About paper-writing-skill

paper-writing-skill PhD students know what they found. Turning that into a paper that gets accepted is where they stall. The problem isn't writing ability — it's operational friction. Structuring sections, maintaining cross-section coherence, compressing to page limits, matching voice conventions, synthesizing figures, responding to reviewers: students spend weeks on scaffolding that an experienced advisor could sketch in an afternoon. This skill offloads that scaffolding to the machine. It encodes 14 editorial principles, section-specific rhetorical move sequences, a five-stage writing pipeline, and a figure synthesis workflow for architectural and conceptual diagrams. All were extracted from forensic analysis of 6 papers, 8 submissions, 7,600+ Overleaf edits, 100+ tex file versions, and 5 peer review processes. These are the patterns that empirically distinguished accepted papers from rejected ones in the same research group. The student retains the hard parts: deciding what the paper claims, whether the evidence supports it, and how to position the work. The machine handles drafting mechanics, structural compliance, figure generation, and revision logistics.

How this security grade is produced

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, covering 11 red-flag categories including credential harvesting, data exfiltration, and curl | sh installers. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.

The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
