Understand what figure the user wants 2. Identify all components, connections, data flow 3. Create a **detailed, structured prompt** for Gemini 4. Include style requirements AND visual appeal requirements **Prompt Template for Claude to generate:** ``` Create a PROFESSIONAL, VISUALLY APPEALING publication-quality academic diagram following CVPR/ICLR/NeurIPS standards. ## Visual Style: 科研风格 (Academic Professional Style) ### 目标：平衡 — 既不保守也不花哨 #### DO (应该有): - **Subtle gradients** — 同色系淡雅渐变（如 #2563EB → #3B82F6），不是多色炫彩 - **Rounded corners** — 圆角矩形（6-10px），现代感 - **Clear visual hierarchy** — 通过大小、深浅区分层次 - **Internal structure** — 大模块内显示子组件结构 - **Consistent color coding** — 统一的3-4色方案 - **Professional polish** — 精致但不夸张 #### DON'T (不要有): - ❌ Rainbow/multi-color gradients (彩虹渐变) - ❌ Heavy drop shadows (重阴影) - ❌ 3D effects / perspective (3D效果) - ❌ Glowing effects (发光效果) - ❌ Excessive decorative icons (过多装饰图标) - ❌ Plain boring rectangles (完全平淡的方块) #### 理想效果： 像顶会论文中精心设计的架构图 — 专业、清晰、有适度的视觉吸引力 ## Figure Type [Architecture Diagram / Pipeline / Comparison / etc.] ## Components to Include (BE SPECIFIC ABOUT CONTENT) 1. [Component 1]: - Label: "[exact text]" - Sub-label: "[smaller text below]" - Position: [left/center/right, top/middle/bottom] - Style: [border color, fill, internal structure] 2. [Component 2]: ... ## Layout - Direction: [left-to-right / top-to-bottom] - Spacing: [tight / normal / loose] - Grouping: [how components should be grouped] ## Connections (BE EXPLICIT ABOUT DIRECTION) EXACT arrow specifications: 1. [Component A] → [Component B]: Arrow goes FROM A TO B, label it "[data type]" 2. [Component C] → [Component D]: Arrow goes FROM C TO D, label it "[data type]" ... VERIFY: Each arrow must point to the CORRECT target! ## Style Requirements (CVPR/ICLR/NeurIPS Standard) ### Visual Style - Color palette: Professional academic colors - Inputs: Green (#10B981) - Encoders: Blue (#2563EB) - Fusion modules: Purple (#7C3AED) - Outputs: Orange (#EA580C) - Font: Sans-serif (Arial/Helvetica), minimum 14pt, bold for labels - Background: Clean white, no patterns - Blocks: Rounded rectangles (8-12px radius), subtle gradient fill, colored border (2-3px) - Subtle shadows for depth effect - Print-friendly (must work in grayscale) ### CRITICAL: Arrow & Data Flow Requirements 1. **ALL arrows must be VERY THICK** - minimum 5-6px stroke width 2. **ALL arrows must have CLEAR arrowheads** - large, visible triangular heads 3. **ALL arrows must be BLACK or DARK GRAY** - not colored 4. **Label EVERY arrow** with what data flows through it 5. **VERIFY arrow direction** - each arrow MUST point to the correct target 6. **No ambiguous connections** - every arrow should have a clear source and destination ### Logic Clarity Requirements 1. **Data flow must be immediately obvious** - viewer should understand the pipeline in 5 seconds 2. **No crossing arrows** - reorganize layout to avoid arrow crossings 3. **Consistent direction** - maintain left-to-right or top-to-bottom flow throughout 4. **Group related components** - use subtle background boxes or spacing to group modules 5. **Clear hierarchy** - main components larger, sub-components smaller ## Additional Requirements [Any specific requirements from user] ``` ### Step 2: Gemini Layout Optimization (gemini-3-pro) **Claude sends the initial prompt to Gemini (gemini-3-pro) for layout optimization.** ```bash #!/bin/bash # Step 2: Optimize layout using Gemini gemini-3-pro # This step refines component positioning and spacing set -e OUTPUT_DIR="figures/ai_generated" mkdir -p "$OUTPUT_DIR" API_KEY="${GEMINI_API_KEY}" URL="https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/models/gemini-3-pro-preview:generateContent?key=$API_KEY" # The initial prompt from Claude INITIAL_PROMPT='[Claude fills in the detailed prompt here]' # Layout optimization request LAYOUT_REQUEST="You are an expert in academic figure layout design for CVPR/NeurIPS papers.

