name: baoyu-infographic description: Generate professional infographics with 21 layout types and 22 visual styles. Analyzes content, recommends layout×style combinations, and generates publication-ready infographics. Use when user asks to create "infographic", "信息图", "visual summary", "可视化", or "高密度信息大图". version: 1.58.0 metadata: openclaw: homepage: https://github.com/JimLiu/baoyu-skills#baoyu-infographic
Infographic Generator
Two dimensions: layout (information structure) × style (visual aesthetics). Freely combine any layout with any style.
User Input Tools
When this skill prompts the user, follow this tool-selection rule (priority order):
1. Prefer built-in user-input tools exposed by the current agent runtime — e.g., AskUserQuestion, request_user_input, clarify, ask_user, or any equivalent.
2. Fallback: if no such tool exists, emit a numbered plain-text message and ask the user to reply with the chosen number/answer for each question.
3. Batching: if the tool supports multiple questions per call, combine all applicable questions into a single call; if only single-question, ask them one at a time in priority order.
Concrete AskUserQuestion references below are examples — substitute the local equivalent in other runtimes.
Image Generation Tools
When this skill needs to render an image, resolve the backend in this order:
1. Current-request override — if the user names a specific backend in the current message, use it.
2. Saved preference — if EXTEND.md sets preferred_image_backend to a backend available right now, use it.
3. Auto-select (when the preference is auto, unset, or the pinned backend isn't available):
- If the current runtime exposes a native image tool (e.g., Codex imagegen, Hermes image_generate), use it. Runtime-native tools are preferred by default — agents that know their own tool inventory should surface the native one here.
- Otherwise, if exactly one non-native backend is installed (e.g., baoyu-imagine), use it.
- Otherwise (multiple non-native backends with no runtime-native tool), ask the user once — batch with any other initial questions.
4. If none are available, tell the user and ask how to proceed.
Setting preferred_image_backend: ask forces the step-3 prompt every run regardless of available backends. Users change the pinned backend via the ## Changing Preferences section below.
Prompt file requirement (hard): write each image's full, final prompt to a standalone file under prompts/ (naming: NN-{type}-[slug].md) BEFORE invoking any backend. The backend receives the prompt file (or its content); the file is the reproducibility record and lets you switch backends without regenerating prompts.
Concrete tool names (imagegen, image_generate, baoyu-imagine) above are examples — substitute the local equivalents under the same rule.
Reference Images
Users may supply reference images to guide style, palette, composition, or subject.
Intake: Accept via --ref or when the user provides file paths / pastes images in conversation.
refs/NN-ref-{slug}.{ext} alongside the outputUsage modes (per reference):
| Usage | Effect |
|-------|--------|
| direct | Pass the file to the backend as a reference image |
| style | Extract style traits (line treatment, texture, mood) and append to the prompt body |
| palette | Extract hex colors from the image and append to the prompt body |
Record in prompts/infographic.md frontmatter when refs exist:
references:
- ref_id: 01
filename: 01-ref-brand.png
usage: direct
At generation time:
usage: direct AND the chosen backend accepts reference images (e.g., baoyu-imagine via --ref) → pass the file via the backend's ref parameterstyle/palette traits in the prompt textConfirmation Policy
Default behavior: confirm before generation.
EXTEND.md defaults, and the documented default combination as recommendation inputs only. None of them authorizes skipping confirmation.--no-confirm, "直接生成", "不用确认", "跳过确认", "按默认出图", or equivalent wording.Options

| --lang | en, zh, ja, etc. |
| --no-confirm | Skip Step 4 only when the user explicitly requests direct generation without confirmation |
| --ref | Reference images (file paths) for style / palette / composition / subject guidance |
