Drafts the Introduction of a technical paper as six paragraphs of flowing prose, positioning the work and matching contributions to challenges, with an outline on request.
- Works in 6 steps: paper-type positioning (internal) → plan the six paragraphs (internal) → the running example (internal) → …
- Drafting the Introduction of a technical paper from a research idea
- SKILL.md covers Overview, Evidence rules (inherited), When to use this skill and When NOT to use this skill, plus 7 more sections
- Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
What it does
From a handful of inputs (research area, existing limitations, key idea, challenges, solution overview and optional references), the skill writes a technical paper's Introduction as six paragraphs of real prose. An internal flowchart covers background with a running example, limitations, problem essence and goal, challenges, solution overview and contributions, but it never shows in the output, which carries no headings, tags or consistency reports. An outline mode is available when you ask for one.
It positions the paper as either a Technique paper or a New Problem or Setting paper and lines up each contribution with a challenge. An evidence discipline applies: every claim must trace to your materials, to verified retrieval in the session or to common field knowledge, never to model memory, and details you did not give are left out instead of invented. It is built for STEM and technical papers, so benchmark papers, other sections and polishing go to sibling skills such as paper-writer and paper-polish. The licence is CC-BY-NC-SA-4.0, which limits commercial use.
When your agent uses it
- Drafting the Introduction of a technical paper from a research idea
- Outlining or restructuring an Introduction
- Weaving pasted references into an Introduction
Example prompts
- “Draft the Introduction for my paper on adaptive index tuning from these notes.”
- “Outline the Introduction instead of writing it out.”
- “Restructure my current Introduction so the contributions match the challenges.”
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- paper-type positioning (internal)
- plan the six paragraphs (internal)
- the running example (internal)
- alignment checks (internal, before writing)
- write the prose
- a short closing note (optional, three lines at most)
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 207bc6f. 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
Paper Introduction Drafter loads about 2.4k tokens when it runs, and up to ~13k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 126 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,283 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
Its licence (CC-BY-NC-SA-4.0) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,283 words (~2,425 tokens).
“The Introduction is the compressed version of the entire paper. In one and a half to two pages it must state the research object, why the problem matters, why existing work falls short, what the paper contributes, and how the…”
