sci-introduction skill

A Nature-style Introduction skill for diagnosing, planning, drafting, and rewriting SCI manuscript Introductions from manuscript-body evidence.

This skill is bilingual-aware. It accepts Chinese or English manuscript bodies, figure/result notes, existing Introductions, and author answers, then returns Chinese structural diagnosis and English replacement prose by default.

What It Does

  • diagnoses paragraph jobs, gap strength, contribution clarity, and overclaiming risk
  • requires manuscript body content or a detailed body-level outline before drafting
  • uses the video-guided three-question gate: importance, unresolved problem, present-study move
  • builds a one-line argument before writing prose
  • drafts or rewrites a 4-6 paragraph Nature-style Introduction
  • keeps manuscript details in the active conversation only, not in skill files

Source Hierarchy

  1. User-provided manuscript body, results, methods, discussion, figures, and limitations.
  2. User answers to the three video-guided questions.
  3. Generic Nature-style Introduction rules bundled with this skill.
  4. On-demand references in references/.

File Structure

The skill follows a router/static-dynamic split like the nature-* skills:

When To Use

  • writing a new Introduction after the manuscript body is clear
  • rewriting an existing Introduction against the body evidence
  • diagnosing whether background, gap, "Here we", and contribution logic work
  • converting Chinese result notes or author logic into English Introduction prose
  • compressing overlong setup into a Nature-style funnel

Do not use this skill to invent a paper from only a topic, title, or abstract.

Install

Place this folder under your Codex skills directory:

C:\Users\Administrator\.codex\skills\sci-introduction

Then invoke it with prompts such as:

Use $sci-introduction to diagnose and rewrite this Nature-style Introduction.

Design Intent

  • The Introduction is written late: after the body is clear and before the Abstract is finalized.
  • The video's three questions are treated as the pre-drafting logic gate.
  • Nature-style compression means short setup, strong gap, and evidence-bounded contribution.
  • The skill should ask for missing body evidence rather than fabricate content.
