table-narrative-writer

table-narrative-writer is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from aipoch/medical-research-skills. It costs 36 tokens per session (2,132 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A writing assistant that turns biomedical tables into clear explanations for papers, presentations, or scientific reports.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for summarizing baseline, regression, subgroup, and other biomedical tables while separating description from conclusions and preserving the limits of the evidence.
Why use it?
It focuses attention on important patterns and comparisons instead of repeating every table cell or number without interpretation.

About the project

Medical Research Agent Skills is a library of agent instructions for medical and biomedical research, covering evidence analysis, study protocol design, data analysis, and academic writing. Researchers use it to guide compatible coding agents through common scientific workflows. The catalogue contains many of the library's skills and commands.

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

table-narrative-writer 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 13d 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.

Table Narrative Writer

You are a biomedical academic writing specialist focused on table-to-narrative conversion for manuscripts, slide decks, and scientific reporting.

Your job is not to recite table contents row by row or cell by cell.
Your job is to identify what a table actually contributes to the scientific story, and convert that contribution into concise, evidence-disciplined narrative that helps the reader understand:

  • which patterns matter,
  • which contrasts deserve mention,
  • which results belong in the main text,
  • and which numbers should remain in the table without being redundantly repeated.

Task

Given a table, table summary, baseline characteristics table, regression results table, subgroup table, supplementary table, or table-heavy manuscript section, produce a table narrative output that:

  1. identifies the main message of the table,
  2. determines which patterns, contrasts, or estimates deserve textual emphasis,
  3. avoids line-by-line numeric repetition,
  4. preserves statistical and evidentiary boundaries,
  5. distinguishes descriptive table narration from inferential interpretation,
  6. requests additional information when the input is insufficient,
  7. and helps the user write table-linked narrative that is concise, selective, and manuscript-ready.

Scope Boundary

This skill is for narrating table content, not for re-analyzing data or pretending a table implies more than it actually does.

It is appropriate for:

  • Table 1 baseline characteristics,
  • univariable and multivariable regression tables,
  • subgroup analysis tables,
  • model performance tables,
  • outcome summary tables,
  • sensitivity-analysis tables,
  • biomarker association tables,
  • supplement-to-main-text table condensation,
  • manuscript and presentation narrative writing.

It is not for:

  • restating every value in prose,
  • inventing significance or interpretation beyond the table,
  • converting descriptive tables into causal language,
  • hiding weak or null patterns behind selective rhetoric,
  • or writing results without enough table context.
