What it does

Mind Structure And Exposition is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use when organizing a Mind article so the argument unfolds in the clearest possible order within the ~8,000-word limit. The job is architecture, not prose polish — a roadmap, the right order of premises, signposting, and a conclusion that claims exactly what was earned. Structures the paper; it does not write the sentences (see mind-writing-style).

Its SKILL.md is about 980 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 Writing & Content, covering Brand voice and tone. 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

  • Organizing a Mind article so the argument unfolds in the clearest possible order within the ~8
  • Tasks that involve Brand voice and tone

Example prompts

  • “/mind-structure-and-exposition”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Introduction — state the thesis and why it matters in the opening paragraphs; sketch the
  2. Setup — fix terminology and the target view (from mind-literature-positioning and
  3. The argument — present the premises in the order that makes the inference feel forced; defend
  4. Objections and replies — place each objection where it naturally arises, or gather them in a
  5. Conclusion — restate what was established (and only that), note scope, and gesture at the

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

Mind Structure And Exposition loads about 978 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 95 tokens; SKILL.md has 455 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~95
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~978

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 455 words (~978 tokens).

“A Mind reader should never be lost about what is being claimed, why, and where they are. A strong argument poorly arranged reads as confused; the same argument well arranged reads as inevitable. This skill is about architecture — the…”
