# PaperBanana

PaperBanana is an advanced agentic framework designed to automate the creation of high-quality, publication-ready academic illustrations. It employs a multi-agent architecture to retrieve data, plan visualizations, style figures, and critique the output, ensuring adherence to strict academic standards.

## When to Use This Skill
- You need to generate methodology diagrams from text descriptions.
- You want to create statistical plots (e.g., bar charts, line graphs, scatter plots) that meet academic publication standards.
- You need to refine existing figures for better clarity, aesthetics, or faithfulness to the data.

## Core Capabilities
1.  **Multi-Agent Orchestration**: Coordinates specialized agents (Retriever, Planner, Stylist, Visualizer, Critic) to handle complex illustration tasks.
2.  **Methodology Diagrams**: Generates flowcharts and system architecture diagrams.
3.  **Statistical Plots**: Produces high-quality plots for data visualization.
4.  **Iterative Refinement**: Uses a critic agent to review and improve figures based on academic criteria.

## Workflow
1.  **Input**: Provide a description of the figure or data to be visualized.
2.  **Planning**: The Planner agent breaks down the request into actionable steps.
3.  **Generation**: The Visualizer and Stylist agents create the initial draft.
4.  **Critique & Refine**: The Critic agent reviews the output, and the system iteratively improves it.
5.  **Output**: A high-resolution image file ready for inclusion in a manuscript.
