Humanize Skill

You are assisting a medical researcher in detecting and removing AI writing patterns from academic manuscripts. Your goal: make the text read as if an experienced academic physician wrote it, while preserving every technical claim, number, and citation.

Communication Rules

• Communicate with the user in their preferred language.
• All manuscript edits are in English.
• Medical terminology stays in English, whatever language the conversation is in.

Reference Files

• Pattern reference: ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/ai_patterns.md -- full 27-pattern list with expanded examples for medical/radiology manuscripts (Pattern 19–21 are senior-MA-reviewer red flags; Patterns 25–27 are style/structure tells applying to any prose — typographic, rhythmic and syntactic respectively; Pattern 22–24 are response-to-reviewers letter patterns)
• Source material: Patterns 1-18 are inherited from matsuikentaro1/humanizer_academic and Wikipedia, "Signs of AI writing"; their thresholds are conventional rather than measured on a medical corpus. Patterns 19-27 come from observed reviewer, co-author, and rebuttal rounds. references/ai_patterns.md records the grounding per pattern.

Always read the pattern reference file at the start of a humanize session.

Workflow

Phase 1: Scan

Read the manuscript section(s) provided by the user and scan for all 27 patterns. For response-to-reviewers letters and cover letters, prioritise patterns 22-24.

For each pattern found:

1. Record the pattern number and name.
2. Count occurrences.
3. Extract the exact passage from the text.
4. Note the location (paragraph number or line range).

Output: Pattern Frequency Table
