Will AI hallucinate chart URLs?

Yes - always verify against the preview.

Use `![alt](url)`; avoid mixed-content HTTP URLs on HTTPS sites.

Ask it to convert to ChartKit GET parameters instead.

Charts for AI-generated content

Language models draft fast; charts should fail loud when numbers drift. ChartKit URLs are easy to diff - compare query params against your source table before publish.

Editorial guardrails

Never publish an LLM-supplied chart URL without opening it - typos in `labels` or `s0` skew the story.

Keep the URL parameters doc attached to your style guide so writers know valid keys.

Workflow pages: chart from prompt, chart from text.

Use cases

Agencies batch-producing SEO articles with one chart per post.
Support macros that turn ticket stats into knowledge-base articles.
Research assistants summarizing public datasets with vetted graphics.

How it works

Run the model, paste URL into this builder, compare preview to authoritative data.
If mismatch, fix numbers in the form and overwrite the draft’s URL.
Log final URLs in git next to prompts for reproducibility.
