Overview

Scientific Writing

This skill produces research manuscripts by combining AI-driven literature search with formatted scientific writing. It writes manuscripts using IMRAD structure, applies citation styles (APA, AMA, Vancouver), includes figures and tables, and applies reporting guidelines (CONSORT, STROBE, PRISMA). Every document includes verified citations through integrated research-lookup. Use this skill when preparing research papers for journal submission or writing manuscripts that require systematic literature review and formal scientific structure. Apply it when you need comprehensive literature backing and verified citations for communicating research with precision and clarity.

What it does

This skill combines AI-driven deep research with formatted scientific writing to produce research manuscripts backed by comprehensive literature search and verified citations. It writes manuscripts using IMRAD structure, applies citation styles (APA, AMA, Vancouver), includes figures and tables, and applies reporting guidelines including CONSORT, STROBE, and PRISMA.

When to use - and when NOT to

Use this skill when preparing research papers for journal submission, writing manuscripts that require systematic literature review, or communicating research with precision and clarity. Apply it when you need verified citations and comprehensive literature backing for your research communication.

Do not use this skill for informal research summaries, blog posts, or communications that do not require formal scientific structure and citation standards.

Inputs and outputs

You provide your research topic, data, and findings. The skill performs comprehensive literature search through the research-lookup skill and delivers well-formatted manuscripts structured according to IMRAD (Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion), complete with properly formatted citations in your chosen style (APA, AMA, or Vancouver), figures and tables, and application of relevant reporting guidelines (CONSORT for clinical trials, STROBE for observational studies, PRISMA for systematic reviews).

Integrations

This skill integrates with the research-lookup skill to perform comprehensive literature searches and verify all citations included in the output documents.

Who it's for

Researchers preparing manuscripts for peer-reviewed journal submission will use this to ensure their work meets publication standards. Academic scientists conducting systematic reviews or meta-analyses benefit from the PRISMA guideline application. Clinical researchers running trials or observational studies use it to apply CONSORT and STROBE reporting guidelines. Graduate students and postdoctoral fellows writing their first papers gain support through the IMRAD format and citation management.

Source README

This is the core skill for the deep research and writing tool-combining AI-driven deep research with well-formatted written outputs. Every document produced is backed by comprehensive literature search and verified citations through the research-lookup skill.

Scientific writing is a process for communicating research with precision and clarity. Write manuscripts using IMRAD structure, citations (APA/AMA/Vancouver), figures/tables, and reporting guidelines (CONSORT/STROBE/PRISMA). Apply this skill for research papers and journal submissions.
