npx skillmds@latest add plugin:brycewang-stanford/advanced-materials-skills

One command, no setup. In Claude Code it lands as a managed plugin you can enable, disable or remove with /plugin. On any other agent it installs the 12 skills into that agent's own folder.

Or inside Claude Code

In the Plugins tab, add this marketplace:

skillmds/skillmd
/plugin install brycewang-stanford-advanced-materials-skills@skillmd

Adds the marketplace once; later plugins need the second line only.

Or install by hand

Download the plugin and unzip its skills/ folder into your agent's skills directory. Works with every agent, no CLI needed.

Skills in this plugin

▌
Advmat Figures · brycewang-stanford
Use when designing or auditing figures for an Advanced Materials manuscript, including the lead figure, multi-panel characterization figures, and the Table-of-Contents graphic, where visual quality is a house expectation. Designs figure strategy; does not run the analysis or write prose.

▌
Advmat Methods · brycewang-stanford
Use when deciding what characterization and experimental detail an Advanced Materials manuscript must show to prove its structure–property claim, and what belongs in the Experimental Section and Supporting Information. Partitions and stress-tests methods; does not design figures or run analysis.

▌
Advmat Revision · brycewang-stanford
Use when responding to Advanced Materials reviewer reports and an editor's decision — major or minor revision, or a rejection with a resubmission or transfer path. Structures the response and the manuscript changes; does not perform the underlying new experiments.

▌
Advmat Workflow · brycewang-stanford
Use when deciding which advmat-* sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing manuscript work from scope-fit through revision for an Advanced Materials (Adv. Mater.) manuscript. Routes — does not replace — the specialized skills.

▌
Advmat Scope Fit · brycewang-stanford
Use when deciding whether a materials result clears Advanced Materials' advance-and-broad-impact gate, or whether it belongs in Advanced Functional Materials, Advanced Science, Small, or Advanced Materials Interfaces. Diagnoses venue fit; does not write or characterize the material.

▌
Advmat Submission · brycewang-stanford bundle
Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for an Advanced Materials manuscript — article type, format, files, Supporting Information, TOC graphic, ORCID, and metadata for the Wiley submission system. Verifies submission readiness; does not write content.

▌
Advmat Cover Letter · brycewang-stanford
Use when drafting the cover letter for an Advanced Materials submission, whose core job is to convince the editor that the work is a genuine materials advance of broad impact worthy of the journal. Argues the impact case; does not fix the science or format the manuscript.

▌
Advmat Supplementary · brycewang-stanford
Use when partitioning content between an Advanced Materials main text and its Supporting Information, ensuring the paper stands alone while extended data, full experimental detail, and secondary characterization live in the SI. Organizes the Supporting Information; does not write the main text.

▌
Advmat Writing Style · brycewang-stanford
Use when polishing the prose of an Advanced Materials manuscript for Wiley house style, concision, precise materials nomenclature and units, and readability across materials subfields. Polishes language; does not restructure the advance or manage the length budget.

1k repo stars
▌
Advmat Results Framing · brycewang-stanford
Use when an Advanced Materials result is sound but its central advance and significance are not yet sharp, or when a Communication's opening paragraph must double as its abstract. Structures the one-advance narrative; does not run characterization or design figures.

1k repo stars
▌
Advmat Referee Strategy · brycewang-stanford
Use when choosing suggested and opposed referees for an Advanced Materials submission and pre-empting the objections materials reviewers most often raise. Plans referee selection and objection defense; does not write the manuscript or the rebuttal.

1k repo stars
▌
Advmat Length Management · brycewang-stanford
Use when an Advanced Materials manuscript must be fit to its article-type format — Communication versus Research Article — where word count and display items are budgeted together against a typeset page limit. Manages the length budget; does not restructure the science or polish prose line by line.
