What it does
Template Polish is an agent skill from runtsang/RebuttalStudio. Polish (rephrase) a rebuttal message template for clarity and professionalism while preserving the original structure, tone, and intent.
Its SKILL.md is about 420 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 Research & Science. The repository describes itself as: A rebuttal editor for researchers to craft high-quality academic rebuttals — so you can focus on what to say, not how to format it.
When your agent uses it
- Research & Science work in your project
Example prompts
- “/template-polish”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Preserve original structure: Keep the same paragraph order, greeting, sign-off, and line breaks. Do not merge or split paragraphs.
- Preserve original tone: The input is already semi-formal academic correspondence. Keep a similar level of formality — do not make it…
- Preserve placeholders: Any placeholder tokens such as {{reviewerId}}, {{submissionId}}, or literal X must remain verbatim.
- Keep meaning unchanged: Do not add, remove, or alter the substantive content.
- Light touch: Only rephrase for clarity, conciseness, and naturalness. Avoid adding unnecessary filler words or making the text sound like…
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1f81e2f. 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 (its code samples are json).
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
Template Polish loads about 417 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 38 tokens; SKILL.md has 212 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
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 212 words (~417 tokens).
“Rephrase a rebuttal-related message (e.g. nudge email, status update) so it reads naturally and clearly.”
