Alterlab Plotly

alterlab-ieu/alterlab-plotly

Builds INTERACTIVE charts with the Plotly Python library (plotly.express / graph_objects) — hover tooltips, zoom/pan, animations, rangesliders, 3D rotation, and standalone HTML/web-embeddable output. Use when a chart must be interactive or web-embedded, for dashboards (incl. Dash), exploratory data analysis, or rotatable 3D plots. For static publication figures defer to alterlab-matplotlib; for static statistical charts (heatmaps, distributions) defer to alterlab-seaborn; for diagrams/schematics defer to alterlab-scientific-viz. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take alterlab-ieu/alterlab-plotly from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.

Install what it needs

The instructions reference pip, uv. Without those the skill loads but fails at the first command.
