academic-writing skillA

academic-writing is agent-read markdown (skill) from khaledsaeed18/dotclaude: Write or revise thesis and paper prose section by section (abstract, introduction, related work, method, results, discussion, conclusion) with the conventions of computer-science writing: claim-first paragraphs, tense and voice by section, hedging matched to evidence, signposting, defined terms, and figures and tables that carry their own argument. Works from the student's outline and notes and never invents a result or a citation. Use when drafting a chapter, when a supervisor says a section is.

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

Academic prose has one job: let a sceptical reader check a claim. Every device below exists for that reader. Write for the examiner who will read chapter 4 at 11pm looking for a reason to ask a hard question at the defence.

## Before writing a section

1. Read the research question record and the outline for the chapter. If neither exists, ask for the section's purpose in one sentence; do not start from a blank page.
2. Read the notes or results the section must draw on (`research/notes/`, result tables, figures). Everything you state must be traceable to one of them or to the student.
3. Confirm the target: length, the department's style guide, the citation style, and whether the document is LaTeX or Word (this changes how you write cross-references and citations, never what you write).

## Section by section

**Abstract** (150 to 300 words, written last): context in one sentence; the problem or gap; what was done (method, scale); the main result with a number; what it means. No citations, no abbreviations undefined, no "this thesis is organised as follows".
