Publication-Quality MATLAB Figures
`matlab-plot-skill` is a reusable skill for Codex and Claude Code that fixes messy MATLAB figures: cramped layouts, unreadable titles, awkward legends, bad white space, and weak PDF output for LaTeX or Overleaf.
The key rule is simple: the agent must not stop after writing plotting code. It must generate the figure, export it, read the rendered figure itself, and iterate until the visual result is no longer a mess.

- how to make MATLAB figures look professional
- publication-quality MATLAB plots
- fix messy subplot layout in MATLAB
- export MATLAB figure to PDF for LaTeX
- MATLAB figures for Overleaf
- improve MATLAB legend, title, spacing, and white space
What Problem This Solves
- multi-panel MATLAB figures that look cramped or amateurish
- legends that steal too much plot area
- titles that are too long or too small after PDF scaling
- inconsistent colors and symbols across panels
- plots that look acceptable in MATLAB but bad once embedded in a paper
What This Skill Enforces
- MATLAB-first figure cleanup for papers, appendices, and slides
- vector PDF export for LaTeX and Overleaf workflows
- better layout choices for multi-panel figures
- explicit render-review-iterate behavior
- reusable MATLAB export helper code
- a quick PNG review path so the agent can read the rendered figure easily
