Based on SOC occupation classification
Multi-source literature search, citation verification, MeSH search strategy, citation file management (.nbib/.ris/.bib conversion), and reference management (BibTeX, related articles, ID conversion) via MCP tools (PubMed, CrossRef, arXiv, Scopus, ScienceDirect). Use when the user needs coordinated multi-step literature workflows beyond a single MCP call. Also trigger on general literature-search needs during academic writing even without the word "Nature", such as searching for papers/literature, doing a literature review, verifying a citation, converting citation files, and Chinese phrasings like 文献检索、查文献、找文献、 文献综述检索、查论文、引文核对、参考文献管理、文献去重.
Add strict Nature/CNS citations to manuscript text by splitting long passages into citable segments, searching only accepted flagship and subjournal titles from Nature Portfolio, the AAAS Science family, and Cell Press, filtering by publication time range, and exporting one reference-manager-ready output by default. Use this skill whenever the user asks to input text and automatically get references, add citations to a paragraph/manuscript, find Nature-series or CNS support for statements, create text-to-reference correspondence, "分段引用", "自动给出引用", "Nature系列引用", "CNS及子刊", "支撑文献", "补引用", "找引用", or export EndNote/RIS/ENW/Zotero RDF. Also trigger on general academic-writing citation needs even without the word "Nature", such as adding references while writing a paper, finding sources/literature for a claim, building a reference list, citation/referencing for academic writing, and Chinese phrasings like 学术写作引用、写论文加引用、写paper找文献、加参考文献、配文献、引用文献、文献支撑.
Polish, restructure, or translate academic prose into Nature-leaning English using writing-strategy principles, curated Nature/Nature Communications article patterns, and phrase-level support from Academic Phrasebank. Use whenever the user asks to polish a manuscript paragraph, abstract, introduction, results, discussion, conclusion, title, methods section, or Chinese academic draft for publication-quality English. Also covers LaTeX layout/typesetting (排版) fixes — loose or sparse pages, stranded section headings, figures that don't fill the page or split across pages, "Float too large", multi-panel figure arrangement, and Supplementary Information that looks empty — via references/latex-layout.md. Also trigger on general academic/scientific writing requests even without the word "Nature", including academic writing, scientific writing, SCI/paper writing, English manuscript polishing, language editing, proofreading, and Chinese phrasings such as 学术写作、科研写作、论文润色、写paper、SCI写作、英文论文润色、语言润色、润色、改写、学术英语、英文写作.
Multi-perspective academic paper review with dynamic reviewer personas. Simulates 5 independent reviewers (EIC + 3 peer reviewers + Devil's Advocate) with field-specific expertise. Supports full review, re-review (verification), quick assessment, methodology focus, Socratic guided, and calibration modes. Triggers on: review paper, peer review, manuscript review, referee report, review my paper, critique paper, simulate review, editorial review, calibrate reviewer, reviewer calibration, measure reviewer accuracy.
12-agent academic paper writing pipeline. 11 modes (full/plan/outline/revision/revision-coach/abstract/lit-review/format-convert/citation-check/disclosure/rebuttal-audit). 6 paper types, 5 citation formats, bilingual abstracts, LaTeX/DOCX-via-Pandoc/PDF output. Style Calibration + Writing Quality Check + Anti-Patterns with IRON RULE markers. Triggers: write paper, academic paper, guide my paper, parse reviews, audit my rebuttal, check my response draft, AI disclosure, 寫論文, 學術論文, 引導我寫論文, 審查意見, 評估回覆.
Orchestrator for the full academic research pipeline: research -> write -> integrity check -> review -> revise -> re-review -> re-revise -> final integrity check -> finalize. Coordinates deep-research, academic-paper, and academic-paper-reviewer into a seamless 10-stage workflow with mandatory integrity verification, two-stage peer review, and reproducible quality gates. Triggers on: academic pipeline, research to paper, full paper workflow, paper pipeline, end-to-end paper, research-to-publication, complete paper workflow.

| description | Launches the PaperSpine external terminal configuration UI for Claude Code. (internal /paperspine step) |
Use this branch whenever paper_spine_config.json is missing, incomplete, or
the user asks to configure PaperSpine interactively.
The supported interaction is a real terminal window launched by
the installed launch_paperspine_ui.ps1 (resolve its absolute path under
~/.claude/skills/...). Do not run input()-based Python inside a
hidden tool surface when the host cannot expose stdin.
In Claude Code, /paperspine must call this branch automatically when config is
missing. Launch the UI as the first action when config is missing; do not infer
config from materials instead.
# Pass the ABSOLUTE path to the installed launcher. Claude Code runs from the
# user's project folder, where `scripts/` does not exist, so a relative path is
# the most common reason the UI window never opens. Resolve the install dir:
$launcher = @(
"$env:USERPROFILE\.claude\skills\paper-spine-ui\scripts\launch_paperspine_ui.ps1",
"$env:USERPROFILE\.claude\skills\paper-spine-intake\scripts\launch_paperspine_ui.ps1"
) | Where-Object { Test-Path $_ } | Select-Object -First 1
powershell.exe -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File $launcher -OutputDir paper_rewriting_output
If no separate window appears (headless or sandboxed environments with no
interactive desktop), add -InPlace to run the wizard in the current
terminal instead; if stdin is still not interactive, fall back to numbered
menus or native questions. Never silently skip configuration.
The UI writes:
paper_rewriting_output/paper_spine_config.json
paper_rewriting_output/paper_spine_config.md
S to save, and Q to quit.Read references/interactive-intake.md for the question order and fallback
template.
