How to use
This catalogue entry advertises the skill in Open Design so the agent discovers it during planning. To run the full upstream workflow with its original assets, scripts, and reference documents, install the upstream bundle into your active agent's skills directory:
# Inspect the upstream README for exact paths
open https://github.com/jiannanya/snow-d3/
# Clone or copy the snow-d3/ folder into your workspace's skills/ directory
git clone https://github.com/jiannanya/snow-d3.git skills/snow-d3
Then ask the agent to invoke this skill by name (d3-visualization) or with
one of the trigger phrases listed in this skill's frontmatter, e.g.:
"Create a zoomable treemap for my sales data" "Build a force-directed network graph like example 07 but for my own dataset" "Generate a calendar heatmap in D3"
