This Skill addresses the pain point for researchers who struggle with creating illustrations after finishing their papers. In academic writing, researchers often spend significant time producing professional figures such as network architecture diagrams, signal processing flowcharts, and anatomical structure diagrams. However, a lack of design tools or drawing skills often leads to inconsistent illustration quality.
Using it is simple: just upload your paper (in PDF/DOCX/TXT format), and the AI will automatically analyze the content to generate illustration description prompts. After confirmation, high-quality illustrations are generated with one click. It supports multiple resolutions (1K/2K/4K), various aspect ratios (16:9, 4:3, 1:1), and offers 50+ preset academic color schemes (including colorblind-friendly options). It also supports secondary editing based on existing images and text instructions, with real-time progress updates throughout the process.
It is ideal for academic researchers and university students who frequently publish papers, especially teams or individuals who have completed their writing but are hindered by illustration tasks. It can be deployed locally to protect privacy-sensitive data, eliminating the need to upload to third-party platforms.
We recommend using this tool consistently during the illustration phase of paper writing to significantly improve efficiency. Note that it primarily relies on the Claude Agent SDK for prompt generation and external image generation APIs (NanoBanana/Gemini). Generation speed is subject to API response times, and it requires a Python 3.12+ and Node.js 18+ environment.
Key Features
Unlike general-purpose AI drawing tools (e.g., Midjourney), it is specifically designed for academic scenarios. It automatically analyzes paper content to generate professional illustration prompts, supports multiple resolutions and academic color schemes, and can be deployed locally to protect data privacy. In contrast, Midjourney requires manual prompt writing and cannot directly associate prompts with paper content.
Limitations
Requires Python 3.12+ and Node.js 18+ environment. Depends on Claude Agent SDK and external image generation APIs (NanoBanana/Gemini). Image generation speed is limited by API response times, and output quality depends on the selected AI model.
FAQ
Does it support Chinese papers?
Yes, it supports Chinese papers. Upload Chinese PDF/DOCX/TXT files, and the AI can analyze the Chinese content to generate illustration descriptions.
Who owns the copyright of the generated images?
The images are AI-generated, and the copyright belongs to the user. They can be used for academic paper publication, but proper citation of the AI tool is required.
