Pick a research communication skill to start with
Infographic Poster
Explainers · PNG + PDF · 1080 × 1350, 1080 × 1920, A4 or A3
A designed one-page infographic from your CSV or JSON and a headline: big numbers, ring charts, bar and column charts, a timeline and pictogram rows, drawn as SVG from the data. Your agent finds the story, writes the poster file, and the renderer fits everything to the page and checks for overflow, colliding labels and contrast before writing a PNG and a vector PDF.

How it works
Three steps from install to result
- Step 1
Paste the install prompt
Copy it from any skill page and paste it into your agent. The first time, your agent opens a browser tab so you can approve it. The installer writes the skill to ~/.agents/skills, ~/.claude/skills or both, depending on where you run it.
curl -fsSL https://lookbk.dev/cli.js | node - add infographic-poster - Step 2
Ask for the result you want
Describe the job in plain words, as in the example. The agent follows the skill’s steps and tells you what it needs from you: your site, your numbers or your logo.

Review and ship
Your agent runs the skill’s own checks and hands you the files. Ask for changes in plain words until it is right.

About
About these skills
Compare with a plain promptWhy use a research communication skill instead of a prompt?
| What you compare | A chat prompt | A Lookbk skill |
|---|---|---|
| Starting point | A blank prompt and a guess at the style | A finished art direction your agent follows |
| Conventions | Layouts vary, and you paste references by hand | Action titles, numbered figures and captions, and a references slide built from your BibTeX or JSON entries |
| Charts | Plain bars with no uncertainty shown | Bar, line, scatter and waterfall charts drawn from your numbers, with error bars and confidence bands |
| Checks before you see it | You spot the cut-off text and the weak contrast yourself | Each skill checks text fit, overlaps and contrast before it hands over |

FAQ
Research communication skills: FAQ
Still stuck? The guides cover installing, agents and licensing in more detail.
Read the guidesWill it match my university’s template?
No. It follows common academic conventions, but it won’t match a university’s own PowerPoint template exactly. Check what your committee requires before you build.
Can it make a conference poster or a paper?
No. The thesis deck is for talks. The infographic poster makes a designed one-page summary of your numbers, not a conference poster in a venue’s format.
Will the skill make up facts or numbers?
A skill builds from what you give it: your site, README, numbers and screenshots, and it draws charts from your data. It checks layout, text fit and contrast, not whether a claim is true. Read the result before you publish it, because it goes out under your name.
Which agents are they written for?
Any agent that reads SKILL.md folders, including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI and OpenCode.
Can I try one for free?
Not yet: none of the 3 research communication skills is free. Every one has a live preview, though, so you see what it makes before you pay, and Lookbk has 8 free skills in other collections.
What does it cost?
Free skills cost nothing. A single Pro skill is $6.90, yours to keep with a year of updates. Pro is $99 a year for every Pro skill, or $19 a month for 10 Pro skills a month, and Founding Lifetime is $199 once for the first 100 members, then Lifetime is $299. If a skill doesn’t work with your agent, email support@lookbk.dev within 7 days of buying and we fix it or refund you.
Can I use what I make commercially?
Yes. Anything your agent makes with a Lookbk skill is yours, including for client and commercial work. You can’t resell or republish Pro skill packages. Free skills are open source under the MIT License.
