nature-shared

yuan1z0825/nature-skills

Internal reference library for Nature Skills—load only as a dependency, not standalone.

What is nature-shared?

This is a shared-reference support package for other Nature Skills (nature-writing, nature-polishing, nature-response, nature-reader, nature-paper2ppt). It provides modular definitions for journal formats, research compliance, and Nature-style writing patterns. Install only if you have another Nature Skill installed; do not use directly.

  • Supplies journal-format templates (Nature, Nature Machine Intelligence, and others) for dependent skills
  • Provides core writing guidance on abstracts, introductions, results, and discussions aligned to Nature corpus patterns
  • Includes research-compliance and main-text discipline modules for specialist use cases
  • Offers discussion-argument language and evidence-calibration patterns for journal-general contexts
  • Loads only the specific file requested by another Nature skill to avoid unnecessary overhead

How to install nature-shared

npx skills add https://github.com/yuan1z0825/nature-skills --skill nature-shared
Prerequisites
  • At least one other Nature Skill (nature-writing, nature-polishing, nature-response, nature-reader, or nature-paper2ppt) must be installed
  • This package is not functional as a standalone workflow

How to use nature-shared

  1. 1.Install via the parent Nature Skill that depends on it (e.g., npx skills add nature-writing)
  2. 2.Do not invoke nature-shared directly; it loads automatically when a dependent skill requests a specific file
  3. 3.Access journal-format or core guidance only through the requesting skill's task logic

Use cases

Good for
  • Supporting nature-writing skill to generate Nature-compliant manuscript sections
  • Providing journal-format constraints to nature-polishing during revision workflows
  • Supplying Nature-style argument patterns to nature-response for rebuttal composition
  • Enabling nature-reader to reference journal-specific article-type limits and data duties
  • Backing nature-paper2ppt with Nature-aligned content structure for slide generation
Who it's for
  • Researchers writing for Nature, Nature Machine Intelligence, or related journals
  • Authors using other Nature Skills who need consistent journal-format reference data
  • Teams automating manuscript preparation with Nature-aligned guidance

nature-shared FAQ

Can I use nature-shared on its own?

No. This is an internal dependency package. Install and use one of the Nature Skills (nature-writing, nature-polishing, nature-response, nature-reader, or nature-paper2ppt) instead.

Which journal formats does nature-shared cover?

It includes templates for Nature, Nature Machine Intelligence, and other journal formats. The requesting skill determines which format to load.

What is the difference between core/ and journal-formats/ files?

journal-formats/ contains journal-specific article types, limits, and submission requirements. core/ contains general writing patterns (abstracts, introductions, results, discussions) applicable across Nature-family journals.

Will this slow down my workflow?

No. nature-shared loads only the specific file requested by another skill, not the entire package.

Do I need to understand the internal structure?

No. The requesting skill handles all task logic and output formatting. You interact only with the parent Nature Skill.

name: nature-shared description: Internal shared-reference support package for installed Nature Skills, including nature-writing, nature-polishing, nature-response, nature-reader, and nature-paper2ppt. Do not invoke it as a standalone user workflow. Load only the specific core or journal-format file requested by another Nature skill.

Nature Shared References

Use this package only as a dependency of another installed Nature skill.

  • Load the exact referenced file; do not preload the whole package.
  • Treat core/ and journal-formats/ as shared definitions, not standalone workflows.
  • Use journal-formats/nature.md only for the flagship journal Nature and core/research-compliance.md only when its specialist applicability gate is triggered.
  • Use journal-formats/nature-machine-intelligence.md for exact NMI article types, limits, initial-submission files, data/code duties and production requirements; do not import flagship Nature or Nature Communications limits.
  • Use core/main-text-discipline.md for result placement, main-text compression, revision accretion, caption/SI allocation, and claim-repetition checks.
  • Use core/nature-results-discussion.md for corpus-derived Nature-style Results claim escalation, evidence-bound local interpretation, and Discussion synthesis; do not present it as official journal policy.
  • Use core/discussion-argument-language.md for journal-general Discussion function sequencing, reverse-funnel control, evidence-calibrated modality, claim-specific limitations, and uncertainty-driven future work.
  • Use core/nature-introduction.md for corpus-derived Nature-style problem funnels, exact knowledge gaps, literature tension, question-first novelty, and Introduction–Results alignment; do not present it as official journal policy.
  • Use core/nature-abstract.md for corpus-derived Nature-style discovery-centred abstract compression, claim hierarchy, selective numeric support, and field-level payoff; do not present it as official journal policy.
  • Return to the requesting skill for task logic, output format, and final QA.
