What it does

Cc Reporting Standards is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use when assembling STAR Methods and the Key Resources Table for a Cancer Cell (Cell Press) manuscript, and when ensuring rigor / reproducibility (cell-line authentication, mycoplasma, antibody validation, ARRIVE animal reporting, data/code deposition). It governs reporting; it does not design experiments.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k 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 Business, Finance & HR, covering Interview preparation and Reproducible research. The repository describes itself as: Comprehensive collection of Claude Code skills for academic research in economics, finance, and social sciences.

When your agent uses it

  • Assembling STAR Methods and the Key Resources Table for a Cancer Cell (Cell Press) manuscript
  • When ensuring rigor / reproducibility (cell-line authentication
  • Antibody validation
  • ARRIVE animal reporting

Example prompts

  • “/cc-reporting-standards”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Key Resources Table (KRT) — at the top; tabulates every critical reagent/resource with source, identifier, and RRID.
  2. Resource availability — Lead contact; Materials availability (plasmids, cell lines, mouse strains); Data and code availability.
  3. Experimental model and study participant details — cell lines, animals, human subjects, organoids/PDX provenance.
  4. Method details — full protocols, reproducible by an expert.
  5. Quantification and statistical analysis — what test, what n, what software (links to cc-statistics).

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9a4b2db. 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

Cc Reporting Standards loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 83 tokens; SKILL.md has 466 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~83
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

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 466 words (~1,202 tokens).

“Cell Press uses STAR Methods (Structured, Transparent, Accessible Reporting). Organize methods under standardized headings:”
