Generate scatter, line, or line-symbol charts from Excel data using a graphical Windows program or plain-language Codex requests.
Set up an MCP connection so Codex can directly control a local Origin/OriginPro installation to create and export charts.
Search and download matching chart templates from OriginLab's Graph Gallery based on a description or image.

Requires a licensed Origin/OriginPro install on Windows, plus Codex and optionally Python for some skill features.
Origin is a collection of Windows tools built around automating scientific graph making in Origin and OriginPro, popular software researchers use to turn spreadsheet data into publication style charts. The repository bundles graphical programs, batch plotting tools, downloadable skills for the Codex AI coding assistant, and sample data and templates, all packaged as downloadable archive files rather than as source code you build yourself. The collection has five main pieces. One is a plain text file containing a full task description you can hand to Codex so it checks for Origin, Python, and Node.js on your machine, then sets up and verifies a working connection, called an MCP server, that lets Codex directly control a local copy of Origin, creating charts, saving projects, and exporting images. Another piece is a packaged set of standalone executable programs, one for drawing a single chart from an Excel file through a graphical interface, and another for detecting and connecting Origin or CorelDRAW installations, plus a Codex skill called origin-image that lets you describe a chart in plain language and have it generated automatically. A separate archive contains a batch plotting program aimed at handling a queue of multiple charting tasks in a row instead of one at a time. Another update package adds a newer version of the single chart program along with ready made Origin and Python style templates in both cool and warm color themes, plus example projects and preview images so you can see the templates without needing Origin installed. The last piece is a skill that searches and downloads chart templates from OriginLab's own online template gallery, matching a description or an uploaded image to the closest available templates. The author states clearly that this project is not an official OriginLab or Corel product and does not include or provide licenses for that commercial software, which users must install separately and legally themselves. No open-source license for the repository's own content is stated in the README.
Origin is a Windows toolkit of executables, batch plotting programs, and Codex AI skills that automate turning Excel data into Origin, SVG, or CorelDRAW scientific charts.
No open-source license is stated, the project explicitly excludes any license for the commercial Origin/CorelDRAW software it automates.
Setup difficulty is rated moderate, with roughly 1h+ to a first successful run.
Mainly researcher.
