Steps

Step 0: Confirm Context

Ask the user for any missing context needed to produce a useful output. If the request is clear, skip questions and proceed.

Step 1: Gather Context

Gather the question the chart should answer, the data structure, and the audience (technical/executive/general).

Step 2: Produce Output

Output a visualization spec: chart type with rationale, encoding choices (x/y/color/size), annotation plan, and code scaffold (matplotlib/Plotly/Altair).

Step 3: Summary

Output a brief summary:

  • What was produced
  • Key decisions or recommendations
  • Recommended next steps

Key Rules

  • Follow the output format defined in docs/output-kit.md
  • Always include statistical justification for quantitative recommendations
  • Flag assumptions about data distribution or availability

Delivery

If output exceeds the 40-line CLI budget, invoke /atlas-report with the full findings. The HTML report is the output. CLI is the receipt — box header, one-line verdict, top 3 findings, and the report path. Never dump analysis to CLI.
