Script Directory

Agent execution instructions:

  1. Determine this SKILL.md file's directory path as SKILL_DIR.
  2. Sub-skill path = ${SKILL_DIR}/<sub-skill>/SKILL.md.
  3. Shared reference path = ${SKILL_DIR}/references/<ref-name>.

Shared References

All drafting sub-skills inherit these:

  • references/apa_style_guide.md — numbers, statistics, notation, punctuation, formulas
  • references/table_formatting.md — APA 7th table structure and examples
  • references/appendix_template.md — shared appendix structure for methods and results

Sub-Skills

| Skill | Purpose | |-------|---------| | q-intro | Draft or refine introduction sections (phenomenon to theory to contribution) | | q-litreview | Draft standalone literature reviews (progressive argument to earned RQs) | | q-methods | Draft methods sections (data collection, analysis, validation procedures) | | q-results | Draft results sections (findings with APA tables and narrative flow) | | q-eda | Exploratory data analysis (measurement-appropriate statistics to CSV + summary) | | q-tf | Topic finetuning (raw topics to theory-driven classification) |

Core Writing Principles

All drafting sub-skills follow these standards:

  • Narrative prose; no bullet points, em-dashes, or standalone introductory paragraphs
  • Prefer 3-12 sentence paragraphs; merge pre-table intros into the post-table narrative
  • No unnecessary bold or italic emphasis in running text
  • Follow ../references/apa_style_guide.md for APA formatting, numbers, notation, and formulas
  • Use appendices for technical details; placeholders for pending information
  • Cross-section coordination: compress in the intro what the lit review elaborates; each section does distinct work
