Results for “manuscript”

Use when drafting or revising the body sections of an AER, AER:Insights, or AEJ manuscript — institutional background, data, empirical strategy, results, mechanisms, and conclusion. Covers equation conventions, results-paragraph narration, magnitude interpretation, and back-of-envelope policy calculations. Apply after the empirics are stable and before or alongside aer-introduction.

Use when positioning a manuscript against the existing economics literature, building the antecedents map for the introduction, deciding what to cite, or verifying that every reference in the bibliography is real, correctly attributed, and cited to the published version. Apply at topic selection for the novelty scan and again before drafting the introduction.

Core skill for the deep research and writing tool. Write scientific manuscripts in full paragraphs (never bullet points). Use two-stage process: (1) create section outlines with key points using research-lookup, (2) convert to flowing prose. IMRAD structure, citations (APA/AMA/Vancouver), figures/tables, reporting guidelines (CONSORT/STROBE/PRISMA), for research papers and journal submissions.

Use when planning or sequencing an ICML manuscript workflow end to end - from topic selection and drafting through OpenReview submission, double-blind review, author response, camera-ready, PMLR publication, public original-submission release, and rerouting decisions. Use when you need the next ICML skill, the official page to reopen, or the blocking gap for the current stage.

Use as the entry point for any PMLA (Publications of the Modern Language Association) manuscript. Routes to the right PMLA sub-skill based on where you are in the lifecycle and which venue fits — a regular blind-reviewed article or a special feature (Theories and Methodologies, The Changing Profession, Criticism in Translation, Little-known Documents). It dispatches; it does not draft content.

Multi-perspective academic paper review with dynamic reviewer personas. Simulates 5 independent reviewers (EIC + 3 peer reviewers + Devil's Advocate) with field-specific expertise. Supports full review, re-review (verification), quick assessment, methodology focus, Socratic guided, and calibration modes. Triggers on: review paper, peer review, manuscript review, referee report, review my paper, critique paper, simulate review, editorial review, calibrate reviewer, reviewer calibration, measure reviewer accuracy.

Use when authorship order, CRediT contribution roles, or AI-assistance attribution must be recorded transparently for a manuscript, when an author dispute needs an evidence trail, or before a contributorship statement is required at submission; this skill maintains the human-attribution ledger of who contributed what and in which role (authorship order, CRediT taxonomy, revision responsibilities), which is distinct from the disclosure-metadata audit owned by ai-disclosure-auditor.

Correct grammar errors, typos, and improve academic readability in LaTeX, Markdown, or plain-text manuscripts. Scans the document once, then walks through every issue one-by-one asking for approval before applying each fix. Trigger when the user says "readability", "check grammar", "fix typos", "proofread for grammar", "improve readability", "polish wording", "语言润色", "修语法", or asks you to clean up the prose in a paper/chapter/section without wanting full content restructuring.

Route empirical-research requests through the Auto-Empirical Research Skills catalog when this whole repository is installed as one skill in Codex, CodeBuddy, Claude Code, or another IDE. Use to choose and load the right vendored AERS skill for causal inference, econometrics, replication, data acquisition, manuscript writing, peer review and referee responses, citation checking, de-AIGC editing, or full empirical-paper workflows without reading the entire repository at once.

Polish English academic papers for SSCI journal submission. This skill checks grammar, improves readability, and enhances academic tone. Use when the user asks to polish, proofread, edit, or improve their English academic paper, manuscript, or article — especially when targeting SSCI, SCI, or other international journals. Also use when the user asks to "润色", "修改语法", "提升学术性", "polish my paper", or mentions their paper needs language improvement for journal submission. Always trigger on any request involving academic English polishing, even if the user doesn't explicitly say "SSCI."

Remove signs of AI-generated writing from academic medical papers. Use when editing or reviewing manuscripts to make them sound more natural and professionally written. Based on Wikipedia's "Signs of AI writing" guide, adapted for medical literature. Detects and fixes patterns including: inflated significance claims, superficial -ing analyses, vague attributions, AI vocabulary words, copula avoidance, excessive hedging, generic conclusions, informal word choices (linked/beyond/via/where/yield), overly assertive causal claims, and artificially condensed expressions. Preserves legitimate academic transitions (Notably, Prior studies have shown, etc.).

21-rule prose review workflow for technical and academic Markdown/LaTeX excerpts. Use when the user asks for muxing-style-review, wants a complete agent-style check combining check-human.md with agent-style audit-only evidence, wants a compact-rule check, wants a DeepSeek/Codex manuscript draft checked for clarity, evidence, citation discipline, terminology, AI-tell prose, or wants an A/B draft comparison. Prefer a dedicated review subagent when available for non-trivial reviews. Use the sibling style-review skill for the upstream post-hoc audit/polish workflow.

