Drafts, revises, and audits scientific manuscripts or reports with explicit evidence provenance, reporting-guideline coverage, authorship accountability, confidentiality controls, and local consistency checks. Use for manuscript sections, references, declarations, tables, figures, or submission preparation when scientific accuracy and traceability matter.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Scientific Writing ## Purpose Produce clear scientific prose without inventing evidence or concealing uncertainty. Keep drafting, evidence verification, and submission approval as separate stages. The accountable human authors control scientific decisions and final approval. AI is not an author, and generated fluency is never evidence [SW-S01, SW-S03]. ## Non-negotiable safety rules ### Confidentiality Do not send unpublished manuscripts, peer-review or editorial material, sensitive or restricted data, PHI or other personal data, proprietary content, or source documents to an external service without: 1. explicit authorization from a person or body empowered to grant it; and 2. a documented review of journal, institutional, funder, consent, ethics, contractual, legal, and data-use policy. When authorization or policy is unclear, keep processing local and use only the minimum metadata needed. De-identification requires expert review; removing obvious names is not sufficient. See `references/authorship_ai_confidentiality.md`. ### No fabrication Never invent or complete: - citations, references, DOI, PMID, PMCID, ISBN, URLs, or quotations; …

How to install
mdr add k-dense-ai/scientific-agent-skills/scientific-writing@sha256:511a2096bebecd8cThe line at the top of this page pins the label v2.3, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
