scientific-writing

Draft, revise, and audit scientific manuscripts or reports with explicit evidence provenance, reporting-guideline coverage, authorship accountability, confidentiality controls, and local consistency checks. Use for manuscript sections, references, declarations, tables, figures, or submission preparation when scientific accuracy and traceability matter.

Quality

Content

100%

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

The content is an exemplary instruction skill: lean, fully actionable with executable commands, a clearly sequenced 12-step workflow with explicit validation/feedback loops, and well-structured progressive disclosure pointing to real, verified bundle files one level deep.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is lean and assumes Claude's competence — it states rules and gives executable commands without explaining what a manuscript or a reporting guideline is, so every token earns its place.

3 / 3

Actionability

Each workflow step ships copy-paste-ready, fully specified commands (e.g. 'python3 scripts/check_consistency.py consistency_manifest.json', 'python3 scripts/audit_claims.py manuscript.md claims.csv source_manifest.json'), matching the fully executable anchor.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

The 12-step workflow is clearly sequenced with explicit validation checkpoints and feedback loops (e.g. resolve mismatches then re-run audits, 'Only when valid' approval gating), matching the clear-sequence-with-validation anchor.

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

SKILL.md is a concise overview with well-signaled one-level-deep references to verified files under references/, assets/, and scripts/, and a bundled-files index that aids navigation — no nested/deep references.

Description

85%

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 distinctive, with an explicit 'Use for ... when' trigger clause covering both what and when. Trigger-term coverage is solid but leans formal, missing a few natural colloquial phrasings a user might actually say.

Suggestions

Add a couple of natural user-spoken trigger phrases to the 'Use for ...' clause (e.g., 'writing a paper', 'preparing a journal submission', 'formatting citations') to lift trigger-term coverage to the top anchor.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions — "Draft, revise, and audit scientific manuscripts or reports" plus explicit evidence provenance, reporting-guideline coverage, authorship accountability, confidentiality controls, and local consistency checks — matching the 'lists multiple specific concrete actions' anchor.

3 / 3

Completeness

It clearly states both what it does (draft/revise/audit with provenance and checks) and when to use it via an explicit "Use for ... when scientific accuracy and traceability matter" clause, satisfying the 'both what AND when with explicit triggers' anchor.

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

It names natural domain terms (manuscript sections, references, declarations, tables, figures, submission preparation), but the phrasing is fairly formal and lacks common user-spoken variants like 'write a paper', 'submission', or 'citations', so it sits between the 'some relevant keywords' and 'good coverage' anchors.

2 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The evidence-provenance and reporting-guideline-coverage niche with bundled local consistency checks is a clear, specialized domain unlikely to trigger for other skills, matching the 'clear niche with distinct triggers' anchor.