[Issue 1]: [EXACTLY what is wrong] → [How to fix] 2. [Issue 2]: [EXACTLY what is wrong] → [How to fix] 3. [Issue 3]: [EXACTLY what is wrong] → [How to fix] ### Score: X/10 ### STRICT Score Breakdown Guide: - **10**: Perfect. No issues. Publication-ready masterpiece. 视觉风格完美平衡。 - **9**: Excellent. Minor issues that don't affect understanding. 可以直接使用。 - **8**: Good but has noticeable issues. 视觉上太平淡或太花哨都需要改进。 - **7**: Usable but has clear problems. 箭头或内容有问题。 - **6**: Has arrow direction errors (箭头指向错误) OR missing major components. - **1-5**: Major issues. Unacceptable. ### Visual Style Scoring (视觉风格评分): - **太花哨 (Too flashy)**: 重阴影、发光效果、彩虹配色 → score ≤ 7 - **太平淡 (Too plain)**: 纯黑白方块、无任何视觉设计 → score ≤ 8 - **恰到好处 (Balanced)**: 适度渐变、圆角、清晰层次 → score 9-10 ### Verdict [ ] ACCEPT (score ≥ 9 AND all critical checks pass) [ ] REFINE (score < 9 OR any critical check fails) **If REFINE: List the EXACT issues that must be fixed** ``` ### Step 6: Decision Point ``` IF score >= 9 AND all critical checks pass: → Accept figure, generate LaTeX snippet, DONE ELSE IF iteration < MAX_ITERATIONS: → Generate SPECIFIC improvement prompt based on EXACT issues → Go to Step 2 (Gemini Layout) with refined prompt ELSE: → Max iterations reached, show best version → Ask user if they want to continue or accept ``` ### Step 7: Generate Improvement Prompt (for refinement) **Claude generates TARGETED improvement prompt with EXACT issues:** ``` Refine this academic diagram. This is iteration {N}. ## ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ ## CRITICAL: Fix These EXACT Issues (from previous review) ## ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ ### Arrow Direction Errors (MUST FIX): 1. [EXACT issue]: Arrow from [A] to [B] is pointing to wrong target. It should point to [C] instead. 2. [EXACT issue]: ... ### Missing Arrow Labels (MUST FIX): 1. Arrow from [A] to [B] is missing label "[data type]" 2. ... ### Block Content Issues (MUST FIX): 1. Block "[Name]" has wrong label. Should be "[correct label]" 2. ... ### Visual Appeal Issues (SHOULD FIX): 1. Blocks are too plain. Add [gradients/shadows/internal structure] 2. ... ## Keep These Good Elements: - [What to preserve from previous version] ## Generate the improved figure with ALL issues fixed. ``` ### Step 8: Final Output When figure is accepted (score ≥ 9): ```latex % === AI-Generated Figure === begin{figure*}[t] centering includegraphics[width=0.95textwidth]{figures/ai_generated/figure_final.png} caption{[Caption based on user's original request].} label{fig:[label]} end{figure*} ``` ## Key Rules (MUST FOLLOW - STRICT) 1. **NEVER skip the review step** — Always read and STRICTLY score the image 2. **NEVER accept score < 9** — Keep refining until excellence 3. **VERIFY EVERY ARROW DIRECTION** — Wrong direction = automatic fail (score ≤ 6) 4. **VERIFY EVERY BLOCK CONTENT** — Wrong content = automatic fail (score ≤ 7) 5. **BE SPECIFIC in feedback** — "Arrow from A to B points to wrong target C" not "arrow is wrong" 6. **SAVE all iterations** — Keep version history for comparison 7. **Claude is the STRICT boss** — Accept only excellence, not "good enough" 8. **ARROW CORRECTNESS IS NON-NEGOTIABLE** — Any wrong arrow direction = reject 9. **VISUAL APPEAL MATTERS** — Plain boring figures = score ≤ 8 10. **Target score is 9** — Not 8, not "good enough" 11. **USE MULTI-STAGE WORKFLOW** — Claude → Gemini Layout → Gemini Style → Paperbanana → Claude Review 12. **USE CORRECT MODELS** — gemini-3-pro for reasoning, gemini-3-pro-image-preview for rendering ## Output Structure ``` figures/ai_generated/ ├── layout_description.txt # Step 2: Gemini layout optimization output ├── style_spec.txt # Step 3: Gemini style verification output ├── figure_v1.png # Iteration 1 (Paperbanana render) ├── figure_v2.png # Iteration 2 ├── figure_v3.png # Iteration 3 ├── figure_final.png # Accepted version (copy of best, score ≥ 9) ├── latex_include.tex # LaTeX snippet └── review_log.json # All review scores and STRICT feedback ``` ## Model Summary | Stage | Model | Purpose | |-------|-------|---------| | Step 1 | Claude | Parse request, create initial prompt | | Step 2 | gemini-3-pro | Layout optimization (positioning, spacing, grouping) | | Step 3 | gemini-3-pro | CVPR/NeurIPS style verification | | Step 4 | gemini-3-pro-image-preview (Paperbanana) | High-quality image rendering | | Step 5 | Claude | STRICT visual review and scoring |
