SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps researchers load an author-specific scientific writing style profile or do a light final-pass cleanup on a paragraph, so manuscript text reads more naturally without altering technical meaning.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Style profile loading: Reads the author-global profile and optional project override to support drafting with consistent scientific tone.
  • Light humanization: Removes common AI-isms such as overused phrasing, em dashes, rhetorical openings, and repetitive parallelism.
  • Safe manuscript editing: Preserves numbers, citations, chemical formulas, and claims while flagging cases that need escalation instead of risky rewriting.

Quick Start

Ask the skill to load the paper-style profile for the current project or lightly humanize a scientific paragraph.

FAQPage Schema
How do I remove AI phrasing from scientific manuscript drafts without changing technical meaning?

Scientific prose humanization removes overused AI phrasing, em dashes, and repetitive parallelism from manuscript paragraphs while preserving citations, numbers, and formulas. This light cleanup reads naturally without altering technical claims or risky rewriting.

What is a scientific writing style profile and when do I need one for manuscript drafting?

A scientific writing style profile defines an author-specific tone for consistent manuscript drafting and revision. You need it when writing literature reviews or research manuscripts to maintain a uniform voice across sections.

How do I apply an author-global style profile to a research manuscript?

To apply an author-global style profile, load the profile and optional project overrides into your drafting workflow. The profile guides prose tone across literature review, drafting, revision, and final polish stages of the manuscript.

Does manuscript editing preserve chemical formulas and citations during AI-ism cleanup?

Yes, manuscript editing preserves chemical formulas, citations, numbers, and technical claims during AI-ism cleanup. The process safely flags cases needing escalation instead of altering technical content through risky rewriting.

What are the limitations of using automated style profiles for research prose?

Limitations of automated style profiles include performing only light humanization on superficial artifacts. They avoid risky rewriting by flagging complex cases for escalation, meaning heavily flawed technical sentences still require manual revision.
