When to use this skill

CRITICAL TRIGGER RULE

• Use this skill ONLY when the user explicitly mentions the exact skill name: ascii-mini-charts.

Trigger phrases include:

• "ascii-mini-charts"
• "use ascii-mini-charts"
• "用 ascii-mini-charts 生成 sparkline / 火花线"
• "使用 ascii-mini-charts 标注 min/max/current"

Boundary

• No statistical inference. Visualization only.
• Default output is ASCII-only. Unicode blocks are optional and MUST include an ASCII-only fallback.
• Default output width should stay <= 60 columns. For longer series, provide a compression strategy (sampling/bucketing).

How to use this skill

Inputs

• series (required numeric list)
• type (sparkline | bar | line, default sparkline)
• width (default min(len(series), 30))
• height (default 10 for bar/line)
• normalize (linear | log, default linear)
• showLabels (default true)

Outputs (required)

• chartMinimal
• chartAnnotated (with min/max/current)
• scaleNotes (normalization + outlier strategy)

Script

• scripts/mini_charts.py: generate ASCII mini charts from JSON stdin

Examples

• examples/sparkline.md

Quality checklist

1. Trend is clear; labels are short and non-spammy
2. ASCII-only output copy/pastes cleanly
3. Provide a compression strategy for long series
