paper-writer

Drafts publishable paper prose from the author's own materials, from a single paragraph to a full manuscript, across STEM and non-STEM fields. Every factual claim traces to user input, verified retrieval, or field common knowledge; citations pass an independent verification ladder; delivery is clean prose with zero placeholder tags. Use when the user asks to write a section, turn an idea or results into paper text, or draft a full paper.

Quality

Content

70%Weight 40%Scale 1-3

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

The skill is well-structured with a clear six-phase workflow, explicit validation gates, and clean progressive disclosure to verified reference files. Its main weakness is moderate verbosity and some abstract routing guidance that could be more concrete.

Suggestions

Consolidate the overlapping 'Hard rules' (Overview) and 'Hard writing rules' (Phase 4) into a single authoritative list to remove restatement.

Tighten the red-flag table by cross-referencing the five-family ban list rather than re-explaining each family inline.

Make routing guidance more actionable — e.g., specify what the 'hand off to intro-drafter' and 'CER skeleton' steps concretely produce rather than naming them abstractly.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is largely disciplined procedural guidance with no basic-concept padding, but it runs long with restated material — the 'Hard rules' and 'Hard writing rules' overlap, and the red-flag table reiterates the five-family ban list — so it could be tightened.

2 / 3

Actionability

Concrete phrasings ('we observe' vs 'the authors report') and a stop/move red-flag table give specific instruction, but several routes remain abstract ('hand off to intro-drafter', 'plan each paragraph on a CER skeleton') without copy-paste-ready detail.

2 / 3

Workflow Clarity

Six sequenced phases (Scope through Deliver) carry explicit checkpoints — the L0–L3 evidence Gate, a writing-time red-flag stop table, and a mandatory independent citation-verification pass — forming clear feedback loops.

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

The body is a clear overview with well-signaled one-level-deep references to references/*.md, all of which exist, and detail is appropriately split across nine reference files with no nested indirection.

Description

100%Weight 40%Scale 1-3

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

The description is specific, complete, and uses natural trigger phrasing with a clear, low-conflict niche. It is among the strongest examples, fully answering both what the skill does and when to invoke it.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions — drafting publishable prose 'from a single paragraph to a full manuscript', tracing claims to three origins, passing citations through a 'verification ladder', and delivering 'clean prose with zero placeholder tags'.

3 / 3

Completeness

Explicitly states both what it does ('Drafts publishable paper prose...') and when to use it ('Use when the user asks to write a section...'), satisfying the what-and-when bar.

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Natural user phrasing appears in 'Use when the user asks to write a section, turn an idea or results into paper text, or draft a full paper', matching how a user would actually request this skill.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The narrow niche of evidence-traceable paper prose with a citation verification ladder is clearly distinguished and unlikely to trigger for adjacent skills like polishing or outlining.
