# Infographic Generator

Generate publication-grade infographics that match your carousel visual quality. Uses mesh gradients, bold typography, icons, and branded footers.

## World-Class Templates

| Template | Use Case | Visual Style |
|----------|----------|--------------|
| `infographic-hero` | Single key stat | Giant gradient stat badge, icon, branded footer |
| `infographic-dense` | Multi-section content | Grid of styled cards with icons |
| `infographic-comparison` | Drug vs drug, treatment options | Split layout with contrast colors |
| `infographic-myth` | Debunking misconceptions | Red/Green split with icons |
| `infographic-process` | Workflows, algorithms | Numbered steps with connectors |
| `infographic-checklist` | Patient prep, guides | Styled checkbox items |

## Quick Start

### Single Infographic

```bash
# Hero stat infographic
python skills/cardiology/infographic-generator/scripts/infographic_cli.py \
  --template infographic-hero \
  --data '{"stat":"26%","label":"Mortality Reduction","context":"HR 0.74 (95% CI 0.65-0.85)","source":"PARADIGM-HF","icon":"chart-down","tag":"CLINICAL TRIAL"}' \
  --output outputs/hero-paradigm.png

# Dense multi-section
python skills/cardiology/infographic-generator/scripts/infographic_cli.py \
  --template infographic-dense \
  --data '{"tag":"PATIENT GUIDE","title":"GLP-1 Roll-Off","icon":"pill","sections":[{"title":"Who this is for","bullets":["Stable HF patients","No recent decompensation"],"icon":"people"},{"title":"Red flags","bullets":["Weight gain >2kg/week","New edema"],"icon":"warning","accent":"danger"}],"callout":{"label":"Key","text":"Monitor weekly during taper"}}' \
  --output outputs/dense-glp1.png

# Comparison
python skills/cardiology/infographic-generator/scripts/infographic_cli.py \
  --template infographic-comparison \
  --data '{"tag":"TREATMENT CHOICE","title":"ACE-I vs ARB","left":{"label":"ACE Inhibitors","stat":"22%","statLabel":"Mortality Reduction","icon":"pill","bullets":["First-line","More cough"],"theme":"primary"},"right":{"label":"ARBs","stat":"18%","statLabel":"Mortality Reduction","icon":"shield","bullets":["ACE-I intolerant","Better tolerated"],"theme":"accent"}}' \
  --output outputs/comparison-acei-arb.png

# Myth buster
python skills/cardiology/infographic-generator/scripts/infographic_cli.py \
  --template infographic-myth \
  --data '{"tag":"MYTH BUSTED","title":"Statins cause muscle damage","myth":{"text":"Taking statins will definitely give you muscle pain"},"truth":{"text":"Only 5-10% experience symptoms, most can continue therapy"},"evidence":"Meta-analysis of 19 RCTs","source":"Lancet 2022"}' \
  --output outputs/myth-statins.png

# Process flow
python skills/cardiology/infographic-generator/scripts/infographic_cli.py \
  --template infographic-process \
  --data '{"tag":"ALGORITHM","title":"Starting SGLT2 Inhibitors","steps":[{"title":"Screen","description":"Confirm HFrEF, check eGFR","icon":"magnify"},{"title":"Initiate","description":"Start at recommended dose","icon":"pill"},{"title":"Monitor","description":"Check creatinine at 1-2 weeks","icon":"chart-up"}],"note":"eGFR ≥20 for most agents"}' \
  --output outputs/process-sglt2.png

# Checklist
python skills/cardiology/infographic-generator/scripts/infographic_cli.py \
  --template infographic-checklist \
  --data '{"tag":"PATIENT CHECKLIST","title":"Before Your Stress Test","icon":"heart","categories":[{"title":"24 Hours Before","items":[{"text":"Avoid caffeine"},{"text":"Continue medications"}]},{"title":"Day of Test","items":[{"text":"Wear comfortable shoes"},{"text":"Bring medication list"}]}],"callout":{"icon":"warning","text":"Tell staff about chest pain"}}' \
  --output outputs/checklist-stress.png
```

### Batch Generation

Generate multiple infographics from a config file (perfect for content campaigns):

```bash
# From JSON config
python skills/cardiology/infographic-generator/scripts/batch_generate.py \
  --config examples/batch_demo.json

# Parallel generation (faster)
python skills/cardiology/infographic-generator/scripts/batch_generate.py \
  --config examples/batch_demo.json \
  --parallel 4

# Validate config without generating
python skills/cardiology/infographic-generator/scripts/batch_generate.py \
  --config my_config.json \
  --dry-run
```

**Example batch config** (`examples/batch_demo.json`):
```json
[
  {
    "template": "infographic-hero",
    "data": {
      "stat": "26%",
      "label": "Mortality Reduction",
      "source": "PARADIGM-HF",
      "icon": "chart-down",
      "tag": "CLINICAL TRIAL"
    },
    "output": "outputs/hero-paradigm.png"
  },
  {
    "template": "infographic-myth",
    "data": {
      "tag": "MYTH BUSTED",
      "title": "Statins cause muscle damage",
      "myth": {"text": "Taking statins will give you pain"},
      "truth": {"text": "Only 5-10% experience symptoms"}
    },
    "output": "outputs/myth-statins.png"
  }
]
```

**Batch Features:**
- ✅ Validate all configs before generating
- ✅ Parallel generation (1-8 workers)
- ✅ Stop on first error (optional)
- ✅ JSON or YAML config formats
- ✅ Progress tracking
