What it does

Ngeo Results Framing is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when a Nature Geoscience result is correct but its headline advance and cross-disciplinary significance are not yet sharp. Structures the one-advance narrative and the "Here we show" abstract; does not run analysis or design figures.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Research & Science, covering Physical and earth sciences. The repository describes itself as: Journal-specific Claude Code/Codex skill packs covering mainstream journals — AER, QJE, Nature, Cell, 管理世界, 经济研究 & 200+ more — your fast track to getting published. | 覆盖主流期刊的… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • A Nature Geoscience result is correct but its headline advance and cross-disciplinary significance are not yet sharp
  • Tasks that involve Physical and earth sciences

Example prompts

  • “Here we show”
  • “/ngeo-results-framing”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Background / why the question matters — one to three sentences a non-specialist Earth scientist grasps.
  2. The gap or controversy — what was unknown, unresolved, or assumed.
  3. "Here we show ..." — the headline advance, stated plainly with the key quantitative result and its uncertainty.
  4. Mechanism / interpretation — what the result means physically.
  5. Broad implication — the consequence for the wider Earth system or a neighboring field.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 932eb23. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Ngeo Results Framing loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 641 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~65
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.4k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Nature Geoscience Results Framing (ngeo-results-framing)

When to trigger

  • You have the data/model output but the "so what for the Earth system" is fuzzy
  • The draft reads like a chronological expedition or model-run report, not a single argument
  • You have several findings and have not chosen the headline one
  • The opening buries the result under a literature or regional-setting tour
  • ngeo-scope-fit returned a Nature Geoscience verdict but flagged the breadth framing as weak

The one-advance discipline

A Nature Geoscience Article makes one headline advance. Everything else is support. Decide the headline result first; demote the rest to corroboration, to the online Methods, or to Supplementary Information.

  • Primary advance — the single sentence the title and abstract both encode, phrased as what the Earth system does, not what you measured.
  • Supporting results — at most two or three, and only if they reinforce the primary one.
  • Everything else — regional context, extended sensitivity tests, secondary proxies → SI (see ngeo-supplementary).

If you have two co-equal advances, you likely have two papers, or one belongs in a community journal.

The abstract: the "Here we show" convention

Nature abstracts follow a recognizable arc and are capped at 200 words, unreferenced (verify). The house pattern:

  1. Background / why the question matters — one to three sentences a non-specialist Earth scientist grasps.
  2. The gap or controversy — what was unknown, unresolved, or assumed.
  3. "Here we show ..." — the headline advance, stated plainly with the key quantitative result and its uncertainty.
  4. Mechanism / interpretation — what the result means physically.
  5. Broad implication — the consequence for the wider Earth system or a neighboring field.

Lead into the advance with the literal "Here we show" (or a close equivalent); Nature editors and readers expect it, and it forces finding-first framing.

The opening (first paragraphs carry the gate)

The main-text opening front-loads significance, not setting. A reliable arc:

  1. The Earth-system context — one or two sentences on the first-order process at stake.
  2. The open question / controversy — the specific unknown, framed as a scientific problem, not a regional description.
  3. What this study shows — the headline advance with the key number.
  4. Why it matters across the field — the cross-disciplinary consequence.

Do not open with the study region's geography or a paragraph of instrument history. The advance should be legible within the first paragraph.

Framing decision branches

SymptomMove
Two co-equal headline advancesSplit, or demote one to support / SI
Result stated only operationally ("we measured X")Reframe as the Earth-system conclusion it implies
Significance asserted, not shownTie it to a first-order question or a prior belief it changes
Regional setting dominates the openingCut to 1–2 sentences; move detail to Methods / SI
Abstract lists methods before findingsReorder: "Here we show ..." first, method as an enabling clause
Overreaching climate/impact claimCalibrate to what the evidence and uncertainty license

Checklist

  • Exactly one primary advance, expressible in one sentence
  • Title (≤ ~90 characters) encodes the advance, not just the topic or region
  • Abstract uses "Here we show" and leads with the finding + its uncertainty
  • Abstract is unreferenced and within the ~200-word limit
  • Opening reaches the result within the first paragraph or two
  • Significance is tied to a first-order question or belief it changes
  • Interpretation (mechanism) is stated, not just the observation
  • Supporting results (≤3) genuinely reinforce the primary one

Anti-patterns

  • A "kitchen-sink" Article that reports every measurement the campaign produced
  • Operational framing ("we observe X in region Y") with no mechanistic interpretation
  • Significance claims that overreach beyond the data and its uncertainty
  • An abstract that is a methods or fieldwork summary rather than a result statement
  • A title naming the region and method instead of the advance
  • Saving the punchline for a "conclusions" paragraph the reader may never reach

Output format

【Primary advance】one sentence (Earth-system framing)
【Title】≤ ~90 chars, encodes the advance?  yes / fix
【Abstract】"Here we show" + finding + uncertainty, ≤200 words, unreferenced?
【Opening moves】context / gap / advance / broad significance — all present?
【Supporting results】≤3, each justified
【Demoted to Methods / SI】list
【Next】ngeo-methods (grounding) or ngeo-figures (lead figure)

Abstract and title conventions are durable; verify the current word/character limits and the "Here we show" guidance on the official Nature Geoscience author pages (Checked: 2026-07-16).
