## Usage
```bash
/baoyu-infographic path/to/content.md
/baoyu-infographic path/to/content.md --layout hierarchical-layers --style technical-schematic
/baoyu-infographic path/to/content.md --aspect portrait --lang zh
/baoyu-infographic # then paste content
```

## Output Structure
```
infographic/{topic-slug}/
├── source-{slug}.{ext}
├── analysis.md
├── structured-content.md
├── prompts/infographic.md
└── infographic.png
```
Slug: 2-4 words kebab-case from topic. Conflict: append `-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS`.
## Core Principles
- Preserve all source data **verbatim**—no summarization or rephrasing
- Define learning objectives before structuring content
- Structure for visual communication (headlines, labels, visual elements)
## Workflow
### Step 1: Setup & Analyze
**1.1 Load Preferences (EXTEND.md)**
Use Bash to check EXTEND.md existence (priority order):
```bash
# Check project-level first
test -f .baoyu-skills/baoyu-infographic/EXTEND.md && echo "project"
# Then user-level (cross-platform: $HOME works on macOS/Linux/WSL)
test -f "$HOME/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-infographic/EXTEND.md" && echo "user"
```
┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────┬───────────────────┐
│ Path │ Location │
├────────────────────────────────────────────────────┼───────────────────┤
│ .baoyu-skills/baoyu-infographic/EXTEND.md │ Project directory │
├────────────────────────────────────────────────────┼───────────────────┤
│ $HOME/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-infographic/EXTEND.md │ User home │
└────────────────────────────────────────────────────┴───────────────────┘
┌───────────┬───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Result │ Action │
├───────────┼───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Found │ Read, parse, display summary │
├───────────┼───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Not found │ Ask user with AskUserQuestion (see references/config/first-time-setup.md) │
└───────────┴───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
**EXTEND.md Supports**: Preferred layout/style | Default aspect ratio | Custom style definitions | Language preference
Schema: `references/config/preferences-schema.md`
**1.2 Analyze Content → `analysis.md`**
1. Save source content (file path or paste → `source.md`)
- **Backup rule**: If `source.md` exists, rename to `source-backup-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.md`
2. Analyze: topic, data type, complexity, tone, audience
3. Detect source language and user language
4. Extract design instructions from user input
5. Save analysis
- **Backup rule**: If `analysis.md` exists, rename to `analysis-backup-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.md`
See `references/analysis-framework.md` for detailed format.
### Step 2: Generate Structured Content → `structured-content.md`
Transform content into infographic structure:
1. Title and learning objectives
2. Sections with: key concept, content (verbatim), visual element, text labels
3. Data points (all statistics/quotes copied exactly)
4. Design instructions from user
**Rules**: Markdown only. No new information. All data verbatim.
See `references/structured-content-template.md` for detailed format.
### Step 3: Recommend Combinations
Recommend 3-5 layout×style combinations based on:
- Data structure → matching layout
- Content tone → matching style
- Audience expectations
- User design instructions
### Step 4: Confirm Options
Use **single AskUserQuestion call** with multiple questions to confirm all options together:
| Question | When | Options |
|----------|------|---------|
| **Combination** | Always | 3+ layout×style combos with rationale |
| **Aspect** | Always | landscape (16:9), portrait (9:16), square (1:1) |
| **Language** | Only if source ≠ user language | Language for text content |
**Important**: Do NOT split into separate AskUserQuestion calls. Combine all applicable questions into one call.
### Step 5: Generate Prompt → `prompts/infographic.md`
**Backup rule**: If `prompts/infographic.md` exists, rename to `prompts/infographic-backup-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.md`
Combine:
1. Layout definition from `references/layouts/<layout>.md`
2. Style definition from `references/styles/<style>.md`
3. Base template from `references/base-prompt.md`
4. Structured content from Step 2
5. All text in confirmed language
### Step 6: Generate Image
1. Select available image generation skill (ask user if multiple)
2. **Check for existing file**: Before generating, check if `infographic.png` exists
- If exists: Rename to `infographic-backup-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.png`
3. Call with prompt file and output path
4. On failure, auto-retry once
### Step 7: Output Summary
Report: topic, layout, style, aspect, language, output path, files created.
