What this skill does
lens-chart — BI & Analytics Chart Selection Follow the output format defined in docs/output-kit.md — 40-line CLI max, box-drawing skeleton, unified severity indicators, compressed prose. When to use User needs chart type selection or visualization recommendations for analytics dashboards or BI contexts. Workflow 1. Identify data type and BI context from user request (sales trends, cohort analysis, funnel, KPI comparison, etc.) 2. Search chart knowledge base: 3. Search style for BI context: 4. Evaluate for BI requirements: data density, drill-down capability, real-time support, library recommendation 5. Output optimized for decision-making, not decoration Output format Anti-patterns Never choose decorative over data-dense visualizations for BI contexts Never skip the "does this answer a decision?" test — every chart must justify its inclusion Never skip accessibility fallback for charts graded below AA Never recommend real-time charts without confirming the data pipeline supports streaming Delivery If output exceeds the 40-line CLI budget, invoke /atlas-report with the full findings. The HTML report is the output. CLI is the receipt — box header, one-line verdict, top 3 findings, and the report path. Never dump analysis to CLI.
