At a glance
Helps draft, diagnose, review and revise social science papers, from topic and research question to literature review, citation risks and pre-submission checks.
- Works in 4 steps: Identify the user's task and choose one… → Load references/key_principles.md when… → Load the relevant reference only when… → …
- Diagnosing whether a paper topic is researchable and focused
- SKILL.md covers First Move, Operating Modes, Mode Execution Protocols and Source Discipline, plus 8 more sections
- Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
What it does
The skill picks one operating mode per task, such as topic diagnosis, research question refinement, outline building or literature review planning, and loads only the reference file that fits. References cover research design, data collection, data analysis, citation safety and a literature search workflow, with templates for revision reports and literature review matrices. Norms drawn from a course are marked as such and kept apart from general academic writing suggestions.
The literature workflow covers searching Chinese and English sources with CNKI and Google Scholar, importing records into Zotero, making structured paper notes and drafting a review only from verified sources. The skill also checks citation and evidence risks and causal claims, and applies a Missing Information Rule when you have not supplied enough to judge. It is not meant for purely creative writing or non-academic editing.
When your agent uses it
- Diagnosing whether a paper topic is researchable and focused
- Planning a literature review and moving CNKI or Google Scholar results into Zotero
- Reviewing a draft for weak causal claims, citations and evidence
- Revising a section or running a pre-submission check
Example prompts
- “Diagnose my topic on remote work and wellbeing and suggest sharper research questions.”
- “Review this methods section and flag where the causal claims go beyond the design.”
- “Plan the literature review for my paper on rural education policy and set up a Zotero search workflow.”
Requirements
- Zotero for importing literature records
- CNKI or Google Scholar search tools, where available
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Identify the user's task and choose one operating mode below.
- Load references/key_principles.md when the user asks for course-supported norms, source attribution, a full paper/section diagnosis, or…
- Load the relevant reference only when needed
- If information is missing, apply the Missing Information Rule before drafting or judging.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6f4e06d. 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 (its code samples are markdown).
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
Social Science Paper Writing loads about 7k tokens when it runs, and up to ~26k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 138 tokens; SKILL.md has 3,252 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 3,252 words (~6,980 tokens).
“This skill helps write, diagnose, and revise social science academic papers. It is built around course-derived norms in references/key_principles.md plus clearly marked general academic writing suggestions.”
