    Issues Found

    1. VQ-001 FAILED: X-axis category labels (Jan, Feb, Mar, etc.) are not visible in the rendered output. The months should be displayed along the bottom of the chart but they are cut off or not rendering.
    2. VQ-004 FAILED: The X-axis title "Month" is also not visible in the output.
    3. CR-002 PARTIAL: The spec requires x values (months) to be visible on the horizontal axis, but they are missing from the rendered image.

    AI Feedback for Next Attempt

    The X-axis categories and title are not rendering properly. This appears to be a rendering/clipping issue. Try the following fixes:

    1. Add padding/margin to ensure x-axis labels are not cut off:

      chart.options.chart = {
          ...
          "marginBottom": 150,  # Add margin for x-axis labels
          "spacingBottom": 50,
      }
    2. Ensure x-axis labels are properly positioned:

      chart.options.x_axis = {
          ...
          "labels": {
              "style": {"fontSize": "32px"},
              "enabled": True,
              "y": 30,  # Offset to ensure visibility
          },
      }
    3. Consider increasing the container height or adjusting the screenshot method to capture the full chart including axis labels.
