# Smart Journal Monitor (RSS+AI)
Personalized research digest from top journals.
## When to Use
- Use this skill when the task needs Use smart journal monitor for evidence insight workflows that need structured execution, explicit assumptions, and clear output boundaries.
- Use this skill for evidence insight tasks that require explicit assumptions, bounded scope, and a reproducible output format.
- Use this skill when you need a documented fallback path for missing inputs, execution errors, or partial evidence.
## Key Features
- Scope-focused workflow aligned to: Use smart journal monitor for evidence insight workflows that need structured execution, explicit assumptions, and clear output boundaries.
- Packaged executable path(s): `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference material available in `references/` for task-specific guidance.
- Structured execution path designed to keep outputs consistent and reviewable.
## Dependencies
See `## Prerequisites` above for related details.
- `Python`: `3.10+`. Repository baseline for current packaged skills.
- `Third-party packages`: `not explicitly version-pinned in this skill package`. Add pinned versions if this skill needs stricter environment control.
## Example Usage
```bash
cd "20260318/scientific-skills/Evidence Insight/smart-journal-monitor"
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
Example run plan:
1. Confirm the user input, output path, and any required config values.
2. Edit the in-file `CONFIG` block or documented parameters if the script uses fixed settings.
3. Run `python scripts/main.py` with the validated inputs.
4. Review the generated output and return the final artifact with any assumptions called out.
## Implementation Details
See `## Workflow` above for related details.
- Execution model: validate the request, choose the packaged workflow, and produce a bounded deliverable.
- Input controls: confirm the source files, scope limits, output format, and acceptance criteria before running any script.
- Primary implementation surface: `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference guidance: `references/` contains supporting rules, prompts, or checklists.
- Parameters to clarify first: input path, output path, scope filters, thresholds, and any domain-specific constraints.
- Output discipline: keep results reproducible, identify assumptions explicitly, and avoid undocumented side effects.
## Quick Check
Use this command to verify that the packaged script entry point can be parsed before deeper execution.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
```
## Audit-Ready Commands
Use these concrete commands for validation. They are intentionally self-contained and avoid placeholder paths.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
## Workflow
1. Confirm the user objective, required inputs, and non-negotiable constraints before doing detailed work.
2. Validate that the request matches the documented scope and stop early if the task would require unsupported assumptions.
3. Use the packaged script path or the documented reasoning path with only the inputs that are actually available.
4. Return a structured result that separates assumptions, deliverables, risks, and unresolved items.
5. If execution fails or inputs are incomplete, switch to the fallback path and state exactly what blocked full completion.
## Use Cases
- Staying current with field developments
- Finding high-impact papers efficiently
- Competitive intelligence
## Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------|

| `alert_frequency` | str | No | "daily" | Digest frequency: "daily" or "weekly" |
## Returns
- Curated article list with impact scores
- One-sentence key takeaways
- Relevance ranking
## Example
Input: Keywords=["immunotherapy", "checkpoint inhibitor"], frequency=daily
Output: 3-5 most relevant breakthrough papers with summaries
## Risk Assessment
| Risk Indicator | Assessment | Level |
|----------------|------------|-------|
| Code Execution | Python/R scripts executed locally | Medium |
| Network Access | No external API calls | Low |
| File System Access | Read input files, write output files | Medium |
| Instruction Tampering | Standard prompt guidelines | Low |
| Data Exposure | Output files saved to workspace | Low |

- [ ] Dependencies audited
## Prerequisites
No additional Python packages required.
## Evaluation Criteria
### Success Metrics
- [ ] Successfully executes main functionality
- [ ] Output meets quality standards
- [ ] Handles edge cases gracefully
- [ ] Performance is acceptable
### Test Cases
1. **Basic Functionality**: Standard input → Expected output
2. **Edge Case**: Invalid input → Graceful error handling
3. **Performance**: Large dataset → Acceptable processing time
## Lifecycle Status
- **Current Stage**: Draft
- **Next Review Date**: 2026-03-06
- **Known Issues**: None
- **Planned Improvements**:
- Performance optimization
- Additional feature support
## Output Requirements
Every final response should make these items explicit when they are relevant:
- Objective or requested deliverable
- Inputs used and assumptions introduced
- Workflow or decision path
- Core result, recommendation, or artifact
- Constraints, risks, caveats, or validation needs
- Unresolved items and next-step checks
## Error Handling
- If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
- If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
- If `scripts/main.py` fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
- Do not fabricate files, citations, data, search results, or execution outcomes.
## Input Validation
This skill accepts requests that match the documented purpose of `smart-journal-monitor` and include enough context to complete the workflow safely.
Do not continue the workflow when the request is out of scope, missing a critical input, or would require unsupported assumptions. Instead respond:
> `smart-journal-monitor` only handles its documented workflow. Please provide the missing required inputs or switch to a more suitable skill.
## References
- [references/audit-reference.md](references/audit-reference.md) - Supported scope, audit commands, and fallback boundaries
## Response Template
Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:
1. Objective
2. Inputs Received
3. Assumptions
4. Workflow
5. Deliverable
6. Risks and Limits
7. Next Checks
If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.

# PPTX Posters
Generate PowerPoint presentations and academic posters from paper abstracts or content.
## Quick Check
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
## When to Use
- Use this skill when converting a paper abstract or PDF into a structured academic poster or slide deck.
- Use this skill when a specific design template (academic, minimal, colorful) or output format (poster, slides) is needed.
- Do not use this skill to write original research content, fabricate figures, or produce documents for submission as original work.
## Workflow
1. Confirm the input source (abstract text or paper PDF), output format, and template preference.
2. **PDF Validation:** If the input is a PDF, check whether it can be parsed. If the PDF is encrypted, image-only, or corrupt, emit a specific error: "The provided PDF cannot be parsed (possible causes: encrypted, image-only, or corrupt file). Please convert to text or provide the abstract directly."
3. Validate that the request is for presentation generation from existing content, not original research writing.
4. Extract and structure content into appropriate layout sections.
5. Generate the PowerPoint file with layout recommendations.
6. If inputs are incomplete, state which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
## Usage
```text
python scripts/main.py --abstract paper.txt --format poster --output poster.pptx
python scripts/main.py --paper paper.pdf --format slides --template academic
python scripts/main.py --abstract paper.txt --format slides --style minimal --output talk.pptx
```
## Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| `--abstract` | file/text | No | — | Abstract text or file path |
| `--paper` | file path | No | — | Full paper PDF |
| `--format` | string | Yes | — | Output format: `poster` or `slides` |
| `--template` | string | No | `academic` | Design template: `academic`, `minimal`, or `colorful` |
| `--output` | file path | No | stdout | Output `.pptx` file path |
## Output
- PowerPoint file (`.pptx`)
- Layout recommendations
- Design guidelines for manual refinement
## Scope Boundaries
- This skill generates layout and structure from provided content; it does not write original research.
- Figure placeholders are inserted; actual figures must be added manually.
- Citation formatting follows standard academic style but should be verified before submission.
## Stress-Case Rules
For complex multi-constraint requests, always include these explicit blocks:
1. Assumptions
2. Content Source Used
3. Layout Output
4. Design Notes
5. Risks and Manual Checks
## Error Handling
- If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
- If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
- If `scripts/main.py` fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
- Do not fabricate research content, figures, or citations.
## Input Validation
This skill accepts: a paper abstract or PDF as source content, with a target output format (poster or slides) and optional template preference.
If the request does not involve generating a presentation from existing paper content — for example, asking to write original research, create figures from data, or produce submission-ready manuscripts — do not proceed with the workflow. Instead respond:
> "pptx-posters is designed to generate PowerPoint presentations and academic posters from existing paper content. Your request appears to be outside this scope. For figure generation, use a data visualization tool with your actual data. For original research writing, use a manuscript drafting skill. Please provide an abstract or paper file, or use a more appropriate tool."
## Response Template
Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:
1. Objective
2. Inputs Received
3. Assumptions
4. Workflow
5. Deliverable
6. Risks and Limits
7. Next Checks
If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.

