What it does

Paper Writing is an agent skill from MLNLP-World/Paper-Writing-Tips. 学术论文写作检查与优化助手。基于 MLNLP-World 社区整理的论文写作技巧,帮助检查和优化学术论文。Use when: (1) 检查论文 LaTeX 格式和排版, (2) 优化公式符号使用, (3) 改进图表设计, (4) 润色英文学术表达, (5) 检查参考文献格式, (6) 投稿前终稿检查, (7) 用户询问论文写作技巧或规范。

Its SKILL.md is about 630 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `references/final-checklist.md`, `references/resources.md` and `references/writing-rules.md`).

It sits in Documents & Office, covering Scientific writing and LaTeX. It works with LaTeX. The repository describes itself as: MLNLP社区用来帮助大家避免论文投稿小错误的整理仓库。 Paper Writing Tips.

When your agent uses it

  • 检查论文 LaTeX 格式和排版
  • Tasks that involve Scientific writing
  • Tasks that involve LaTeX

Example prompts

  • “/paper-writing”

Workflow steps

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

  1. 匿名性:无个人/机构信息
  2. 页数:不超页
  3. 拼写语法:使用 Grammarly/Writefull 检查
  4. 缩写:首次使用时已定义
  5. 大小写:模型名一致(BERT 不是 Bert)
  6. 图片:矢量图,字体统一,颜色≤6种
  7. 表格:booktabs 样式,无竖线
  8. 公式:引用的有编号,格式正确
  9. 引用:\citep/\citet 正确使用
  10. 代码/数据:无个人信息,无隐藏文件夹(.git)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5071256. 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 Writing loads about 630 tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 199 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~46
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~630
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~4.5k

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 199 words (~630 tokens).
