# Infographics
## Overview
Infographics are visual representations of information, data, or knowledge designed to present complex content quickly and clearly. **This skill uses Nano Banana Pro AI for infographic generation with Gemini 3 Pro quality review and Perplexity Sonar for research.**
**How it works:**
- (Optional) **Research phase**: Gather accurate facts and statistics using Perplexity Sonar
- Describe your infographic in natural language
- Nano Banana Pro generates publication-quality infographics automatically
- **Gemini 3 Pro reviews quality** against document-type thresholds
- **Smart iteration**: Only regenerates if quality is below threshold
- Professional-ready output in minutes
- No design skills required
**Quality Thresholds by Document Type:**
| Document Type | Threshold | Description |
|---------------|-----------|-------------|
| marketing | 8.5/10 | Marketing materials - must be compelling |
| report | 8.0/10 | Business reports - professional quality |
| presentation | 7.5/10 | Slides, talks - clear and engaging |
| social | 7.0/10 | Social media content |
| internal | 7.0/10 | Internal use |
| draft | 6.5/10 | Working drafts |
| default | 7.5/10 | General purpose |
**Simply describe what you want, and Nano Banana Pro creates it.**
## Quick Start
Generate any infographic by simply describing it:
```bash
# Generate a list infographic (default threshold 7.5/10)
python skills/infographics/scripts/generate_infographic.py \
"5 benefits of regular exercise" \
-o figures/exercise_benefits.png --type list
# Generate for marketing (highest threshold: 8.5/10)
python skills/infographics/scripts/generate_infographic.py \
"Product features comparison" \
-o figures/product_comparison.png --type comparison --doc-type marketing
# Generate with corporate style
python skills/infographics/scripts/generate_infographic.py \
"Company milestones 2010-2025" \
-o figures/timeline.png --type timeline --style corporate
# Generate with colorblind-safe palette
python skills/infographics/scripts/generate_infographic.py \
"Heart disease statistics worldwide" \
-o figures/health_stats.png --type statistical --palette wong
# Generate WITH RESEARCH for accurate, up-to-date data
python skills/infographics/scripts/generate_infographic.py \
"Global AI market size and growth projections" \
-o figures/ai_market.png --type statistical --research
```
**What happens behind the scenes:**
1. **(Optional) Research**: Perplexity Sonar gathers accurate facts, statistics, and data
2. **Generation 1**: Nano Banana Pro creates initial infographic following design best practices
3. **Review 1**: **Gemini 3 Pro** evaluates quality against document-type threshold
4. **Decision**: If quality >= threshold → **DONE** (no more iterations needed!)
5. **If below threshold**: Improved prompt based on critique, regenerate
6. **Repeat**: Until quality meets threshold OR max iterations reached
**Smart Iteration Benefits:**
- ✅ Saves API calls if first generation is good enough
- ✅ Higher quality standards for marketing materials
- ✅ Faster turnaround for drafts/internal use
- ✅ Appropriate quality for each use case
**Output**: Versioned images plus a detailed review log with quality scores, critiques, and early-stop information.
## When to Use This Skill
Use the **infographics** skill when:
- Presenting data or statistics in a visual format
- Creating timeline visualizations for project milestones or history
- Explaining processes, workflows, or step-by-step guides
- Comparing options, products, or concepts side-by-side
- Summarizing key points in an engaging visual format
- Creating geographic or map-based data visualizations
- Building hierarchical or organizational charts
- Designing social media content or marketing materials
**Use scientific-schematics instead for:**
- Technical flowcharts and circuit diagrams
- Biological pathways and molecular diagrams
- Neural network architecture diagrams
- CONSORT/PRISMA methodology diagrams

## Research Integration
### Automatic Data Gathering (`--research`)
When creating infographics that require accurate, up-to-date data, use the `--research` flag to automatically gather facts and statistics using **Perplexity Sonar Pro**.