## Code Examples
### Seurat Quick Start
```r
# Load data
seurat_obj <- CreateSeuratObject(counts = raw_data, project = "Sample")
# QC
seurat_obj[["percent.mt"]] <- PercentageFeatureSet(seurat_obj, pattern = "^MT-")
seurat_obj <- subset(seurat_obj, subset = nFeature_RNA > 200 & percent.mt < 20)
# Normalize
seurat_obj <- NormalizeData(seurat_obj)
seurat_obj <- FindVariableFeatures(seurat_obj, selection.method = "vst", nfeatures = 2000)
# Scale and PCA
seurat_obj <- ScaleData(seurat_obj)
seurat_obj <- RunPCA(seurat_obj, features = VariableFeatures(object = seurat_obj))
# Cluster
seurat_obj <- FindNeighbors(seurat_obj, dims = 1:30)
seurat_obj <- FindClusters(seurat_obj, resolution = 1.0)
seurat_obj <- RunUMAP(seurat_obj, dims = 1:30)
# Visualize
DimPlot(seurat_obj, reduction = "umap", label = TRUE)
FeaturePlot(seurat_obj, features = c("CD3E", "CD14", "CD79A"))
```
### Scanpy Quick Start
```python
import scanpy as sc
# Load data
adata = sc.read_10x_mtx("filtered_gene_bc_matrices/")
# QC
sc.pp.filter_cells(adata, min_genes=200)
sc.pp.filter_genes(adata, min_cells=3)
adata.var['mt'] = adata.var_names.str.startswith('MT-')
sc.pp.calculate_qc_metrics(adata, qc_vars=['mt'], percent_top=None, inplace=True)
adata = adata[adata.obs.pct_counts_mt < 20, :]
# Normalize

# Batch Correction Methods Comparison
## Overview
Batch correction is essential when combining data from multiple experiments, donors, or sequencing runs. This guide compares available methods for single-cell RNA-seq data.
## Method Comparison
| Method | Best For | Seurat | Scanpy | Speed | Accuracy |
|--------|----------|--------|--------|-------|----------|
| **Harmony** | Small batches (<5), simple variation | ✅ | ✅ | Fast | High |
| **RPCA** | Large datasets, many batches | ✅ | ❌ | Medium | Very High |
| **CCA** | Complex variation, different tissues | ✅ | ❌ | Slow | Very High |
| **Scanorama** | Integration across platforms | ✅ | ✅ | Fast | High |
| **scVI** | Deep learning approach, large data | ✅ | ✅ | Slow | Very High |
| **BBKNN** | Graph-based, fast alternative | ✅ | ✅ | Very Fast | Medium |
| **ComBat** | Simple linear correction | ❌ | ✅ | Fast | Medium |
## Recommendations by Scenario
### Small Study (<5 batches)
```
Recommended: Harmony
Reason: Fast, accurate, preserves biological variation
```
### Large Study (>10 batches)
```
Recommended: RPCA (Seurat) or scVI (Scanpy)
Reason: Scalable, handles complex batch structures
```
### Cross-Platform Integration
```
Recommended: Scanorama or scVI
Reason: Designed for platform-specific technical effects
```
### Different Tissues/Conditions
```
Recommended: CCA or scVI
Reason: Preserves cell type differences while removing technical effects
```
### Quick Exploration
```
Recommended: BBKNN
Reason: Fastest method, good for initial analysis
```
## Quality Control After Integration
1. **Visual inspection**: Check UMAP by batch
2. **kBET**: Quantify batch mixing per cell type
3. **LISI**: Local Inverse Simpson's Index
4. **Silhouette score**: Cluster cohesion
5. **Marker preservation**: Check if known markers still identify cell types
## Code Examples
### Seurat - Harmony
```r
library(harmony)
seurat_obj <- RunHarmony(seurat_obj, group.by.vars = "batch")
seurat_obj <- RunUMAP(seurat_obj, reduction = "harmony", dims = 1:30)
```
### Seurat - RPCA
```r
seurat_list <- SplitObject(seurat_obj, split.by = "batch")
seurat_list <- lapply(seurat_list, NormalizeData)
seurat_list <- lapply(seurat_list, FindVariableFeatures)
features <- SelectIntegrationFeatures(seurat_list)
seurat_list <- lapply(seurat_list, ScaleData)
seurat_list <- lapply(seurat_list, RunPCA, features = features)
anchors <- FindIntegrationAnchors(seurat_list, reduction = "rpca")
seurat_integrated <- IntegrateData(anchorset = anchors)
```
### Scanpy - Harmony
```python
import scanpy.external as sce
sce.pp.harmony_integrate(adata, key='batch')
adata.obsm['X_pca'] = adata.obsm['X_pca_harmony']
```
### Scanpy - scVI
```python
import scvi
scvi.model.SCVI.setup_anndata(adata, batch_key='batch')
vae = scvi.model.SCVI(adata, n_layers=2, n_latent=30)
vae.train()
adata.obsm["X_scVI"] = vae.get_latent_representation()
sc.pp.neighbors(adata, use_rep="X_scVI")
```
## Common Pitfalls
1. **Over-correction**: Removes biological signal along with batch effects
- Solution: Compare before/after correction marker expression
2. **Under-correction**: Batches remain separated
- Solution: Try stronger methods (scVI, CCA)
3. **Confounding**: Batch and condition are correlated
- Solution: Use methods that model condition (scVI)
4. **Cell type imbalance**: Different proportions across batches
- Solution: Subsample abundant cell types before integration

## Quick Start
### Seurat (R)
```bash
Rscript seurat_analysis.R
```
### Scanpy (Python)
```bash
python scanpy_analysis.py
```
## Prerequisites
### R (Seurat)
```r
install.packages(c("Seurat", "dplyr", "ggplot2", "patchwork"))
```
### Python (Scanpy)
```bash
pip install scanpy leidenalg python-igraph
```
## Data Input
Update the data path in the scripts:
- **Seurat**: Modify `data_dir <- "path/to/filtered_gene_bc_matrices"`
- **Scanpy**: Modify `sc.read_10x_mtx("path/to/filtered_gene_bc_matrices/")`
## Expected Output
- Processed Seurat/Scanpy objects
- UMAP visualizations with clusters
- Marker gene plots
- Cell type annotations
- Quality control plots
## Notes
1. Adjust QC thresholds based on your data quality
2. Modify marker genes for your specific tissue/cell types
3. Clustering resolution can be tuned (0.4-1.2 typical range)
4. For large datasets, consider downsampling for initial exploration
## Troubleshooting
- **Memory issues**: Increase `min.cells` and `min.features` filters
- **Poor clustering**: Adjust PCA dimensions (try 20-50) or resolution
- **Batch effects**: Use batch correction methods provided
- **Cell type annotation**: Update marker genes based on your tissue

# Shift Handover Summarizer
Generate structured shift handover summaries from EHR updates, highlighting critical events that occurred during the shift.
> **Clinical Disclaimer:** This tool generates summaries for handover support only. All clinical decisions must be verified by qualified medical staff. Patient data must comply with applicable data protection regulations (e.g., HIPAA).
## Quick Check
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
## When to Use
- Use this skill when generating a structured handover summary from EHR records at the end of a clinical shift.
- Use this skill when prioritizing patients by event severity for incoming staff.
- Do not use this skill as a substitute for direct clinical handover, real-time patient assessment, or emergency triage.
## Workflow
1. Confirm the patient records file, shift start/end times, and optional department filter.
2. Validate that the input records are within the declared shift time range.
3. **Timezone validation:** If `--shift-start` or `--shift-end` lacks a timezone offset (e.g., `2026-02-06T00:00:00` without `Z` or `+HH:MM`), emit a warning: "Shift times appear to lack a timezone offset. Assuming UTC. Specify timezone explicitly (e.g., `2026-02-06T00:00:00+08:00`) to avoid incorrect event filtering."
4. Run the summarizer script or apply the manual extraction path.
5. Return a structured summary with patients ranked by priority, key events, and pending tasks.
6. If inputs are incomplete, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
## Usage
```text
python scripts/main.py \
--records data/shift_records.json \
--shift-start "2026-02-06T00:00:00Z" \
--shift-end "2026-02-06T08:00:00Z" \
--department "Cardiology" \
--output summary.json
```
## Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `--records` | file path | Yes | JSON file of EHR records for the shift |
| `--shift-start` | ISO 8601 | Yes | Shift start time |
| `--shift-end` | ISO 8601 | Yes | Shift end time |
| `--department` | string | No | Department filter |
| `--output` | file path | No | Output file path (default: stdout) |
| `--no-vitals` | flag | No | Exclude vital signs summary |
## Event Priority Levels
| Priority | Event Type |
|----------|-----------|
| High | Resuscitation, deterioration, serious complications, abnormal vitals |
| Medium | New symptoms, abnormal findings, medication adjustments, special procedures |
| Low | Routine treatment, condition improvement, daily care |
## Output
- Shift summary with total patients and critical patient count
- Per-patient priority ranking, key events, vitals summary, medication summary, and pending tasks
- Plain-text handover narrative
## Scope Boundaries
- This skill processes structured EHR records; it does not access live hospital systems.
- Event classification is based on preset thresholds and keywords; adjust thresholds for department-specific needs.
- This skill does not replace direct verbal handover or physician sign-off.
## Stress-Case Rules
For complex multi-constraint requests, always include these explicit blocks:
1. Assumptions
2. Shift Period and Inputs Used
3. Summary Output
4. Critical Flags
5. Risks and Manual Checks
## Error Handling
- If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
- If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
- If `scripts/main.py` fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
- Do not fabricate patient data, clinical events, or execution outcomes.
## Input Validation
This skill accepts: a structured EHR records file with shift start and end times for handover summary generation.
If the request does not involve shift handover summary generation from EHR records — for example, asking for real-time patient monitoring, clinical diagnosis, or direct treatment recommendations — do not proceed with the workflow. Instead respond:
