scientific-writing: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

scientific-writing CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from koljaschoepe/scientific-writing. It costs 1,163 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided workflow for writing academic papers from an initial idea through a structured draft, source assignments, review, LaTeX export, and PDF creation. LaTeX is a text-based system for producing formatted documents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for seminar papers, theses, dissertations, or other academic work that needs chapter planning, source handling, language and argument checks, and a final PDF.
Why use it?
It breaks a large research-writing task into reviewable phases and keeps planning, citations, writing, quality checks, and final formatting organized.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md.

This is koljaschoepe/scientific-writing's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on scientific-writing itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything scientific-writing configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

scientific-writing CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Scientific Writing Framework

Deine wissenschaftliche Arbeit, von der ersten Idee bis zum fertigen PDF.

Du triffst die Entscheidungen und lieferst die Quellen. Claude übernimmt Strukturierung, Kapitelplanung, wissenschaftliches Schreiben, Qualitätsprüfung und LaTeX-Export. Ein durchgehender Workflow für Seminararbeiten, Hausarbeiten, Bachelorarbeiten, Masterarbeiten und Dissertationen. Alles im Terminal, alles in einem Projekt.

Schnellstart

  1. /setup ausführen (einmaliges Interview, ca. 5 Minuten)
  2. /next ausführen (startet die nächste Phase automatisch)
  3. Output prüfen und mit /approve freigeben
  4. Wiederholen bis die Arbeit fertig ist

Workflow

/setup · /next · /approve · /next · ... · /compile · PDF

Phase Was passiert
1 · Brainstorming Thema und Forschungsfragen entwickeln
2 · Gliederung Kapitelstruktur erstellen (danach gesperrt)
3 · Zitat-Zuordnung Quellen den Kapiteln zuweisen
4+5 · Planung + Schreiben Kapitel einzeln planen und direkt schreiben
6 · Qualitätsprüfung Sprache, Zitate, Argumentation (3 Agenten parallel)
7 · Finalisierung LaTeX-Export, Abstract, PDF

Phase 3 wird automatisch übersprungen wenn quellen.workflow: "keine" gesetzt ist.

In Phase 4 und 5 wird verschränkt gearbeitet: Ein Kapitel planen, direkt schreiben, nächstes Kapitel planen, schreiben. Kein stundenlanges Vorausplanen ohne Ergebnis.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
