Plot Style Presets

Apply expert-curated style presets to Vega-Lite specifications for publication-quality output.

CRITICAL: Which File to Edit

ALWAYS read and write .ggterm/last-plot-vegalite.json — this is the Vega-Lite spec that the viewer renders.

NEVER modify .ggterm/last-plot.json — that is the ggterm terminal format. Changes to it will NOT appear in the viewer.

Workflow

1. Read .ggterm/last-plot-vegalite.json (NOT last-plot.json)
2. Parse as JSON
3. Set spec.config to the style config below — do NOT change encoding, data, or mark
4. Write the updated JSON back to .ggterm/last-plot-vegalite.json
5. DONE — the live viewer auto-detects the change and displays the styled plot

IMPORTANT: Do NOT re-create the plot with npx ggterm-plot after styling. Re-running would overwrite your style changes.