> "shift-handover-summarizer is designed to generate structured handover summaries from EHR records. Your request appears to be outside this scope. Please provide a records file and shift times, or use a more appropriate clinical tool."
## Response Template
Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:
1. Objective
2. Inputs Received
3. Assumptions
4. Workflow
5. Deliverable
6. Risks and Limits
7. Next Checks
If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.
FILE:POLISH_CHANGELOG.md
# POLISH_CHANGELOG — shift-handover-summarizer
**Original Score:** 83
**Polish Date:** 2026-03-19
## Issues Addressed
### P0 / Veto Fixes
- None (no veto failures)
### P1 Fixes
- **Timezone handling undocumented:** Added step 3 to workflow with an explicit timezone validation warning. If shift times lack a timezone offset, the skill now emits a warning and states it will assume UTC, with guidance to specify timezone explicitly.
### P2 Fixes
- None beyond P1 fixes.
### QS-1 (Input Validation)
- Already present and well-formed.
### QS-2 (Progressive Disclosure)
- File is 115 lines — within 300-line limit. No content moved to references/.
### QS-3 (Canonical YAML Frontmatter)
- Already present with all four required fields.

# Sequence Alignment
A skill for performing sequence alignment using NCBI BLAST API. Supports nucleotide and protein sequence comparison against major biological databases.
## When to Use
- Use this skill when the task needs performing sequence alignment using NCBI BLAST API. Supports nucleotide and protein sequence comparison against major biological databases.
- Use this skill for data analysis tasks that require explicit assumptions, bounded scope, and a reproducible output format.
- Use this skill when the response must stay inside the documented task boundary instead of expanding into adjacent work.
## Key Features
See `## Features` above for related details.
- Scope-focused workflow aligned to: A skill for performing sequence alignment using NCBI BLAST API. Supports nucleotide and protein sequence comparison against major biological databases.
- Packaged executable path(s): `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference material available in `references/` for task-specific guidance.
- Structured execution path designed to keep outputs consistent and reviewable.
## Dependencies
See `## Prerequisites` above for related details.
- `Python`: `3.10+`. Repository baseline for current packaged skills.
- `Third-party packages`: `not explicitly version-pinned in this skill package`. Add pinned versions if this skill needs stricter environment control.
## Example Usage
See `## Usage` above for related details.
```bash
cd "20260318/scientific-skills/Data Analytics/sequence-alignment"
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
Example run plan:
1. Confirm the user input, output path, and any required config values.
2. Edit the in-file `CONFIG` block or documented parameters if the script uses fixed settings.
3. Run `python scripts/main.py` with the validated inputs.
4. Review the generated output and return the final artifact with any assumptions called out.
## Implementation Details
See `## Workflow` above for related details.
- Execution model: validate the request, choose the packaged workflow, and produce a bounded deliverable.
- Input controls: confirm the source files, scope limits, output format, and acceptance criteria before running any script.
- Primary implementation surface: `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference guidance: `references/` contains supporting rules, prompts, or checklists.
- Parameters to clarify first: input path, output path, scope filters, thresholds, and any domain-specific constraints.
- Output discipline: keep results reproducible, identify assumptions explicitly, and avoid undocumented side effects.
## Quick Check
Use this command to verify that the packaged script entry point can be parsed before deeper execution.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
```
## Audit-Ready Commands
Use these concrete commands for validation. They are intentionally self-contained and avoid placeholder paths.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
## Workflow
1. Confirm the user objective, required inputs, and non-negotiable constraints before doing detailed work.
2. Validate that the request matches the documented scope and stop early if the task would require unsupported assumptions.
3. Use the packaged script path or the documented reasoning path with only the inputs that are actually available.
4. Return a structured result that separates assumptions, deliverables, risks, and unresolved items.
5. If execution fails or inputs are incomplete, switch to the fallback path and state exactly what blocked full completion.
## Features
- **BLAST API Integration**: Query NCBI BLAST service for sequence similarity search
- **Multiple BLAST Programs**: blastn, blastp, blastx, tblastn, tblastx
- **Alignment Visualization**: Display results in human-readable format
- **Database Support**: nr, nt, swissprot, refseq, pdb, and more

## Prerequisites
No additional Python packages required.
## Evaluation Criteria
### Success Metrics
- [ ] Successfully executes main functionality
- [ ] Output meets quality standards
- [ ] Handles edge cases gracefully
- [ ] Performance is acceptable
### Test Cases
1. **Basic Functionality**: Standard input → Expected output
2. **Edge Case**: Invalid input → Graceful error handling
3. **Performance**: Large dataset → Acceptable processing time
## Lifecycle Status
- **Current Stage**: Draft
- **Next Review Date**: 2026-03-06
- **Known Issues**: None
- **Planned Improvements**:
- Performance optimization
- Additional feature support
## Output Requirements
Every final response should make these items explicit when they are relevant:
- Objective or requested deliverable
- Inputs used and assumptions introduced
- Workflow or decision path
- Core result, recommendation, or artifact
- Constraints, risks, caveats, or validation needs
- Unresolved items and next-step checks
## Error Handling
- If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
- If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
- If `scripts/main.py` fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
- Do not fabricate files, citations, data, search results, or execution outcomes.
## Input Validation
This skill accepts requests that match the documented purpose of `sequence-alignment` and include enough context to complete the workflow safely.
Do not continue the workflow when the request is out of scope, missing a critical input, or would require unsupported assumptions. Instead respond:
> `sequence-alignment` only handles its documented workflow. Please provide the missing required inputs or switch to a more suitable skill.
## Response Template
Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:
1. Objective
2. Inputs Received
3. Assumptions
4. Workflow
5. Deliverable
6. Risks and Limits
7. Next Checks
If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.

# BLAST Documentation
## Overview
BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool) is an algorithm for comparing primary biological sequence information, such as the amino-acid sequences of proteins or the nucleotides of DNA sequences.
## BLAST Programs
### blastn
- **Query**: Nucleotide
- **Database**: Nucleotide
- **Use Case**: Search nucleotide databases using a nucleotide query
### blastp
- **Query**: Protein
- **Database**: Protein
- **Use Case**: Search protein databases using a protein query
### blastx
- **Query**: Nucleotide (translated)
- **Database**: Protein
- **Use Case**: Search protein databases using a translated nucleotide query
### tblastn
- **Query**: Protein
- **Database**: Nucleotide (translated)
- **Use Case**: Search translated nucleotide databases using a protein query
### tblastx
- **Query**: Nucleotide (translated)
- **Database**: Nucleotide (translated)
- **Use Case**: Search translated nucleotide databases using a translated nucleotide query
## Key Metrics
### E-value (Expect Value)
- Statistical significance threshold
- Lower is better
- E-value < 0.01 typically considered significant
- Default: 10
### Bit Score
- Normalized score for comparison across searches
- Higher is better
- Derived from raw alignment score
### Identity
- Percentage of identical matches in alignment
- Calculated as: (identical positions / alignment length) × 100
### Positives
- For protein alignments, similar amino acids (conservative substitutions)
- Includes identical + similar residues
## Common Databases
| Database | Type | Description |
|----------|------|-------------|
| nr | Protein | Non-redundant protein sequences |
| nt | Nucleotide | Nucleotide collection |
| swissprot | Protein | Swiss-Prot protein sequences |
| pdb | Protein | Protein Data Bank sequences |
| refseq_protein | Protein | NCBI Reference Sequence proteins |
| refseq_rna | Nucleotide | NCBI Reference Sequence RNAs |
| est | Nucleotide | Expressed Sequence Tags |
| gss | Nucleotide | Genome Survey Sequences |
## Best Practices
1. **Choose appropriate program**: Match query and database types correctly
2. **Set E-value threshold**: Start with 0.001 for high-confidence hits
3. **Filter low-complexity regions**: Use appropriate filters to avoid spurious hits
4. **Check alignment length**: Short alignments may be less reliable
5. **Verify identity percentage**: Higher identity indicates closer evolutionary relationship

## Request Commands
### Put Command (Submit Search)
Submit a new BLAST search request.
**Parameters:**
- `CMD=Put` - Required
- `PROGRAM` - BLAST program (blastn, blastp, blastx, tblastn, tblastx)
- `DATABASE` - Target database name
- `QUERY` - Query sequence
- `EXPECT` - E-value threshold (default: 10)

