker needs a handoff. Reference Routing Read references/source-map.md before discussing provenance, upstream licensing, or vault updates. Read references/workflow.md before running a full S0-S5 planning session. Use templates/figure-brief-template.md for reusable handoff briefs.
