SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It removes the guesswork and reviewer pain of writing a complete, COBIDAS-MEEG-compliant EEG methods paragraph by automatically assembling the required reporting details from the project’s analysis artifacts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • COBIDAS-MEEG checklist coverage: Produces a paste-ready paragraph (and optionally venue-tuned variants) that attempts to fill every required reporting item from the project logs and stage outputs.
  • Artifact-driven accuracy: Reads DATASET_BRIEF.md, ANALYSIS_PLAN.md, per-stage *_summary.json files, and BACKEND_RESOLUTION.md files to avoid missing software versions or parameter specifics.
  • Venue-aware formatting: Adapts output style for venues such as NeurIPS, JNeurosci, NeuroImage, FrontiersHumanNeuro, and others, and can emit Markdown and/or LaTeX.
  • BibTeX reference collection: Scans backend resolution files and declared tool usage to write report-stage/methods_references.bib with the citations needed for the paragraph.

Quick Start

Use the eeg-methods-text skill in your project directory after the pipeline has produced the preprocess, ICA, epoch, and stats stage outputs, so it can generate report-stage/methods.md and report-stage/methods.tex.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a COBIDAS-compliant EEG methods section for my paper submission?

To generate a COBIDAS-compliant EEG methods section, this skill reads your pipeline's stage summaries, analysis plans, and backend metadata to automatically assemble a paste-ready paragraph covering all required reporting items.

What input files are required to automate EEG methods text generation?

Automating EEG methods text generation requires DATASET_BRIEF.md, ANALYSIS_PLAN.md, per-stage summary JSONs, BACKEND_RESOLUTION.md, cluster permutation stats files, and ENVIRONMENT.json to accurately extract software versions and parameters.

Can I format my EEG methods paragraph as LaTeX and BibTeX for journal submission?

Yes, you can format your EEG methods paragraph as LaTeX and BibTeX. The skill outputs report-stage/methods.tex and methods_references.bib, adapting citation styles for venues like JNeurosci, NeuroImage, and NeurIPS.

Does EEG methods text generation work before preprocessing and statistics stages are complete?

EEG methods text generation does not work before pipeline completion. It requires existing acquisition, preprocessing, ICA, epoching, and cluster-permutation statistics artifacts to accurately report parameters and avoid missing software specifics.

How are EEG statistics reporting and cluster permutation results handled in the methods text?

EEG statistics reporting and cluster permutation results are handled by reading stats-stage cluster permutation JSON files. The skill integrates these artifacts to accurately document statistical parameters within the generated COBIDAS-MEEG methods paragraph.

What is the best way to ensure reproducibility when reporting EEG pipeline parameters?

The best way to ensure reproducibility when reporting EEG pipeline parameters is to extract them directly from analysis artifacts. This skill resolves placeholders using backend metadata and environment logs to prevent missing software versions.