```
### Delete Command (Cancel Search)
Cancel a running search.
**Parameters:**
- `CMD=Delete` - Required
- `RID` - Request ID to cancel
## Response Status
When checking search status, look for these indicators in the response:
- `Status=WAITING` - Search is in progress
- `Status=READY` - Search completed successfully
- `Status=FAILED` - Search failed
- `Status=UNKNOWN` - Invalid RID
## Rate Limiting
NCBI recommends:
- Maximum 1 request every 3 seconds
- Do not poll more frequently than every 10 seconds
- Use appropriate delays based on RTOE (Request Time of Execution)
## Error Handling
Common HTTP errors:
- `429 Too Many Requests` - Rate limit exceeded, wait before retry
- `500 Internal Server Error` - Server error, retry with backoff

# Skill: Semantic Consistency Auditor
**ID:** 212
**Name:** semantic-consistency-auditor
**Description:** Introduces BERTScore and COMET algorithms to evaluate the semantic consistency between AI-generated clinical notes and expert gold standards from the "semantic entailment" level.
## When to Use
- Use this skill when the task needs Use semantic consistency auditor for academic writing workflows that need structured execution, explicit assumptions, and clear output boundaries.
- Use this skill for academic writing tasks that require explicit assumptions, bounded scope, and a reproducible output format.
- Use this skill when you need a documented fallback path for missing inputs, execution errors, or partial evidence.
## Key Features
- Scope-focused workflow aligned to: Use semantic consistency auditor for academic writing workflows that need structured execution, explicit assumptions, and clear output boundaries.
- Packaged executable path(s): `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference material available in `references/` for task-specific guidance.
- Structured execution path designed to keep outputs consistent and reviewable.
## Dependencies
See `## Prerequisites` above for related details.
- `Python`: `3.10+`. Repository baseline for current packaged skills.
- `bert_score`: `unspecified`. Declared in `requirements.txt`.
- `comet`: `unspecified`. Declared in `requirements.txt`.
- `dataclasses`: `unspecified`. Declared in `requirements.txt`.
- `numpy`: `unspecified`. Declared in `requirements.txt`.
- `torch`: `unspecified`. Declared in `requirements.txt`.
- `yaml`: `unspecified`. Declared in `requirements.txt`.
## Example Usage
See `## Usage` above for related details.
```bash
cd "20260318/scientific-skills/Academic Writing/semantic-consistency-auditor"
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
Example run plan:
1. Confirm the user input, output path, and any required config values.
2. Edit the in-file `CONFIG` block or documented parameters if the script uses fixed settings.
3. Run `python scripts/main.py` with the validated inputs.
4. Review the generated output and return the final artifact with any assumptions called out.
## Implementation Details
See `## Workflow` above for related details.
- Execution model: validate the request, choose the packaged workflow, and produce a bounded deliverable.
- Input controls: confirm the source files, scope limits, output format, and acceptance criteria before running any script.
- Primary implementation surface: `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference guidance: `references/` contains supporting rules, prompts, or checklists.
- Parameters to clarify first: input path, output path, scope filters, thresholds, and any domain-specific constraints.
- Output discipline: keep results reproducible, identify assumptions explicitly, and avoid undocumented side effects.
## Quick Check
Use this command to verify that the packaged script entry point can be parsed before deeper execution.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
```
## Audit-Ready Commands
Use these concrete commands for validation. They are intentionally self-contained and avoid placeholder paths.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
## Workflow
1. Confirm the user objective, required inputs, and non-negotiable constraints before doing detailed work.
2. Validate that the request matches the documented scope and stop early if the task would require unsupported assumptions.
3. Use the packaged script path or the documented reasoning path with only the inputs that are actually available.
4. Return a structured result that separates assumptions, deliverables, risks, and unresolved items.
5. If execution fails or inputs are incomplete, switch to the fallback path and state exactly what blocked full completion.
## Overview
Semantic Consistency Auditor is a medical AI evaluation tool used to assess the semantic consistency between AI-generated clinical notes and expert-written gold standards from a semantic level. This tool is not limited to traditional string matching or bag-of-words models, but uses deep learning models to understand semantic entailment relationships, capable of identifying expressions with different wording but similar meaning.
## Algorithms
### 1. BERTScore
BERTScore uses pre-trained BERT model contextual embeddings to calculate similarity between candidate text and reference text:
- **Precision**: How much semantics in the candidate text is covered by the reference text
- **Recall**: How much semantics in the reference text is covered by the candidate text
- **F1 Score**: Harmonic mean of Precision and Recall
### 2. COMET (Cross-lingual Optimized Metric for Evaluation of Translation)
COMET is a neural network-based evaluation metric originally used for machine translation evaluation, applicable to semantic entailment tasks:
- Uses XLM-RoBERTa encoder to capture deep semantics
- Outputs semantic consistency scores between 0-1
- Gives high scores to semantically equivalent but differently expressed text

## Error Handling
- If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
- If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
- If `scripts/main.py` fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
- Do not fabricate files, citations, data, search results, or execution outcomes.
## Performance Notes
- **BERTScore**: First run will download model (approximately 400MB-1GB)
- **COMET**: First run will download model (approximately 500MB-1.5GB)
- **GPU Acceleration**: Significantly improves evaluation speed in CUDA environment
- **Batch Processing**: Recommended for batch evaluation to fully utilize GPU parallel capability

## Evaluation Criteria
### Success Metrics
- [ ] Successfully executes main functionality
- [ ] Output meets quality standards
- [ ] Handles edge cases gracefully
- [ ] Performance is acceptable
### Test Cases
1. **Basic Functionality**: Standard input → Expected output
2. **Edge Case**: Invalid input → Graceful error handling
3. **Performance**: Large dataset → Acceptable processing time
## Output Requirements
Every final response should make these items explicit when they are relevant:
- Objective or requested deliverable
- Inputs used and assumptions introduced
- Workflow or decision path
- Core result, recommendation, or artifact
- Constraints, risks, caveats, or validation needs
- Unresolved items and next-step checks
## Input Validation
This skill accepts requests that match the documented purpose of `semantic-consistency-auditor` and include enough context to complete the workflow safely.
Do not continue the workflow when the request is out of scope, missing a critical input, or would require unsupported assumptions. Instead respond:
> `semantic-consistency-auditor` only handles its documented workflow. Please provide the missing required inputs or switch to a more suitable skill.
## References
- [references/audit-reference.md](references/audit-reference.md) - Supported scope, audit commands, and fallback boundaries
## Response Template
Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:

# Audit Reference
## Scope
- Skill: `semantic-consistency-auditor`
- Core purpose: Use semantic consistency auditor for academic writing workflows that need structured execution, explicit assumptions, and clear output boundaries.
- Use only within the documented workflow and category boundary defined in `SKILL.md`
## Supported Audit Paths
- `python -m py_compile scripts/main.py`
- `python scripts/main.py --help`
## Fallback Boundary
If required inputs are incomplete, the skill should still return:
- the missing required inputs
- the steps that can still be completed safely
- assumptions that need confirmation before execution
- the next checks before accepting the final deliverable

# Scientific Podcast Summary
**ID:** 189
**Version:** 1.0.0
**Description:** Automatically summarizes core content from Huberman Lab or Nature Podcast, generating text briefings.
---
## When to Use
- Use this skill when the task needs Automatically summarize scientific podcasts like Huberman Lab and Nature.
- Use this skill for evidence insight tasks that require explicit assumptions, bounded scope, and a reproducible output format.
- Use this skill when you need a documented fallback path for missing inputs, execution errors, or partial evidence.
## Key Features
- Scope-focused workflow aligned to: Automatically summarize scientific podcasts like Huberman Lab and Nature.
- Packaged executable path(s): `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference material available in `references/` for task-specific guidance.
- Structured execution path designed to keep outputs consistent and reviewable.
## Dependencies
- Python 3.8+
- requests
- beautifulsoup4
- openai (or compatible API)
## Example Usage
See `## Usage` above for related details.
```bash
cd "20260318/scientific-skills/Evidence Insight/scientific-podcast-summary"
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
Example run plan:
1. Confirm the user input, output path, and any required config values.
2. Edit the in-file `CONFIG` block or documented parameters if the script uses fixed settings.
3. Run `python scripts/main.py` with the validated inputs.
4. Review the generated output and return the final artifact with any assumptions called out.
## Implementation Details
See `## Workflow` above for related details.
- Execution model: validate the request, choose the packaged workflow, and produce a bounded deliverable.
- Input controls: confirm the source files, scope limits, output format, and acceptance criteria before running any script.
- Primary implementation surface: `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference guidance: `references/` contains supporting rules, prompts, or checklists.
- Parameters to clarify first: input path, output path, scope filters, thresholds, and any domain-specific constraints.
- Output discipline: keep results reproducible, identify assumptions explicitly, and avoid undocumented side effects.
## Quick Check
Use this command to verify that the packaged script entry point can be parsed before deeper execution.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
```
## Audit-Ready Commands
Use these concrete commands for validation. They are intentionally self-contained and avoid placeholder paths.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
## Workflow
1. Confirm the user objective, required inputs, and non-negotiable constraints before doing detailed work.
2. Validate that the request matches the documented scope and stop early if the task would require unsupported assumptions.
3. Use the packaged script path or the documented reasoning path with only the inputs that are actually available.
4. Return a structured result that separates assumptions, deliverables, risks, and unresolved items.
5. If execution fails or inputs are incomplete, switch to the fallback path and state exactly what blocked full completion.

