Öffne Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config. Nach dem Speichern neu starten.

Cursor nutzt das gleiche mcpServers-Schema wie Claude Desktop. Projektkonfiguration schlägt die globale.

VS Code → Cline → MCP Servers → Edit

  "mcpServers": {
    "thesis-figure-skill": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",

    }

Klicken Sie auf das MCP-Servers-Symbol in der Cline-Seitenleiste, dann "Edit Configuration".

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

  "mcpServers": {

      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Gleiche Struktur wie Claude Desktop. Windsurf neu starten zum Übernehmen.

~/.continue/config.json

{
  "mcpServers": [
    {
      "name": "thesis-figure-skill",
      "command": "git",

        "~/.claude/skills/thesis-figure-skill"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Continue nutzt ein Array von Serverobjekten statt einer Map.

        ]
      }

In context_servers hinzufügen. Zed lädt beim Speichern neu.

Anwendungsfälle

Praxisnahe Nutzung: thesis-figure-skill

How to generate a figure for a specific paragraph of your paper

👤 Grad students and researchers writing papers or theses ⏱ ~15 min intermediate

Wann einsetzen: You wrote the paragraph, but the reviewer would really appreciate a figure here.

Voraussetzungen

LaTeX toolchain (TeX Live or MiKTeX) with tikz, pgfplots — brew install --cask mactex / apt install texlive-full
Skill cloned — git clone https://github.com/0xE1337/thesis-figure-skill ~/.claude/skills/thesis-figure-skill

Ablauf

Paste the paragraph

Paragraph: <text about system architecture>. Generate a TikZ figure that illustrates the architecture.✓ Kopiert

→ Diagram type picked + TikZ code
Compile and preview

Save the code to fig.tex and compile — show me the PDF path.✓ Kopiert

→ PDF produced
Iterate

Shrink the node widths and make the arrows straight, not curved.✓ Kopiert

→ Revised TikZ, compiles cleanly

Ergebnis: A usable publication-quality figure in under 10 minutes.

Fallstricke

Overly decorated figures that scream 'AI made this' — Ask for minimal, academic-conservative style
Figure size fights the paper's column width — Specify target width (e.g., 0.9\linewidth) up front

Kombinieren mit: filesystem

Turn a CSV into a pgfplots chart for your paper

👤 Researchers with experimental results ⏱ ~25 min intermediate

Wann einsetzen: You have results in CSV and want paper-quality plots, not matplotlib screenshots.

Ablauf

Feed the CSV

Here's results.csv. Make a pgfplots line chart comparing methods A/B/C on x=batch_size, y=accuracy.✓ Kopiert

→ pgfplots code + legend
Tweak

Add error bars (std dev from results_std.csv) and log-scale the x-axis.✓ Kopiert

→ Updated code with error bars

Ergebnis: A publication-grade plot that scales cleanly.

Fallstricke

Too many colors / markers — Ask for a grayscale- and colorblind-safe palette

Kombinieren mit: csv-data-summarizer-claude-skill

Kombinationen

Mit anderen MCPs für 10-fache Wirkung

thesis-figure-skill + csv-data-summarizer-claude-skill

Profile the CSV first, then generate plots that reflect its actual shape

Summarize results.csv, then produce pgfplots charts that visualize the findings.✓ Kopiert

thesis-figure-skill + filesystem

Save figures alongside your paper source

Place every generated figure in paper/figures/.✓ Kopiert

Fehlerbehebung

Häufige Fehler und Lösungen

pdflatex errors on pgfplots

Update pgfplots and ensure \usepackage{pgfplots}\pgfplotsset{compat=1.18} or similar.

Prüfen: kpsewhich pgfplots.sty

TikZ nodes overlap

Ask for named positioning using node distance and relative placements

Figure too big for column

Set scale= or wrap in resizebox{\linewidth}{!}{...}

Alternativen

thesis-figure-skill vs. andere

Alternative	Wann stattdessen	Kompromiss
mermaid-skill	Diagrams for the web / Markdown, not papers	Different output medium
excalidraw-skill	You want hand-drawn whiteboard style	Not publication-quality