```bash
# Research and generate statistical infographic
python skills/infographics/scripts/generate_infographic.py \
"Global renewable energy adoption rates by country" \
-o figures/renewable_energy.png --type statistical --research
# Research for timeline infographic
python skills/infographics/scripts/generate_infographic.py \
"History of artificial intelligence breakthroughs" \
-o figures/ai_history.png --type timeline --research
# Research for comparison infographic
python skills/infographics/scripts/generate_infographic.py \
"Electric vehicles vs hydrogen vehicles comparison" \
-o figures/ev_hydrogen.png --type comparison --research
```
### What Research Provides
The research phase automatically:
1. **Gathers Key Facts**: 5-8 relevant facts and statistics about the topic
2. **Provides Context**: Background information for accurate representation
3. **Finds Data Points**: Specific numbers, percentages, and dates
4. **Cites Sources**: Mentions major studies or sources
5. **Prioritizes Recency**: Focuses on 2023-2026 information
### When to Use Research
**Enable research (`--research`) for:**
- Statistical infographics requiring accurate numbers
- Market data, industry statistics, or trends
- Scientific or medical information
- Current events or recent developments
- Any topic where accuracy is critical
**Skip research for:**
- Simple conceptual infographics
- Internal process documentation
- Topics where you provide all the data in the prompt
- Speed-critical generation
### Research Output
When research is enabled, additional files are created:
- `{name}_research.json` - Raw research data and sources
- Research content is automatically incorporated into the infographic prompt

## InfograpHow to use the Adaptyv Bio Foundry API and Python SDK for protein experiment design, submission, and results retrieval. Use this skill whenever the user mentions Adaptyv, Foundry API, protein binding assays, protein screening experiments, BLI/SPR assays, thermostability assays, or wants to submit protein sequences for experimental characterization. Also trigger when code imports `adaptyv`, `adaptyv_sdk`, or `FoundryClient`, or references `foundry-api-public.adaptyvbio.com`.
This skill should be used for time series machine learning tasks including classification, regression, clustering, forecasting, anomaly detection, segmentation, and similarity search. Use when working with temporal data, sequential patterns, or time-indexed observations requiring specialized algorithms beyond standard ML approaches. Particularly suited for univariate and multivariate time series analysis with scikit-learn compatible APIs.
Data structure for annotated matrices in single-cell analysis. Use when working with .h5ad files or integrating with the scverse ecosystem. This is the data format skill—for analysis workflows use scanpy; for probabilistic models use scvi-tools; for population-scale queries use cellxgene-census.
Infer gene regulatory networks (GRNs) from gene expression data using scalable algorithms (GRNBoost2, GENIE3). Use when analyzing transcriptomics data (bulk RNA-seq, single-cell RNA-seq) to identify transcription factor-target gene relationships and regulatory interactions. Supports distributed computation for large-scale datasets.
Core Python library for astronomy and astrophysics workflows that need Astropy APIs, including units/quantities, coordinates, FITS I/O, tables, time systems, WCS, and cosmology. Use when implementing or debugging astronomical data analysis code with Astropy.
Observe the user's screen via screenpipe, detect repeated research workflows, match them against existing scientific-agent-skills, and draft new skills (or composition recipes that chain existing ones) for the patterns not yet covered. Use when the user asks to analyze their recent work and propose skills based on what they actually do. Requires the screenpipe daemon (https://github.com/screenpipe/screenpipe) running locally on port 3030 — the skill has no other data source and will refuse to run if screenpipe is unreachable. All detection runs locally; only redacted cluster summaries reach the LLM.
Benchling Python SDK and REST API integration for registry entities, inventory, ELN entries, workflows, Benchling Apps, and Data Warehouse queries. Use when automating lab data with benchling-sdk or the v2 API.
Search scientific papers and retrieve structured experimental data extracted from full-text studies via the BGPT MCP server. Returns 25+ fields per paper including methods, results, sample sizes, quality scores, and conclusions. Use for literature reviews, evidence synthesis, and finding experimental details not available in abstracts alone.