## Risk Assessment
| Risk Indicator | Assessment | Level |
|----------------|------------|-------|
| Code Execution | Python scripts with tools | High |
| Network Access | External API calls | High |
| File System Access | Read/write data | Medium |
| Instruction Tampering | Standard prompt guidelines | Low |
| Data Exposure | Data handled securely | Medium |
## Security Checklist
- [ ] No hardcoded credentials or API keys
- [ ] No unauthorized file system access (../)
- [ ] Output does not expose sensitive information
- [ ] Prompt injection protections in place
- [ ] API requests use HTTPS only
- [ ] Input validated against allowed patterns
- [ ] API timeout and retry mechanisms implemented
- [ ] Output directory restricted to workspace
- [ ] Script execution in sandboxed environment
- [ ] Error messages sanitized (no internal paths exposed)
- [ ] Dependencies audited
- [ ] No exposure of internal service architecture
## Prerequisites
```text
# Python dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
## Evaluation Criteria
### Success Metrics
- [ ] Successfully executes main functionality
- [ ] Output meets quality standards
- [ ] Handles edge cases gracefully
- [ ] Performance is acceptable
### Test Cases
1. **Basic Functionality**: Standard input → Expected output
2. **Edge Case**: Invalid input → Graceful error handling
3. **Performance**: Large dataset → Acceptable processing time
## Lifecycle Status
- **Current Stage**: Draft
- **Next Review Date**: 2026-03-06
- **Known Issues**: None
- **Planned Improvements**:
- Performance optimization
- Additional feature support
## Output Requirements
Every final response should make these items explicit when they are relevant:

- Inputs used and assumptions introduced
- Workflow or decision path
- Core result, recommendation, or artifact
- Constraints, risks, caveats, or validation needs
- Unresolved items and next-step checks
## Error Handling
- If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
- If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
- If `scripts/main.py` fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
- Do not fabricate files, citations, data, search results, or execution outcomes.
## Input Validation
This skill accepts requests that match the documented purpose of `scientific-podcast-summary` and include enough context to complete the workflow safely.
Do not continue the workflow when the request is out of scope, missing a critical input, or would require unsupported assumptions. Instead respond:
> `scientific-podcast-summary` only handles its documented workflow. Please provide the missing required inputs or switch to a more suitable skill.
## References
- [references/audit-reference.md](references/audit-reference.md) - Supported scope, audit commands, and fallback boundaries
## Response Template
Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:
1. Objective
2. Inputs Received
3. Assumptions
4. Workflow
5. Deliverable
6. Risks and Limits
7. Next Checks
If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.

# Audit Reference
## Scope
- Skill: `scientific-podcast-summary`
- Core purpose: Automatically summarize scientific podcasts like Huberman Lab and Nature.
- Use only within the documented workflow and category boundary defined in `SKILL.md`
## Supported Audit Paths
- `python -m py_compile scripts/main.py`
- `python scripts/main.py --help`
## Fallback Boundary
If required inputs are incomplete, the skill should still return:
- the missing required inputs
- the steps that can still be completed safely
- assumptions that need confirmation before execution
- the next checks before accepting the final deliverable

# ScRNA Cell Type Annotator
Single-cell cluster identification.
## When to Use
- Use this skill when the task needs Auto-annotate cell clusters from single-cell RNA data using marker genes.
- Use this skill for data analysis tasks that require explicit assumptions, bounded scope, and a reproducible output format.
- Use this skill when you need a documented fallback path for missing inputs, execution errors, or partial evidence.
## Key Features
- Scope-focused workflow aligned to: Auto-annotate cell clusters from single-cell RNA data using marker genes.
- Packaged executable path(s): `scripts/main.py`.
- Structured execution path designed to keep outputs consistent and reviewable.
## Dependencies
See `## Prerequisites` above for related details.
- `Python`: `3.10+`. Repository baseline for current packaged skills.
- `pandas`: `unspecified`. Declared in `requirements.txt`.
## Example Usage
```bash
cd "20260318/scientific-skills/Data Analytics/scrna-cell-type-annotator"
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
Example run plan:
1. Confirm the user input, output path, and any required config values.
2. Edit the in-file `CONFIG` block or documented parameters if the script uses fixed settings.
3. Run `python scripts/main.py` with the validated inputs.
4. Review the generated output and return the final artifact with any assumptions called out.
## Implementation Details
See `## Workflow` above for related details.
- Execution model: validate the request, choose the packaged workflow, and produce a bounded deliverable.
- Input controls: confirm the source files, scope limits, output format, and acceptance criteria before running any script.
- Primary implementation surface: `scripts/main.py`.
- Parameters to clarify first: input path, output path, scope filters, thresholds, and any domain-specific constraints.
- Output discipline: keep results reproducible, identify assumptions explicitly, and avoid undocumented side effects.
## Quick Check
Use this command to verify that the packaged script entry point can be parsed before deeper execution.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
```
## Audit-Ready Commands
Use these concrete commands for validation. They are intentionally self-contained and avoid placeholder paths.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
## Workflow
1. Confirm the user objective, required inputs, and non-negotiable constraints before doing detailed work.
2. Validate that the request matches the documented scope and stop early if the task would require unsupported assumptions.
3. Use the packaged script path or the documented reasoning path with only the inputs that are actually available.
4. Return a structured result that separates assumptions, deliverables, risks, and unresolved items.
5. If execution fails or inputs are incomplete, switch to the fallback path and state exactly what blocked full completion.
## Use Cases
- Post-clustering annotation
- Novel cell type discovery
- Cross-study comparison
- Atlas construction
## Parameters
- `cluster_markers`: DEG per cluster
- `tissue_type`: Organ context
- `species`: Human/mouse
## Returns
- Cell type predictions
- Marker gene support
- Confidence levels
- Alternative suggestions
## Example
Cluster 1: IL2RA, CD3D → CD4 T cells
## Risk Assessment
| Risk Indicator | Assessment | Level |
|----------------|------------|-------|
| Code Execution | Python/R scripts executed locally | Medium |
| Network Access | No external API calls | Low |
| File System Access | Read input files, write output files | Medium |
| Instruction Tampering | Standard prompt guidelines | Low |
| Data Exposure | Output files saved to workspace | Low |
## Security Checklist
- [ ] No hardcoded credentials or API keys
- [ ] No unauthorized file system access (../)
- [ ] Output does not expose sensitive information
- [ ] Prompt injection protections in place
- [ ] Input file paths validated (no ../ traversal)
- [ ] Output directory restricted to workspace
- [ ] Script execution in sandboxed environment
- [ ] Error messages sanitized (no stack traces exposed)
- [ ] Dependencies audited
## Prerequisites
```text
# Python dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
## Evaluation Criteria
### Success Metrics
- [ ] Successfully executes main functionality
- [ ] Output meets quality standards
- [ ] Handles edge cases gracefully
- [ ] Performance is acceptable
### Test Cases
1. **Basic Functionality**: Standard input → Expected output
2. **Edge Case**: Invalid input → Graceful error handling
3. **Performance**: Large dataset → Acceptable processing time
## Lifecycle Status
- **Current Stage**: Draft
- **Next Review Date**: 2026-03-06
- **Known Issues**: None
- **Planned Improvements**:
- Performance optimization
- Additional feature support
## Output Requirements
Every final response should make these items explicit when they are relevant:
- Objective or requested deliverable
- Inputs used and assumptions introduced
- Workflow or decision path
- Core result, recommendation, or artifact
- Constraints, risks, caveats, or validation needs
- Unresolved items and next-step checks
## Error Handling
- If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
- If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
- If `scripts/main.py` fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
- Do not fabricate files, citations, data, search results, or execution outcomes.
## Input Validation
This skill accepts requests that match the documented purpose of `scrna-cell-type-annotator` and include enough context to complete the workflow safely.
Do not continue the workflow when the request is out of scope, missing a critical input, or would require unsupported assumptions. Instead respond:
> `scrna-cell-type-annotator` only handles its documented workflow. Please provide the missing required inputs or switch to a more suitable skill.
## Response Template
Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:
1. Objective
2. Inputs Received
3. Assumptions
4. Workflow
5. Deliverable
6. Risks and Limits
7. Next Checks
If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.

1. **Basic Functionality**: Standard input → Expected output
2. **Edge Case**: Invalid input → Graceful error handling
3. **Performance**: Large dataset → Acceptable processing time
## Lifecycle Status
- **Current Stage**: Draft
- **Next Review Date**: 2026-03-06
- **Known Issues**: None
- **Planned Improvements**:
- Performance optimization
- Additional feature support
## Output Requirements
Every final response should make these items explicit when they are relevant:
- Objective or requested deliverable
- Inputs used and assumptions introduced
- Workflow or decision path
- Core result, recommendation, or artifact
- Constraints, risks, caveats, or validation needs
- Unresolved items and next-step checks
## Error Handling
- If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
- If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
- If `scripts/main.py` fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
- Do not fabricate files, citations, data, search results, or execution outcomes.
## Input Validation
This skill accepts requests that match the documented purpose of `sanger-chromatogram-qa` and include enough context to complete the workflow safely.
Do not continue the workflow when the request is out of scope, missing a critical input, or would require unsupported assumptions. Instead respond:
> `sanger-chromatogram-qa` only handles its documented workflow. Please provide the missing required inputs or switch to a more suitable skill.
## Response Template
Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:
1. Objective
2. Inputs Received
3. Assumptions
4. Workflow
5. Deliverable
6. Risks and Limits
7. Next Checks
If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.

# Sample Size & Power Calculator (Advanced)
Advanced sample size and power calculations for complex study designs including survival analysis, clustered designs, and multiple comparisons.
## When to Use
- Use this skill when the task needs Advanced sample size and power calculations for complex study designs including survival analysis, clustered designs, and multiple comparisons.
- Use this skill for academic writing tasks that require explicit assumptions, bounded scope, and a reproducible output format.
- Use this skill when you need a documented fallback path for missing inputs, execution errors, or partial evidence.
## Key Features
- Scope-focused workflow aligned to: Advanced sample size and power calculations for complex study designs including survival analysis, clustered designs, and multiple comparisons.
- Packaged executable path(s): `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference material available in `references/` for task-specific guidance.
- Structured execution path designed to keep outputs consistent and reviewable.
## Dependencies
See `## Prerequisites` above for related details.
- `Python`: `3.10+`. Repository baseline for current packaged skills.
- `numpy`: `unspecified`. Declared in `requirements.txt`.
- `scipy`: `unspecified`. Declared in `requirements.txt`.
## Example Usage
See `## Usage` above for related details.
```bash
cd "20260318/scientific-skills/Academic Writing/sample-size-power-calculator"
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
Example run plan:
1. Confirm the user input, output path, and any required config values.
2. Edit the in-file `CONFIG` block or documented parameters if the script uses fixed settings.
3. Run `python scripts/main.py` with the validated inputs.
4. Review the generated output and return the final artifact with any assumptions called out.
## Implementation Details
See `## Workflow` above for related details.
- Execution model: validate the request, choose the packaged workflow, and produce a bounded deliverable.
- Input controls: confirm the source files, scope limits, output format, and acceptance criteria before running any script.
- Primary implementation surface: `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference guidance: `references/` contains supporting rules, prompts, or checklists.
- Parameters to clarify first: input path, output path, scope filters, thresholds, and any domain-specific constraints.
- Output discipline: keep results reproducible, identify assumptions explicitly, and avoid undocumented side effects.
## Quick Check
Use this command to verify that the packaged script entry point can be parsed before deeper execution.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
```
## Audit-Ready Commands
Use these concrete commands for validation. They are intentionally self-contained and avoid placeholder paths.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
## Workflow
1. Confirm the user objective, required inputs, and non-negotiable constraints before doing detailed work.
2. Validate that the request matches the documented scope and stop early if the task would require unsupported assumptions.
3. Use the packaged script path or the documented reasoning path with only the inputs that are actually available.
4. Return a structured result that separates assumptions, deliverables, risks, and unresolved items.
5. If execution fails or inputs are incomplete, switch to the fallback path and state exactly what blocked full completion.
## Usage
```text
python scripts/main.py --test ttest --effect 0.5 --alpha 0.05 --power 0.8
python scripts/main.py --test survival --hazard-ratio 0.7 --alpha 0.05
```

