Meta Results Funnel Plot Generator

• Scope-focused workflow aligned to: Generates a Meta-analysis results section description for funnel plots, including statistical tables (Egger's, Begg's, Trim & Fill) and figure legends. Supports English and Chinese outputs. Use when user provides a funnel plot image and statistics and wants a formatted report.
• Packaged executable path(s): scripts/main.py.
• Reference material available in references/ for task-specific guidance.
• Structured execution path designed to keep outputs consistent and reviewable.

Dependencies

• Python: 3.10+. Repository baseline for current packaged skills.
• Third-party packages: not explicitly version-pinned in this skill package. Add pinned versions if this skill needs stricter environment control.

Example Usage

See ## Usage above for related details.

cd "20260316/scientific-skills/Academic Writing/meta-results-funnel-plot-generator"
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help

Example run plan:

1. Confirm the user input, output path, and any required config values.
2. Edit the in-file CONFIG block or documented parameters if the script uses fixed settings.
3. Run python scripts/main.py with the validated inputs.
4. Review the generated output and return the final artifact with any assumptions called out.

Implementation Details

See ## Workflow above for related details.

• Execution model: validate the request, choose the packaged workflow, and produce a bounded deliverable.
• Input controls: confirm the source files, scope limits, output format, and acceptance criteria before running any script.
• Primary implementation surface: scripts/main.py.
• Reference guidance: references/ contains supporting rules, prompts, or checklists.
• Parameters to clarify first: input path, output path, scope filters, thresholds, and any domain-specific constraints.
• Output discipline: keep results reproducible, identify assumptions explicitly, and avoid undocumented side effects.

Usage

Trigger this skill when the user provides:

1. Funnel Plot Image: The visual plot.
2. Statistics: Text containing statistical data (Egger's test, Begg's test, Trim & Fill).
3. Title/Outcome: Context for the analysis.
4. Language: "Chinese" or "English".

Workflow

1. Generate Description: Use LLM to describe the funnel plot (symmetry, outliers) based on the image and stats.
2. Generate Tables: Use LLM to format the provided statistics into three specific Markdown tables:
   • Egger's test (Bias assessment)
   • Begg's test
   • Trim and Fill method
3. Assemble Report: Run scripts/main.py to:
   • Clean LLM outputs (remove markdown fences).

• Insert figure reference "(Figure 3)" or "(Figure 3)" into the description. * Combine Description, Image Placeholder, Figure Legend, and Tables into the final output.

Quality Rules

• Language: Output must match the requested language (Chinese/English).
• Structure: The final output must strictly follow the order: Description -> Figure -> Legend -> Tables.
• Formatting: Tables must be standard Markdown.
