if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'publication-coach' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'publication-coach' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named publication-coach already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/franklee16/academic-research-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '9a4b2db21fc4b217136ae4a0e6faad42d179ca03' -- 'review-revise/publication-coach' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'review-revise/publication-coach' ~/.agents/skills/'publication-coach' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