# SMILES De-salter
ID: 176
Batch process chemical structure strings, removing salt ion portions and retaining only the active core.
## When to Use
- Use this skill when the task needs Batch process chemical SMILES strings to remove salt ions and retain.
- Use this skill for data analysis tasks that require explicit assumptions, bounded scope, and a reproducible output format.
- Use this skill when you need a documented fallback path for missing inputs, execution errors, or partial evidence.
## Key Features
- Scope-focused workflow aligned to: Analyze data with `smiles-de-salter` using a reproducible workflow, explicit validation, and structured outputs for review-ready interpretation.
- Packaged executable path(s): `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference material available in `references/` for task-specific guidance.
- Structured execution path designed to keep outputs consistent and reviewable.
## Dependencies
- Python >= 3.8
- rdkit >= 2022.03.1
## Example Usage
See `## Usage` above for related details.
```bash
cd "20260318/scientific-skills/Data Analytics/smiles-de-salter"
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
Example run plan:
1. Confirm the user input, output path, and any required config values.
2. Edit the in-file `CONFIG` block or documented parameters if the script uses fixed settings.
3. Run `python scripts/main.py` with the validated inputs.
4. Review the generated output and return the final artifact with any assumptions called out.
## Implementation Details
See `## Workflow` above for related details.
- Execution model: validate the request, choose the packaged workflow, and produce a bounded deliverable.
- Input controls: confirm the source files, scope limits, output format, and acceptance criteria before running any script.
- Primary implementation surface: `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference guidance: `references/` contains supporting rules, prompts, or checklists.
- Parameters to clarify first: input path, output path, scope filters, thresholds, and any domain-specific constraints.
- Output discipline: keep results reproducible, identify assumptions explicitly, and avoid undocumented side effects.
## Quick Check
Use this command to verify that the packaged script entry point can be parsed before deeper execution.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
```
## Audit-Ready Commands
Use these concrete commands for validation. They are intentionally self-contained and avoid placeholder paths.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
python scripts/main.py --input "Audit validation sample with explicit symptoms, history, assessment, and next-step plan."
```
## Workflow
1. Confirm the user objective, required inputs, and non-negotiable constraints before doing detailed work.
2. Validate that the request matches the documented scope and stop early if the task would require unsupported assumptions.
3. Use the packaged script path or the documented reasoning path with only the inputs that are actually available.
4. Return a structured result that separates assumptions, deliverables, risks, and unresolved items.
5. If execution fails or inputs are incomplete, switch to the fallback path and state exactly what blocked full completion.
## Function Description
This Skill is used to process chemical SMILES strings, automatically identifying and removing counterions, retaining only the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API).
### Salt Ion Identification Rules
- Identify multiple components through `.` separator
- Salt ions are usually smaller ions (such as Na⁺, Cl⁻, K⁺, Br⁻, etc.)
- Retain the component with the most atoms as the core
- Support common inorganic salts and organic acid salts
### Supported Salt Types
| Type | Examples |
|------|------|
| Inorganic salts | NaCl, KCl, HCl, H₂SO₄ |
| Organic acid salts | Citrate, Tartrate, Maleate |
| Quaternary ammonium salts | Various quaternary ammonium compounds |
## Usage
### Command Line
```text
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
# Example invocation: python scripts/main.py -i input.csv -o output.csv -c smiles_column
```
### Parameter Description
| Parameter | Short | Description | Default |
|------|------|------|--------|
| `--input` | `-i` | Input file path (CSV/TSV/SMILES) | Required |
| `--output` | `-o` | Output file path | desalted_output.csv |
| `--column` | `-c` | SMILES column name | smiles |
| `--keep-largest` | `-k` | Keep largest component (by atom count) | True |
### Single Processing Example
```text
python scripts/main.py -s "CC(C)CN1C(=O)N(C)C(=O)C2=C1N=CN2C.[Na+]"
# Output: CC(C)CN1C(=O)N(C)C(=O)C2=C1N=CN2C
```
## Input Format
### CSV/TSV Files
```csv
id,smiles,name
1,CCO.[Na+],ethanol_sodium
2,c1ccccc1.[Cl-],benzene_hcl
```
### Pure SMILES Files
One SMILES string per line:
```
CCO.[Na+]
c1ccccc1.[Cl-]
```
## Output Format
Output file contains original data and new processing result columns:
```csv
id,smiles,name,desalted_smiles,status
1,CCO.[Na+],ethanol_sodium,CCO,success
2,c1ccccc1.[Cl-],benzene_hcl,c1ccccc1,success
```
## Install Dependencies
```text
pip install rdkit pandas
```
## Processing Logic
1. **Parse SMILES**: Use RDKit to parse input string
2. **Component Splitting**: Identify multiple molecular components separated by `.`
3. **Core Identification**:
- Default selects component with the most atoms
- Optional: based on molecular weight, ring count, etc.
4. **Output Result**: Return clean core SMILES
## Error Handling
- If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
- If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
- If `scripts/main.py` fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
- Do not fabricate files, citations, data, search results, or execution outcomes.
## Examples
### Example 1: Simple Inorganic Salt
Input: `CCO.[Na+]`
Output: `CCO`
### Example 2: HCl Salt
Input: `CN1C=NC2=C1C(=O)N(C)C(=O)N2C.Cl`
Output: `CN1C=NC2=C1C(=O)N(C)C(=O)N2C`
### Example 3: Complex Organic Salt
Input: `CC(C)CN1C(=O)N(C)C(=O)C2=C1N=CN2C.C(C(=O)O)C(CC(=O)O)(C(=O)O)O`
Output: `CC(C)CN1C(=O)N(C)C(=O)C2=C1N=CN2C` (retains larger caffeine molecule)
## Notes
1. This tool assumes the core is the component with the most atoms
2. For co-crystals or multi-component drugs, manual review may be needed
3. Some hydrochloride salts may exist as `[Cl-]` or `Cl`
4. It is recommended to sample and verify results

## Output Requirements
Every final response should make these items explicit when they are relevant:
- Objective or requested deliverable
- Inputs used and assumptions introduced
- Workflow or decision path
- Core result, recommendation, or artifact
- Constraints, risks, caveats, or validation needs
- Unresolved items and next-step checks
## Input Validation
This skill accepts requests that match the documented purpose of `smiles-de-salter` and include enough context to complete the workflow safely.
Do not continue the workflow when the request is out of scope, missing a critical input, or would require unsupported assumptions. Instead respond:
> `smiles-de-salter` only handles its documented workflow. Please provide the missing required inputs or switch to a more suitable skill.
## Response Template
Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:
1. Objective
2. Inputs Received
3. Assumptions
4. Workflow
5. Deliverable
6. Risks and Limits
7. Next Checks
If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.
## Inputs to Collect
- Required inputs: the user goal, the primary data or source file, and the requested output format.
- Optional inputs: output directory, formatting preferences, and validation constraints.
- If a required input is unavailable, return a short clarification request before continuing.
## Output Contract
- Return a short summary, the main deliverables, and any assumptions that materially affect interpretation.
- If execution is partial, label what succeeded, what failed, and the next safe recovery step.
- Keep the final answer within the documented scope of the skill.
## Validation and Safety Rules
- Validate identifiers, file paths, and user-provided parameters before execution.
- Do not fabricate results, metrics, citations, or downstream conclusions.
- Use safe fallback behavior when dependencies, credentials, or required inputs are missing.
- Surface any execution failure with a concise diagnosis and recovery path.
FILE:references/runtime_checklist.md
# Runtime Checklist
- Category: `Data Analysis`
- Validate the user goal, required inputs, and output format before taking action.
- Ask a targeted clarification question when a required input is missing.
- Keep the response scoped to the documented workflow and state assumptions explicitly.
- Run a non-destructive smoke check before any file-dependent or data-dependent command.
- Recommended smoke check: `python -m py_compile scripts/main.py`
- If execution fails, stop and return a concise recovery path instead of fabricating results.

# Retraction Watcher
A specialized skill for identifying retracted, corrected, or questionable papers in academic reference lists before they compromise research integrity.
## When to Use
- Use this skill when the task needs Automatically scan document reference lists and check against Retraction.
- Use this skill for evidence insight tasks that require explicit assumptions, bounded scope, and a reproducible output format.
- Use this skill when you need a documented fallback path for missing inputs, execution errors, or partial evidence.
## Key Features
- Scope-focused workflow aligned to: Automatically scan document reference lists and check against Retraction.
- Packaged executable path(s): `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference material available in `references/` for task-specific guidance.
- Structured execution path designed to keep outputs consistent and reviewable.
## Dependencies
See `## Prerequisites` above for related details.
- `Python`: `3.10+`. Repository baseline for current packaged skills.
- `dataclasses`: `unspecified`. Declared in `requirements.txt`.
- `pypdf2`: `unspecified`. Declared in `requirements.txt`.
## Example Usage
```python
## Implementation Details
See `## Workflow` above for related details.
- Execution model: validate the request, choose the packaged workflow, and produce a bounded deliverable.
- Input controls: confirm the source files, scope limits, output format, and acceptance criteria before running any script.
- Primary implementation surface: `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference guidance: `references/` contains supporting rules, prompts, or checklists.
- Parameters to clarify first: input path, output path, scope filters, thresholds, and any domain-specific constraints.
- Output discipline: keep results reproducible, identify assumptions explicitly, and avoid undocumented side effects.
## Quick Check
Use this command to verify that the packaged script entry point can be parsed before deeper execution.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
```
## Audit-Ready Commands
Use these concrete commands for validation. They are intentionally self-contained and avoid placeholder paths.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
## Workflow
1. Confirm the user objective, required inputs, and non-negotiable constraints before doing detailed work.
2. Validate that the request matches the documented scope and stop early if the task would require unsupported assumptions.
3. Use the packaged script path or the documented reasoning path with only the inputs that are actually available.
4. Return a structured result that separates assumptions, deliverables, risks, and unresolved items.
5. If execution fails or inputs are incomplete, switch to the fallback path and state exactly what blocked full completion.
## Purpose
Academic misconduct and errors can lead to paper retractions. Citing retracted work undermines research credibility. This skill:
- Scans reference lists from manuscripts, papers, or bibliographies
- Cross-checks citations against Retraction Watch and other retraction databases
- Identifies papers with retraction notices, expressions of concern, or corrections
- Provides detailed reports with retraction reasons and dates
## Trigger Conditions
Activate this skill when:
1. User provides a document with references and asks to check for retractions
2. User explicitly requests "check my references" or "scan for retracted papers"
3. User submits a bibliography or reference list for verification
4. Pre-submission manuscript review is requested
5. User wants to verify citation integrity
## Input Format
Accepted inputs:
- PDF files (manuscripts, papers, theses)
- Plain text files (.txt, .bib, .ris)
- Raw text containing reference lists
- URLs to papers or reference lists
- Clipboard content with citations
## Output Format
### Report Header
```
🔍 RETRACTION WATCH REPORT
Documents Scanned: [N]
References Found: [N]
Check Date: [YYYY-MM-DD]
```
### Status Categories
**🔴 RETRACTED** - Paper has been officially retracted
- Reason for retraction
- Retraction date
- Original DOI/PMID
- Recommended action: Remove citation
**🟡 EXPRESSION OF CONCERN** - Journal has raised concerns
- Nature of concern
- Date issued
- Recommended action: Verify current status, consider alternative sources
**🟠 CORRECTED** - Paper has published corrections/errata
- Correction details
- Date of correction
- Recommended action: Check if correction affects cited claims
**🟢 CLEAR** - No retraction issues found
## Technical Approach
### Citation Parsing Strategy
1. **Format Detection**: Identify citation style (APA, MLA, Vancouver, Chicago, etc.)
2. **Field Extraction**: Parse DOI, PMID, title, authors, journal, year
3. **Identifier Resolution**: Normalize DOIs (remove prefixes, validate format)
4. **Title Matching**: Extract article titles for fuzzy matching
### Database Checking
1. **Retraction Watch Database** - Primary source for retraction data
2. **Crossref API** - Retraction metadata via "update-type: retraction"
3. **PubMed API** - Retraction notices via publication type filters
4. **Open Retractions** - Aggregated retraction data
### Matching Algorithm
- **Exact Match**: DOI/PMID exact match (highest confidence)
- **Title Match**: Normalized title comparison (90%+ similarity threshold)
- **Author + Year**: Secondary verification for ambiguous matches
- **Fuzzy Matching**: Handle minor title variations and typos
## Difficulty Level
**Medium-High** - Requires:
- Robust citation parsing across multiple formats
- API integration with retraction databases
- Handling of partial/incomplete citation data
- Fuzzy matching for title-based lookups
- Rate limiting and caching for API calls
## Quality Criteria
A successful scan must:
- [ ] Parse >90% of citations correctly from standard formats
- [ ] Achieve <1% false positive rate on retraction detection
- [ ] Provide actionable recommendations for each flagged citation
- [ ] Handle missing DOIs/PMIDs via title matching fallback
- [ ] Complete checks within reasonable time (<30s for 50 references)
- [ ] Preserve reference numbering for easy identification
## Limitations
- Requires internet connection for database lookups
- Rate limits may apply to free API tiers
- Very recent retractions (<48 hours) may not be indexed
- Title-only matching may produce false positives with similar titles
- Non-English papers may have limited coverage
- Preprint citations (arXiv, bioRxiv) typically not tracked for retractions

