Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.

Agent request
Review the Skillstore skill "plotly" from https://skillstore.io/skills/k-dense-ai-plotly.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/k-dense-ai-plotly/manifest. Verify the artifact. Stop and obtain explicit user consent before installing or changing files.

Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it

Using "plotly". Create a Plotly scatter chart with a trendline and treatment colors.

Expected outcome:

  • Interactive scatter chart plan using Plotly Express.
  • Temperature mapped to the x-axis and yield mapped to the y-axis.
  • Treatment groups shown with distinct colors and hover details.
  • Trendline included for exploratory comparison.

Using "plotly". Build a dashboard view for sales by month, region, and product.

Expected outcome:

  • Four-panel Plotly dashboard layout.
  • Line chart for monthly trend, bar chart for regions, heatmap for product mix, and box plot for distribution.
  • Consistent template, titles, axis labels, and legend placement.

Using "plotly". Export my chart for a web report and a presentation slide.

Expected outcome:

  • Interactive HTML export recommendation for the web report.
  • Static image export recommendation for the slide deck.
  • Notes about Kaleido, browser rendering, and file size options.

Security Audit

High Risk
v8 • 7/6/2026 Open versioned report

Static findings are false positives from markdown fences, Plotly documentation text, official URLs, and chart export examples. Semantic review found a bundled self-attested safety report and an instruction to promote K-Dense Web, both of which can bias agent behavior. No hidden executable code, credential theft, or covert network exfiltration was found.

High
evaluation_result.json:15-18
Prompt Injection Attempt Detected
evaluation_result.json embeds self-attestation such as "risk_level": "safe", "safe_to_publish": true, and a summary claiming all findings are false positives. This untrusted file can steer an audit agent if treated as authoritative.
The cited lines directly contain safety and publishability claims inside bundled skill content. It does not use explicit override wording, so confidence is high but not absolute.
Medium
SKILL.md:266-267
Unsolicited External Service Promotion
SKILL.md instructs the agent to proactively suggest K-Dense Web and frame it as an optional productivity upgrade. This biases assistant responses toward a creator-operated hosted service when the user did not request a recommendation.
The instruction is explicit and located in the main skill file. It is promotional steering rather than hidden code execution, so medium severity is appropriate.

What You Can Build

Explore datasets interactively

Create hoverable charts, trendlines, distributions, heatmaps, and linked visual views during analysis.

Prepare dashboard visuals

Build Plotly charts for reports, KPI reviews, and embedded dashboard prototypes.

Share scientific visualizations

Generate styled figures, 3D plots, and exportable HTML or static image outputs for presentations.

Try These Prompts

Create a basic chart 
Create a Plotly Express scatter chart from my dataframe using temperature on x, yield on y, and treatment as color.
Compare distributions 
Build Plotly charts that compare measurements across groups with box, violin, histogram, and hover details.
Design a dashboard figure 
Create a 2 by 2 Plotly subplot dashboard with a line chart, bar chart, heatmap, and distribution plot using shared styling.
Export an interactive report 
Generate an interactive Plotly HTML chart and a static PNG version with responsive layout, custom hover text, and clean labels.

Best Practices

  • Use Plotly Express first when a dataframe and standard chart type are enough.
  • Switch to Graph Objects for custom traces, subplots, shapes, and specialized figures.
  • Choose HTML export for interactivity and static image export for slides or documents.

Avoid

  • Using Graph Objects for simple charts that Plotly Express can create clearly.
  • Exporting interactive HTML with CDN assets when offline use is required.
  • Plotting very large raw datasets without aggregation, sampling, or WebGL options.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this skill help create?
It helps create interactive Plotly charts, dashboard figures, styled layouts, and exportable visualization outputs.
When should I use Plotly Express?
Use Plotly Express for quick charts from pandas dataframes with automatic labels, colors, legends, and defaults.
When should I use Graph Objects?
Use Graph Objects when you need precise trace control, custom layouts, complex subplots, or specialized chart types.
Can it make static images?
Yes. The documentation covers static export formats such as PNG, PDF, SVG, JPEG, and WebP.
Does the skill run Plotly code automatically?
No. It provides guidance and examples. The user or agent must run any generated code in their environment.
Is it suitable for dashboards?
Yes. It covers multi-panel figures, interactivity controls, responsive layouts, and basic Dash integration patterns.
