Generate Diagram

Generate a publication-quality methodology diagram from a text file using PaperBanana.

Instructions

1. Read the file at $ARGUMENTS[0] to get the methodology text content.
2. If $ARGUMENTS[1] is provided, use it as the figure caption. Otherwise, ask the user for a caption describing what the diagram should communicate.
3. Call the MCP tool generate_diagram with:
   • source_context: the text content read from the file
   • caption: the figure caption
   • iterations: 3 (default)
4. Present the generated diagram to the user.

CLI Fallback

If the MCP tool is not available, fall back to the CLI:

paperbanana generate --input <file> --caption "<caption>"
