tech-paper-template

Structures a technical paper's full logical skeleton using a thinking-template table (research background, limitations, key idea or goal, challenges, methodology modules, contributions), positions the paper as Technique or New Problem/Setting, and runs a four-point self-consistency check. Use when the user is brainstorming a paper, discussing progress with an advisor, or planning the paper before drafting. Also use for 'paper skeleton', 'paper logic chain', 'thinking template', 'paper-structure planning'.

Quality

Content

81%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

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

The body is well-structured and actionable with a strong validation-gated workflow, and it uses progressive disclosure to keep detail in reference files. It loses points for minor Overview redundancy, deferred cell contracts, and an unreferenced bundle file.

Suggestions

Link references/worked-examples.md from the relevant procedure step so all bundle files are reachable from the body.

Render reference pointers as markdown links (e.g. [thinking-template](references/thinking-template.md)) for easier navigation.

Trim the Overview to avoid restating the frontmatter description, or fold it into the procedure.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is lean and assumes Claude's competence without explaining basic concepts, but the Overview partially re-states the frontmatter description and a few procedural sentences could be tightened.

4 / 5

Actionability

Provides a concrete 6-step procedure, four named self-consistency checks with criteria, and a full output-format template; the per-cell content contracts are deferred to references, leaving minor gaps in the body itself.

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

A clearly sequenced 6-step process with an explicit 7-item integrity-gate checklist and a validation feedback loop ('mark needs user attention' on failure), giving explicit checkpoints and error recovery.

5 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Good structure with one-level-deep, signaled references ('See: references/...') and content appropriately split, but references/worked-examples.md is never linked from the body and references are plain text rather than navigable markdown links.

Description

96%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

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, trigger-rich, and complete, explicitly answering both what the skill does and when to use it with concrete quoted phrases. Its only weakness is minor overlap risk with adjacent paper-writing skills in the same plugin.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions—structuring a skeleton via a thinking-template table with named cells, positioning the paper as Technique or New Problem/Setting, and running a four-point self-consistency check—giving comprehensive coverage of what the skill does.

5 / 5

Completeness

Clearly states the 'what' (structures skeleton, positions paper type, runs consistency check) and an explicit 'Use when...' clause with concrete brainstorming/advisor/planning triggers, answering both what and when.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Includes explicit quoted natural triggers ('paper skeleton', 'paper logic chain', 'thinking template', 'paper-structure planning') alongside scenario phrases users would say, giving comprehensive keyword coverage.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Carves a clear niche (logical-skeleton layer before drafting) with distinct triggers, but sits within a cluster of closely related paper skills (intro-drafter, idea-evaluator) creating minor overlap risk rather than zero.
