v2.0.0 — Fidelity, not vibes.

A ground-up refactor of the IPCC AR6 WGI plotting skill around one goal:

faithful visual grammar, backed by evidence.

What changed

  • Distilled AR6 WGI visual rules from official guides, colormaps, chapter code, TSU review comments, and Atlas guidance
  • Added separate ar6-report and wgi-guide-2022 style profiles
  • Added semantic SSP/RCP colours
  • Added strict loading of official IPCC WGI colormaps
  • Added 90 / 180 mm figure geometry, 9 / 11 pt typography, 0.5 pt axes, and 350 ppi print output
  • Added figure archetypes for time series, ensemble bands, maps, and multi-panel layouts
  • Separated model agreement, missing data, and statistical significance encodings
  • Added machine-checkable fidelity audits
  • Added an evidence matrix for rule scope and confidence
  • Removed fake “IPCC defaults” for statistical choices such as median, 17–83% ranges, and 80% agreement
  • Expanded CI across Python 3.11 and 3.12 with end-to-end artifact checks

Fidelity modes

Strict
For IPCC AR6 WGI-faithful output.

Adapted
For IPCC-inspired work when exact assets or constraints are unavailable.

Philosophy

IPCC style is not a Matplotlib theme.

It is a visual grammar.

This release treats it that way.
