scientific-writing
95 / 100 · Low risk
Fine to try.
Core skill for the deep research and writing tool. Write scientific manuscripts in full paragraphs (never bullet points). Use two-stage process with (1) section outlines with key points using research-lookup then (2) convert to flowing prose. IMRAD structure, citations (APA/AMA/Vancouver), figures/tables, reporting guidelines (CONSORT/STROBE/PRISMA), for research papers and journal submissions.

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'scientific-writing' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'scientific-writing' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named scientific-writing already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/lamm-mit/scienceclaw' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '894598cd3a90891a077c254566276bd379038bad' -- 'skills/scientific-writing' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/scientific-writing' ~/.agents/skills/'scientific-writing' && rm -rf "$d"; fi
Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'scientific-writing' ~/.claude/skills/'scientific-writing' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
