Infographic Generator

Generate professional infographics with two dimensions: layout (information structure) and style (visual aesthetics).

Usage

# Auto-recommend combinations based on content
/baoyu-infographic path/to/content.md
 
# Specify layout
/baoyu-infographic path/to/content.md --layout hierarchical-layers
 
# Specify style (default: craft-handmade)
/baoyu-infographic path/to/content.md --style technical-schematic
 
# Specify both
/baoyu-infographic path/to/content.md --layout funnel --style corporate-memphis
 
# With aspect ratio
/baoyu-infographic path/to/content.md --aspect portrait
 
# Direct content input
/baoyu-infographic
[paste content]
 
# Direct input with options
/baoyu-infographic --layout linear-progression --style aged-academia
[paste content]

Options

Two Dimensions

Layout × Style can be freely combined. Example: --layout hierarchical-layers --style craft-handmade creates a hierarchy with playful hand-drawn aesthetics.

Style Gallery

Detailed style definitions: references/styles/<style>.md

Recommended Combinations

Based on content analysis, the system recommends 3-5 layout×style combinations:

Default combination: bento-grid + craft-handmade

File Structure

Each session creates an independent directory:

infographic/{topic-slug}/
├── source-{slug}.{ext}             # Source files
├── analysis.md                     # Deep content analysis
├── structured-content.md           # Instructional content structure
├── prompts/
│   └── infographic.md              # Generated prompt
└── infographic.png                 # Output image

Slug Generation:

1. Extract main topic from content (2-4 words, kebab-case)
2. Example: "Machine Learning Basics" → ml-basics

Conflict Resolution: If infographic/{topic-slug}/ already exists:

• Append timestamp: {topic-slug}-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS
• Example: ml-basics exists → ml-basics-20260120-103052

Instructional Design Approach

This skill applies a world-class instructional designer mindset to infographic creation:

1. Deep Understanding: Read and comprehend the source material thoroughly
2. Learning Objectives: Identify what the viewer should understand after seeing the infographic
3. Information Architecture: Structure content for maximum clarity and retention
4. Visual Storytelling: Use visuals to communicate complex ideas accessibly
5. Verbatim Data: Preserve all source data exactly as written—no summarization or rephrasing of facts

Workflow

Step 1: Analyze Content → analysis.md

Read source content and perform deep instructional analysis.

Actions:

1. Save source content (if not already a file):

• If user provides a file path: use as-is
• If user pastes content: save to source.md in target directory

1. Deep reading:

• Read the entire document thoroughly
• Develop deep understanding before proceeding
• Identify the core message and purpose

1. Content analysis:

1. Language detection:

• Detect source language from content
• Detect user language from conversation
• Note if source_language ≠ user_language (will ask in Step 4)

1. Extract design instructions from user input:

• Style preferences (colors, mood, aesthetic)
• Layout preferences (structure, organization)
• Any specific visual requirements
• Separate these from content—they go in the Design Instructions section

1. Save to `analysis.md`

Analysis Output Format:

---
title: "[Main topic title]"
topic: "[Category: educational/technical/business/etc.]"
data_type: "[timeline/hierarchy/comparison/process/etc.]"
complexity: "[simple/moderate/complex]"
source_language: "[detected language]"
user_language: "[user's language]"
---
 
## Main Topic
[1-2 sentence summary of what this content is about]
 
## Learning Objectives
After viewing this infographic, the viewer should understand:
1. [Primary objective]
2. [Secondary objective]
3. [Tertiary objective if applicable]
 
## Target Audience
- **Knowledge Level**: [Beginner/Intermediate/Expert]
- **Context**: [Why they're viewing this]
- **Expectations**: [What they hope to learn]
 
## Content Type Analysis
- **Data Structure**: [How information relates to itself]
- **Key Relationships**: [What connects to what]
- **Visual Opportunities**: [What can be shown rather than told]
 
## Design Instructions (from user input)
[Any style, color, layout, or visual preferences extracted from user's steering prompt]

Step 2: Generate Structured Content → structured-content.md

Transform analyzed content into a structured format for the infographic designer.

Instructional Design Process:

1. Create high-level outline:

• Title that captures the essence
• List all main learning objectives
• Identify the logical flow

1. Flesh out each section:

• For each learning objective, create a section
• Mix conceptual explanations with practical elements
• Preserve all source data verbatim—do not summarize or rephrase

1. Structure for visual communication:

• Identify what becomes a headline
• Identify what becomes supporting text
• Identify what becomes a visual element
• Identify data points, statistics, or quotes

Critical Rules:

Structured Content Format:

# [Infographic Title]
 
## Overview
[Brief description of what this infographic conveys]
 
## Learning Objectives
The viewer will understand:
1.[Objective 1]
2.[Objective 2]
3.[Objective 3]
 
---
 
## Section 1: [Section Title]
 
**Key Concept**: [One-sentence summary]
 
**Content**:
-[Point 1 - verbatim from source]
-[Point 2 - verbatim from source]
-[Point 3 - verbatim from source]
 
**Visual Element**: [What to show visually]
 
**Text Labels**:
-Headline: "[Exact text for headline]"
-Subhead: "[Exact text for subhead]"
-Labels: "[Label 1]", "[Label 2]", ...
 
---
 
## Section 2: [Section Title]
[Continue pattern...]
 
---
 
## Data Points (Verbatim)
[All statistics, numbers, quotes exactly as they appear in source]
-"[Exact quote or statistic 1]"
-"[Exact quote or statistic 2]"
 
---
 
## Design Instructions
[Extracted from user's steering prompt]
-Style: [preferences]
-Colors: [preferences]
-Layout: [preferences]
-Other: [any other visual requirements]

Step 3: Generate Layout×Style Recommendations

Based on analysis and structured content, recommend 3-5 combinations.

Selection Criteria:

Format each recommendation:

[Layout] + [Style]: [Brief rationale based on content analysis]

Step 4: Confirm Options

IMPORTANT: Present ALL options in a single confirmation step using AskUserQuestion.

Questions to ask:

AskUserQuestion format:

Question 1 (Combination) - always:

• Option A (Recommended): [layout] + [style] - [brief rationale]
• Option B: [layout] + [style] - [brief rationale]
• Option C: [layout] + [style] - [brief rationale]
• Custom: Specify your own layout and/or style