```
## Evaluation Criteria
### Success Metrics
- [ ] Successfully executes main functionality
- [ ] Output meets quality standards
- [ ] Handles edge cases gracefully
- [ ] Performance is acceptable
### Test Cases
1. **Basic Functionality**: Standard input → Expected output
2. **Edge Case**: Invalid input → Graceful error handling
3. **Performance**: Large dataset → Acceptable processing time
## Lifecycle Status
- **Current Stage**: Draft
- **Next Review Date**: 2026-03-06
- **Known Issues**: None
- **Planned Improvements**:
- Performance optimization
- Additional feature support
## Output Requirements
Every final response should make these items explicit when they are relevant:
- Objective or requested deliverable
- Inputs used and assumptions introduced
- Workflow or decision path
- Core result, recommendation, or artifact
- Constraints, risks, caveats, or validation needs
- Unresolved items and next-step checks
## Error Handling
- If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
- If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
- If `scripts/main.py` fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
- Do not fabricate files, citations, data, search results, or execution outcomes.
## Input Validation
This skill accepts requests that match the documented purpose of `retraction-watcher` and include enough context to complete the workflow safely.
Do not continue the workflow when the request is out of scope, missing a critical input, or would require unsupported assumptions. Instead respond:
> `retraction-watcher` only handles its documented workflow. Please provide the missing required inputs or switch to a more suitable skill.
## References
- [references/audit-reference.md](references/audit-reference.md) - Supported scope, audit commands, and fallback boundaries
## Response Template
Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:
1. Objective
2. Inputs Received
3. Assumptions
4. Workflow
5. Deliverable
6. Risks and Limits
7. Next Checks
If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.

# Audit Reference
## Scope
- Skill: `retraction-watcher`
- Core purpose: Automatically scan document reference lists and check against Retraction.
- Use only within the documented workflow and category boundary defined in `SKILL.md`
## Supported Audit Paths
- `python -m py_compile scripts/main.py`
- `python scripts/main.py --help`
## Fallback Boundary

# Resubmission Deadline Tracker
Track manuscript resubmission deadlines and generate actionable task schedules based on remaining time.
## Quick Check
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
## When to Use
- Use this skill when tracking one or more manuscript resubmission deadlines and generating a task breakdown.
- Use this skill when assessing urgency level and creating a phase-appropriate revision schedule.
- Do not use this skill to sync with journal submission systems, send automated reminders, or manage grant deadlines.
## Workflow
1. Confirm the manuscript title, journal, deadline date, and reviewer issue counts.
2. **Timezone validation:** If `--timezone` is not provided, default to `Asia/Shanghai` and emit a note: "Deadline calculated using Asia/Shanghai timezone. Use `--timezone` to specify your local timezone (e.g., `America/New_York`, `Europe/London`)."
3. Calculate remaining time and assign urgency level (standard / urgent / emergency).
4. Generate a phase-appropriate task schedule based on the urgency level.
5. Return the deadline summary, task breakdown, and risk notes.
6. If inputs are incomplete, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
## Usage
```text
# Add new deadline
python scripts/main.py --add --title "Cancer Research Paper" \
--journal "Nature Medicine" --deadline "2024-03-15" \
--major-issues 2 --minor-issues 8
# List all tracked deadlines
python scripts/main.py --list
# Show details for specific paper
python scripts/main.py --show "Cancer Research Paper"
# Generate task breakdown
python scripts/main.py --tasks "Cancer Research Paper"
# Update progress
python scripts/main.py --update "Cancer Research Paper" --progress 60
```
## Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| `--deadline` | date | Yes | — | Target submission date (YYYY-MM-DD) |
| `--title` | string | No | — | Manuscript title |
| `--journal` | string | No | — | Target journal name |
| `--major-issues` | integer | No | 0 | Count of major reviewer concerns |
| `--minor-issues` | integer | No | 0 | Count of minor reviewer concerns |
| `--timezone` | string | No | Asia/Shanghai | User timezone |
## Urgency Levels
| Remaining Time | Level | Mode |
|----------------|-------|------|
| > 14 days | Standard | Full 4-phase schedule |
| 3–14 days | Urgent | Triage and P0-only execution |
| < 3 days | Emergency | Minimum viable changes + extension request |
**Note:** The 3–7 day range was previously labeled "Urgent" but the boundary is 3–14 days. Any remaining time between 3 and 14 days triggers Urgent mode.
## Output
- Deadline summary with urgency status
- Phase-by-phase task schedule
- Daily targets and checkbox list
- Risk notes (timezone, submission type, buffer time)
## Stress-Case Rules
For complex multi-constraint requests, always include these explicit blocks:
1. Assumptions
2. Deadline and Urgency Assessment
3. Task Schedule
4. Risks and Caveats
5. Next Checks
## Error Handling
- If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
- If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
- If `scripts/main.py` fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
- Do not fabricate deadline dates, journal policies, or task estimates.
## Input Validation
This skill accepts: a manuscript resubmission deadline with optional reviewer issue counts and journal details.
If the request does not involve manuscript resubmission deadline tracking — for example, asking to manage grant deadlines, sync with journal systems, or send automated email reminders — do not proceed with the workflow. Instead respond:
> "resubmission-deadline-tracker is designed to track manuscript resubmission deadlines and generate task schedules. Your request appears to be outside this scope. Please provide a deadline date and manuscript details, or use a more appropriate tool."
## Response Template
Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:
1. Objective
2. Inputs Received
3. Assumptions
4. Workflow
5. Deliverable
6. Risks and Limits
7. Next Checks
If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.

