What it does

Wp Writing Style is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use when drafting or polishing a World Politics manuscript so it reads across cases, follows the World Politics house style, and fits the limits (≤ 12,500 words including notes and references; abstract ≤ 150 words; online supplement ≤ 15 pages). Manuscripts are double spaced with the word count indicated and anonymized for triple-blind review. Tightens prose and format; it does not invent content.

Its SKILL.md is about 940 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

  • Polishing a World Politics manuscript so it reads across cases
  • Follows the World Politics house style
  • Fits the limits (≤ 12
  • 500 words including notes and references

Example prompts

  • “/wp-writing-style”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Front-load the contribution. By the end of the introduction the reader knows the question, the
  2. Define case-specific terms. Spell out country/region-specific institutions and acronyms; do not
  3. Argument-first prose. Lead with claims; use evidence to support them. Avoid "the data show…"
  4. Signpost. Clear section structure so a reader can follow theory → design → findings.

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

Wp Writing Style loads about 944 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 104 tokens; SKILL.md has 388 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~104
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~944

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 388 words (~944 tokens).

“A World Politics article must read for a comparative-politics and IR audience that works on other cases, follow the World Politics house style (author-date), and respect the word limit. This skill is about reaching across cases and respecting the format…”
