In a Claude Code session, enter these commands in order to add the repository as a plugin marketplace and then install the academic-research-skills plugin. These are agent-session commands, not terminal commands.
Use the deep-research skill in quick mode to give me a brief on [research topic]. Summarize the main evidence, important disagreements, and questions worth investigating next.
Use the academic-paper skill in outline mode to create a section-by-section outline for a paper on [topic]. Ask me for the paper type, discipline, citation format, and target length before drafting the outline.
Manuscript file path to replace [path-to-manuscript]
Check the repository for this skill’s setup.
Use the academic-paper-reviewer skill in quick-assessment mode to review the manuscript at [path-to-manuscript]. Identify its field and methodology, then give me the three most important issues to address first. Treat [path-to-manuscript] as a placeholder for the actual manuscript file path.
