TL;DR

This collection provides structured support for biomedical researchers navigating the transition from draft to submission. It focuses on the technical and ethical precision required for peer review, offering tools to calibrate claim strength and ensure internal consistency across complex documents.

The skills streamline the final stages of academic writing, helping authors identify placeholder data, remove LLM artifacts, and verify references to reduce moderation risks during preprint uploads.

605 skill files

Compatible AgentsThe repository documents support for these agents. The skills may also work with other agents that can load SKILL.md files, but they may need some setup or small changes.

Use this skill collection

Follow the documented setup, then try a first task.

PaperSprint for OpenCode

Installs: paper-sprint-review skill directory · OpenCode

Before you start
  • OpenCode
  • A local paper-sprint-review skill directory

Run from: Parent directory containing paper-sprint-review

  1. In a terminal, copy the PaperSprint skill directory into the OpenCode skills folder.

    cp -r paper-sprint-review ~/.config/opencode/skills/
  2. Restart OpenCode after copying the skill directory.

Give it something to do.

Suggested first task

Scan recent biomedical preprint activity

Uses preprint-surveillance-finder

  • Biomedical or biological topic or keywords
  • Source preference: bioRxiv, medRxiv, arXiv, or all
  • Optional narrower sub-topic

Check the repository for this skill’s setup.

Use the preprint-surveillance-finder skill to scan <biomedical topic> over the last 14 days across <bioRxiv, medRxiv, arXiv, or all>. Give me a concise emerging-topic report with a few hot-topic clusters, quiet but notable areas, and manual search strings for verification. State whether you used live retrieval or knowledge-synthesis mode, and do not invent papers, authors, or identifiers.
Suggested first task

Run a basic PCA on tabular data

Uses pca-dimensionality-reduction

  • CSV, TXT, or TSV input file path
  • Output directory path
  • At least two numeric feature columns
  • Optional sample ID column
  • Optional group column

Check the repository for this skill’s setup.

Use the pca-dimensionality-reduction skill on <input_file> and write results to a new directory at <output_dir>. Use <numeric feature columns>, with <sample ID column> and <group column> if provided. Start with the default PCA settings, then briefly summarize explained variance, visible sample separation, and the strongest feature loadings.
Suggested first task

Create a structured bibliography from a small reading folder

Uses bibliography

  • Input directory containing Markdown, DOCX, or TXT literature files
  • New empty output directory
  • Desired bibliography CSV path within that output directory

Check the repository for this skill’s setup.

Use the bibliography skill to process the literature files in <input_directory> and save the two required outputs in a new empty directory at <output_directory>: a consolidated summary Markdown and <output_directory>/bibliography.csv. For this first pass, use a small folder of Markdown, DOCX, or TXT files. Organize each document by title, summary, keywords, experimental methods, key conclusion, and one-sentence commentary, following the supplied CSV template.