Builds statistical plots with the seaborn Python library and pandas DataFrame integration, on attractive matplotlib-based defaults. Use for quick exploration of distributions, relationships, and categorical comparisons — box plots, violin plots, swarm/strip plots, KDE/histograms, pair plots, joint plots, regression plots, correlation heatmaps, and faceted small multiples (relplot/displot/catplot/lmplot). For interactive/hover/zoom charts defer to alterlab-plotly; for exact journal/manuscript styling (column widths, point fonts, CMYK, vector export) defer to alterlab-scientific-viz; for low-level custom matplotlib figures defer to alterlab-matplotlib (seaborn integrates with it for fine-tuning). Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.

Orchestrate the complete post-first-draft polishing pipeline for an academic LaTeX paper by invoking five existing skills in fixed order: (1) paper-polish, (2) paper-self-revise, (3) paper-style, (4) paper-polish again, (5) reference-verify. Trigger when user says "paper pipeline" / "paper-pipeline" / "论文流水线" / "全流程打磨" / "一条龙打磨" / "初稿打磨" / "full polish pipeline" / "run the whole pipeline", or wants the entire post-draft polishing sequence run on a paper folder. Use this skill whenever the user asks for several paper-finishing steps (polish + revise + style + reference check) on one manuscript in one go, even if they don't name every individual skill.

Remove AI writing patterns from prose. Use this skill when writing, drafting, editing, reviewing, or revising any text to eliminate predictable AI tells, slop, and formulaic patterns. Trigger this skill whenever the user asks to "deslop", "de-AI", "make it sound human," "remove AI patterns," "remove AI tropes," "clean up AI writing," fix "slop," "deslop" text, or review prose for authenticity. Also use when the user asks you to write or draft anything and wants it to sound natural rather than AI-generated. Common use cases include scientific writing (manuscripts, abstracts, cover letters, grant narratives, discussion sections, peer review responses), blog posts, newsletters, memos, reports, and any other substantial prose.

English LaTeX academic paper assistant for existing `.tex` projects. Use this skill whenever the user wants to compile, lint, audit, or improve an English LaTeX conference or journal paper such as IEEE, ACM, Springer, NeurIPS, or ICML submissions. Trigger even when the user only mentions one paper issue, such as bibliography errors, grammar cleanup, sentence splitting, logic review, expression polishing, translation, title optimization, figure checks, pseudocode review, algorithm block cleanup, de-AI editing, or experiment-section review. Also trigger for "proofread my paper", "fix my LaTeX", "prepare for submission", "check my manuscript", "improve my writing", `algorithm2e`, `algorithmicx`, `algpseudocodex`, `Require/Ensure`, or "Algorithm 1" when the user has a .tex file.

Prepare, audit, or revise Nature-ready Data Availability statements, data repository plans, dataset citations, and FAIR metadata checklists for manuscripts. Use when the user asks about Nature data availability, research data sharing, repository selection, accession numbers, restricted or sensitive data, source data, supplementary datasets, DataCite-style dataset references, FAIR metadata for academic publication, or Chinese-to-English data availability wording for Chinese-speaking authors preparing Nature-family submissions. Also trigger on general academic-writing data needs even without the word "Nature", such as writing a data availability statement for any journal, code/data sharing sections, repository selection while writing a paper, and Chinese phrasings like 数据可用性声明、数据可用性、 数据共享、代码可用性、学术写作数据声明、写数据声明、数据存放、数据仓库选择.

Guide users through writing a systematic literature review (SLR) following the PRISMA 2020 framework. Use this skill whenever the user mentions 'systematic review', 'systematic literature review', 'SLR', 'PRISMA', 'PRISMA 2020', 'PRISMA flow diagram', 'PRISMA checklist', or asks for help writing, structuring, or auditing a literature review that follows reporting guidelines. Also trigger when the user asks about inclusion/exclusion criteria for a review, search strategies for databases like Scopus/WoS/PubMed, study selection processes, risk of bias assessment, or narrative synthesis for a review paper. This skill covers the full PRISMA 2020 checklist (27 items), produces a Word document manuscript in strict journal article format, generates an annotated PRISMA flow diagram, and enforces APA 7th Edition referencing throughout. It does NOT cover meta-analysis or statistical pooling. By Chuah Kee Man.

Verifies that every entry in a bibliography ACTUALLY EXISTS by cross-checking it against four keyless public scholarly APIs (Crossref, OpenAlex, Semantic Scholar, arXiv) with a polite mailto identifier, resolving DOI/arXiv IDs, fuzzy-matching title and authors (difflib SequenceMatcher ratio >=0.70), flagging retractions marked in Crossref (update-to) or OpenAlex (is_retracted), and emitting per-entry JSON verdicts mapped to the AlterLab citation-hallucination taxonomy (TF/PAC/IH/PH/SH). Accepts BibTeX, a DOI/arXiv ID list, or free-form references; degrades gracefully offline by emitting 'unverified' verdicts and never silently passing. Use when the request mentions verify citations, check references, fabricated or hallucinated references, fake DOI, retraction check, bibliography audit, or reference existence check. Does NOT write or draft papers — for authoring a manuscript (whose citation-check mode inserts citations) prefer alterlab-paper-writer instead. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.
