A Skill for academic writing and research illustrations that conform to Nature journal standards.
About the project
Nature Skills is a collection of reusable skills that help AI agents handle academic writing and scientific visualization. Researchers and AI-assisted scholars use it to turn research tasks into repeatable workflows and usable outputs. The catalogue entries are skills from this collection.
Add strict Nature/CNS citations to manuscript text by splitting long passages into citable segments, searching only accepted flagship and subjournal titles from Nature Portfolio, the AAAS Science family, and Cell Press, filtering by publication time range, and exporting one reference-manager-ready output by default.…
Prepare, audit, or revise Nature-ready Data Availability statements, data repository plans, dataset citations, and FAIR metadata checklists for manuscripts. Use when the user asks about Nature data availability, research data sharing, repository selection, accession numbers, restricted or sensitive data, source data…
Use when a user needs lawful academic full text, CNKI institutional access, English OA retrieval, publisher API access, institutional browser fallback, or supporting information downloads.
A workflow for turning experiment notes, images, audio, or text into structured Markdown laboratory logs with YAML metadata. It can also organize raw attachments and optionally connect the logs to Feishu or Obsidian.
Create, revise, audit, and export submission-grade scientific figures for Nature-family and other high-impact venues in Python (matplotlib/seaborn) or R (ggplot2/patchwork/ComplexHeatmap), including multi-panel plots, figures4papers-style work, and journal-ready SVG/PDF/TIFF outputs. Use for paper or scientific plots…
Convert slide images, screenshots, scanned PDFs, and image-only PPT/PPTX files into high-fidelity object-level editable PowerPoint, including semantic-region mixed reconstruction, measured flowcharts and knowledge graphs, native circle nodes and connectors, single-object thin and filled arrows, speaker-note…
Complete automated literature discovery pipeline: multi-source search → six-dimension scoring → fine reading → formatted delivery → archival. Combines a configurable engine with daily cron-driven application layer. Works with Feishu, Telegram, or any messaging platform.
Build a source-grounded deep-reading Paper Card for one scientific paper, preprint, PDF, DOI, arXiv page, publisher article, or pasted paper text. Use when the user asks for a Paper Card, deep-reading literature card, single-paper deep analysis, module-by-module analysis, experiment-to-claim evidence chain…
Convert scientific papers, theses, technical reports, source code, figures, inventor notes, or research manuscripts into evidence-grounded Chinese invention patent drafts and attorney-facing technical disclosure materials. Use when an AI agent must mine patent points, draft or revise a Chinese technical disclosure…
A workflow for turning a scientific paper, preprint, PDF, article, figure legends, or reading notes into a complete Chinese PowerPoint presentation. It is designed for journal clubs, group meetings, thesis seminars, conferences, defences, and paper-sharing talks.
Polish, restructure, or translate academic prose into concise Nature-leaning English while preserving facts, evidence boundaries, terminology, and citation intent. Use for manuscript paragraphs, abstracts, introductions, Results, discussions, conclusions, titles, Methods, Chinese drafts, proofreading, language…
Proposal-first scientific writing pipeline, installed under the compatibility trigger researchwrite and the repository package name nature-proposal-writer. Use for composing, revising, or auditing research proposals, opening reports, research plans, and evidence-grounded scientific writing. Three modes…
A tool for creating Chinese-English, side-by-side readers from research papers. It can work from PDFs, DOI links, arXiv papers, publisher webpages, or pasted text, while keeping figures, tables, and equations connected to the surrounding explanation.
A reference-checking workflow that compares bibliographic details across multiple sources. Bibliographic details include authors, title, year, volume, issue, pages, and DOI, the persistent identifier for a research publication.
A tool for simulating peer review of a research paper from the reviewer’s point of view. Peer review is the process in which experts assess a paper before publication.
Internal shared-reference support package for installed Nature Skills, including nature-writing, nature-polishing, nature-response, nature-reader, and nature-paper2ppt. Do not invoke it as a standalone user workflow. Load only the specific core or journal-format file requested by another Nature skill.
Audit, revise, or draft manuscript statistical reporting for Nature / high-impact journal submissions. Use when the user asks to check statistical analysis sections, p values, confidence intervals, sample size, biological versus technical replicates, randomization, blinding, multiple-comparison correction, model…
Draft, restructure, or plan Nature-style manuscript sections and initial-submission materials from author-provided claims, results, figures, notes, or Chinese drafts. Use for abstracts, introductions, related work, methods, Results or experiments, discussions, conclusions, titles, full manuscript arguments, and…
At most 3 mods per repository are shown here, and a mod shipped inside a plugin is left to that plugin's page — the rest are on their repository pages:
