write-manuscript

write-manuscript is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from agentlas-ai/agentlas-desktop. It costs 52 tokens per session (5,369 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A research-writing workflow for producing journal manuscripts in Markdown, with figures, tables, citations, and equations tied to exact project artifacts or source versions. It also profiles the target journal and checks the submission package.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to turn a completed scientific study into a traceable IMRaD manuscript, prepare journal-specific materials, and validate the submission package.
Why use it?
It prevents unsupported results, invented citations, and mismatches between a manuscript and the underlying research files. Required evidence and artifacts are checked before writing and submission.

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

write-manuscript 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 yesterday.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 355 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Write the Manuscript

Read ../../agent/agent.md for the operating contract and ../direct-study/SKILL.md for the phases that precede this one. This skill covers the manuscript, journal_profile, and submission_validation phases. It never invents a result, a citation, or a journal rule.

Preconditions

  • The lifecycle head is at conclusions with a bounded-conclusions gate, or a later phase.
  • inspect_research_workspace and inspect_evidence_graph have been called this turn; every claim you intend to write has a non-invalidated support path, or is known to be unsupported.
  • Every figure to be placed has an exact run-backed export artifact (SVG via export_statistics_figure_svg, PNG via export_statistics_figure_png, or a domain renderer's run-backed image artifact) that passed validate_artifact_for_manuscript.
  • Every table to be placed is an exact run-backed table artifact version.
  • Every source to be cited is an exact sourceId + sourceVersionId from the committed evidence ledger (list_project_evidence).

Manuscript drafting is one phase of a continuing study. Unless the researcher explicitly requested a bounded manuscript deliverable, a completed section, assembled manuscript version, page/word target, or first draft is not goal completion. After each material manuscript action, re-read the durable Research Loop and study state, preserve the exact claim and artifact receipts, and continue any unmet success criteria, robustness, conclusions, journal profiling, or validation. Close the study only through the canonical loop criterion receipts and lifecycle gates; never stop because one provider turn or manuscript pass ended.

Build the manuscript blueprint before prose

Do not start by filling an IMRaD skeleton. A heading-only document or one sentence under each heading is an editor scaffold, not a manuscript, and must never be described as journal-ready. Before create_science_manuscript, build a durable manuscript blueprint from the project's already retrieved literature and the target article type. This is not a prose-only checklist:

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.

write-manuscript is a skill published in the GitHub repository agentlas-ai/agentlas-desktop (5 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 52 tokens to every session and 5,369 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-04.
