journal-formatting

journal-formatting is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from equinor/neqsim. It costs 15 tokens per session (4,248 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of journal_formatting, Apache-2.0.

A formatting workflow that turns a Markdown manuscript into a journal-ready LaTeX or Word document. It applies journal-specific layout and citation rules and keeps book formatting on a separate pipeline.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to format a new paper, prepare a resubmission for another journal, or check manuscript compliance with journal guidelines.
Why use it?
It reduces manual work and helps catch mismatches with a journal's submission requirements before sending a paper.

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

journal-formatting 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 27d 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.

Skill: Journal Formatting

Purpose

Apply journal-specific formatting rules to transform a manuscript from Markdown into a submission-ready LaTeX or Word document.

When to Use

  • Final formatting before submission
  • Converting between journal formats (e.g., rejected → resubmit elsewhere)
  • Checking manuscript compliance with journal guidelines

Scope: Journal Papers Only (Not Books)

This skill and the --journal profiles apply only to single-manuscript journal papers built with the paperflow new / draft / format / render pipeline (papers/). The journal latex_class and citation_style metadata drive the paper renderer in tools/paper_renderer.py.

Books are a separate pipeline and do NOT use journal profiles. A book lives under books/<slug>/, is configured by book.yaml (not a journal YAML), and is produced by paperflow book-render --format {pdf|docx|html|epub|odf} via the dedicated tools/book_render_* renderers:

Format Book renderer Engine
PDF book_render_pdf.py Typst (auto-generated preamble)
Word book_render_word.py python-docx
HTML book_render_html.py custom HTML template
EPUB book_render_epub.py pandoc
ODF book_render_odf.py odfpy
JATS/DocBook book_render_xml.py (via book-render-xml) pandoc

cmd_book_render never calls load_journal_profile, so --journal, elsarticle/achemso classes, and the compliance checks below are irrelevant to books. Style books through book.yaml and the book_render_* engines instead. The shared building blocks between the two pipelines are bibliography handling (refs.bib, Crossref enrichment) and the equation/figure utilities in tools/math_utils.py — not the journal class machinery.

Supported Journals

Each journal has a YAML profile in journals/. Run python paperflow.py list-journals to print this list with the exact --journal names. Currently supported (10 profiles):

Journal --journal name Publisher LaTeX Class Citation Style

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.
