Statistical Writing (One Skill)

This is a single "workbench" skill for statistical manuscripts written in LaTeX.

Guidance is split into focused references under references/. Deterministic checks live in scripts/. Ready-to-use templates live in assets/.

Positioning: Hybrid + JDS profile

Default behavior is journal-agnostic. For Journal of Data Science (JDS), apply the JDS profile:

• Maintain strong literature positioning and explicit novelty.
• Require clean cross-referencing and cleaned BibTeX.
• Prefer vector graphics for figures in the manuscript.
• Enable line numbers for review drafts.
• Include reproducibility artifacts (code/data/supplement) when possible.

When to use this skill

Use this skill when the user wants to:

1. Generate compliant front matter (title, abstract, keywords).
2. Expand outlines into complete sections in LaTeX.
3. Audit a manuscript for structure, style, references, and reproducibility quality.
4. Draft reviewer reports.
5. Draft point-by-point response letters.
6. Scaffold a book manuscript from a chapter plan.

Inputs to ask for (minimal)

Prefer file paths over pasted text.

• Manuscript tasks: root TeX file (for example main.tex).
• Reference checks: BibTeX file(s) (for example refs.bib).
• Response letters: full reviewer/editor comments + revised text if available.
• Reviewer report: manuscript or extended abstract being reviewed.
• Book manuscript: chapter list, audience, tone, and desired notation style.

If details are missing, proceed with placeholders like odo{...} and ask only critical questions.

Output conventions

Unless the user requests otherwise:

• Return LaTeX-ready output.
• For audits: rank issues as HIGH/MED/LOW with concrete fixes.
• For rewrites: include revised text and short change log.
• Never invent results or citations. Use odo{add citation} or odo{verify result}.

Task routing map

Open only the reference files needed for the task.

• Title: references/10-title.md
• Abstract: references/11-abstract.md
• Keywords: references/12-keywords.md
• Outline to section drafting: references/60-outline-to-section.md
• Introduction: references/20-introduction.md
• Data: references/21-data.md
• Methods: references/22-methods.md
• Simulation (ADEMP): references/23-simulation.md
• Application/Results: references/24-application.md
• Discussion: references/25-discussion.md
• Other sections: references/30-other-sections.md
• General style/storyline: references/31-general-style.md
• English pitfalls: references/32-english.md
• BibTeX/natbib: references/40-bibtex-natbib.md
• Labels/cross-references: references/41-cross-referencing.md
• Reviewer report: references/50-review-report.md
• Response to reviewers: references/51-response-to-reviewers.md
• Research proposal/project cycle: references/70-project-proposal.md
• Book manuscript workflow: references/71-book-manuscript.md
• Tooling/reproducibility: references/80-tooling.md

Built-in assets

• Response letter (LaTeX): assets/response-letter-template.tex
• Reviewer report (Markdown): assets/reviewer-report-template.md
• Reviewer report (LaTeX): assets/reviewer-report-template.tex
• Generic section skeleton: assets/section-skeleton.tex
• Manuscript starter (LaTeX): assets/manuscript-template.tex
• Book manuscript starter (LaTeX): assets/book-manuscript-template.tex

Optional scripts (deterministic checks)

• Manuscript checks: python scripts/check_tex.py path/to/main.tex
• Citation/BibTeX checks: python scripts/check_bib.py --tex path/to/main.tex --bib path/to/refs.bib
• Combined run: python scripts/audit_paper.py --tex path/to/main.tex --bib path/to/refs.bib

These checks are heuristic and do not compile LaTeX.

Workflows

Workflow A - Finished paper to abstract + keywords

1. Read introduction/methods/results/discussion.
2. Use references/11-abstract.md and references/12-keywords.md.
3. Draft abstract (default 6-8 sentences, acceptable 4-10, no citations, no math notation).
4. Draft 6-10 keywords, alphabetized, avoid repeating title terms.
5. Return:
   • egin{abstract}...nd{abstract}
   • \keywords{...} (or venue-specific command)
   • short compliance checklist.