# POLISH_CHANGELOG — resubmission-deadline-tracker
**Original Score:** 84
**Polish Date:** 2026-03-19
## Issues Addressed
### P0 / Veto Fixes
- None (no veto failures)
### P1 Fixes
- **Timezone default undocumented:** Added step 2 to workflow with an explicit timezone default note. When `--timezone` is not provided, the skill now emits a note stating it defaults to `Asia/Shanghai` and provides guidance to specify timezone explicitly.
- **Urgency level boundary gap:** Fixed the Urgency Levels table — the 3–7 day range was inconsistent with the actual 3–14 day boundary for Urgent mode. Added a clarifying note.
### P2 Fixes
- None beyond P1 fixes.
### QS-1 (Input Validation)
- Already present and well-formed.
### QS-2 (Progressive Disclosure)
- File is 120 lines — within 300-line limit. No content moved to references/.
### QS-3 (Canonical YAML Frontmatter)
- Already present with all four required fields.

# Residency Interview Prep
Residency interview preparation assistant for the NRMP Match process.
## When to Use
- Use this skill when the task needs Mock interview preparation tool for residency Match interviews. Generates.
- Use this skill for academic writing tasks that require explicit assumptions, bounded scope, and a reproducible output format.
- Use this skill when you need a documented fallback path for missing inputs, execution errors, or partial evidence.
## Key Features
See `## Features` above for related details.
- Scope-focused workflow aligned to: Mock interview preparation tool for residency Match interviews. Generates.
- Packaged executable path(s): `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference material available in `references/` for task-specific guidance.
- Structured execution path designed to keep outputs consistent and reviewable.
## Dependencies
See `## Prerequisites` above for related details.
- `Python`: `3.10+`. Repository baseline for current packaged skills.
- `Third-party packages`: `not explicitly version-pinned in this skill package`. Add pinned versions if this skill needs stricter environment control.
## Example Usage
```bash
cd "20260318/scientific-skills/Academic Writing/residency-interview-prep"
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
Example run plan:
1. Confirm the user input, output path, and any required config values.
2. Edit the in-file `CONFIG` block or documented parameters if the script uses fixed settings.
3. Run `python scripts/main.py` with the validated inputs.
4. Review the generated output and return the final artifact with any assumptions called out.
## Implementation Details
See `## Workflow` above for related details.
- Execution model: validate the request, choose the packaged workflow, and produce a bounded deliverable.
- Input controls: confirm the source files, scope limits, output format, and acceptance criteria before running any script.
- Primary implementation surface: `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference guidance: `references/` contains supporting rules, prompts, or checklists.
- Parameters to clarify first: input path, output path, scope filters, thresholds, and any domain-specific constraints.
- Output discipline: keep results reproducible, identify assumptions explicitly, and avoid undocumented side effects.
## Quick Check
Use this command to verify that the packaged script entry point can be parsed before deeper execution.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
```
## Audit-Ready Commands
Use these concrete commands for validation. They are intentionally self-contained and avoid placeholder paths.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py demo
```
## Workflow
1. Confirm the user objective, required inputs, and non-negotiable constraints before doing detailed work.
2. Validate that the request matches the documented scope and stop early if the task would require unsupported assumptions.
3. Use the packaged script path or the documented reasoning path with only the inputs that are actually available.
4. Return a structured result that separates assumptions, deliverables, risks, and unresolved items.
5. If execution fails or inputs are incomplete, switch to the fallback path and state exactly what blocked full completion.
## Features
- Behavioral question generation (STAR format)
- Clinical scenario questions
- Program-specific research questions
- Response structure feedback
- Common question bank (100+ questions)
## Input Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `question_type` | str | Yes | Type: "behavioral", "clinical", "program", "ethical" |
| `specialty` | str | No | Target specialty (e.g., "internal_medicine", "surgery") |
| `experience` | str | No | User's experience context |
## Output Format
```json
{
"question": "string",
"category": "string",
"suggested_structure": "string",
"key_points": ["string"],
"common_pitfalls": ["string"]
}
```
## Risk Assessment
| Risk Indicator | Assessment | Level |
|----------------|------------|-------|
| Code Execution | Python/R scripts executed locally | Medium |
| Network Access | No external API calls | Low |
| File System Access | Read input files, write output files | Medium |
| Instruction Tampering | Standard prompt guidelines | Low |
| Data Exposure | Output files saved to workspace | Low |
## Security Checklist
- [ ] No hardcoded credentials or API keys
- [ ] No unauthorized file system access (../)
- [ ] Output does not expose sensitive information
- [ ] Prompt injection protections in place
- [ ] Input file paths validated (no ../ traversal)
- [ ] Output directory restricted to workspace
- [ ] Script execution in sandboxed environment
- [ ] Error messages sanitized (no stack traces exposed)
- [ ] Dependencies audited
## Prerequisites
No additional Python packages required.
## Evaluation Criteria
### Success Metrics
- [ ] Successfully executes main functionality
- [ ] Output meets quality standards
- [ ] Handles edge cases gracefully
- [ ] Performance is acceptable
### Test Cases
1. **Basic Functionality**: Standard input → Expected output
2. **Edge Case**: Invalid input → Graceful error handling
3. **Performance**: Large dataset → Acceptable processing time
## Lifecycle Status
- **Current Stage**: Draft
- **Next Review Date**: 2026-03-06
- **Known Issues**: None
- **Planned Improvements**:
- Performance optimization
- Additional feature support
## Output Requirements
Every final response should make these items explicit when they are relevant:
- Objective or requested deliverable
- Inputs used and assumptions introduced
- Workflow or decision path
- Core result, recommendation, or artifact
- Constraints, risks, caveats, or validation needs
- Unresolved items and next-step checks
## Error Handling
- If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
- If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
- If `scripts/main.py` fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
- Do not fabricate files, citations, data, search results, or execution outcomes.
## Input Validation
This skill accepts requests that match the documented purpose of `residency-interview-prep` and include enough context to complete the workflow safely.
Do not continue the workflow when the request is out of scope, missing a critical input, or would require unsupported assumptions. Instead respond:
> `residency-interview-prep` only handles its documented workflow. Please provide the missing required inputs or switch to a more suitable skill.
## Response Template
Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:
1. Objective
2. Inputs Received
3. Assumptions
4. Workflow
5. Deliverable
6. Risks and Limits
7. Next Checks
If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.

| Risk Indicator | Assessment | Level |
|----------------|------------|-------|
| Code Execution | Python/R scripts executed locally | Medium |
| Network Access | No external API calls | Low |
| File System Access | Read input files, write output files | Medium |
| Instruction Tampering | Standard prompt guidelines | Low |
| Data Exposure | Output files saved to workspace | Low |
## Security Checklist
- [ ] No hardcoded credentials or API keys
- [ ] No unauthorized file system access (../)
- [ ] Output does not expose sensitive information
- [ ] Prompt injection protections in place
- [ ] Input file paths validated (no ../ traversal)
- [ ] Output directory restricted to workspace
- [ ] Script execution in sandboxed environment
- [ ] Error messages sanitized (no stack traces exposed)
- [ ] Dependencies audited
## Prerequisites
```text
# Python dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
## Evaluation Criteria
### Success Metrics
- [ ] Successfully executes main functionality
- [ ] Output meets quality standards
- [ ] Handles edge cases gracefully
- [ ] Performance is acceptable
### Test Cases
1. **Basic Functionality**: Standard input → Expected output
2. **Edge Case**: Invalid input → Graceful error handling
3. **Performance**: Large dataset → Acceptable processing time
## Lifecycle Status
- **Current Stage**: Draft
- **Next Review Date**: 2026-03-06
- **Known Issues**: None
- **Planned Improvements**:
- Performance optimization
- Additional feature support
## Output Requirements
Every final response should make these items explicit when they are relevant:
- Objective or requested deliverable
- Inputs used and assumptions introduced
- Workflow or decision path
- Core result, recommendation, or artifact
- Constraints, risks, caveats, or validation needs
- Unresolved items and next-step checks
## Error Handling
- If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
- If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
- If `scripts/main.py` fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
- Do not fabricate files, citations, data, search results, or execution outcomes.
## Input Validation
This skill accepts requests that match the documented purpose of `referral-letter-generator` and include enough context to complete the workflow safely.
Do not continue the workflow when the request is out of scope, missing a critical input, or would require unsupported assumptions. Instead respond:
> `referral-letter-generator` only handles its documented workflow. Please provide the missing required inputs or switch to a more suitable skill.
## Response Template
Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:
1. Objective
2. Inputs Received
3. Assumptions
4. Workflow
5. Deliverable
6. Risks and Limits
7. Next Checks
If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.

- Date of birth
- Gender
- Medical Record Number (MRN)
- Contact information
- Insurance information (when relevant)
### 3. Clinical Summary
#### Chief Complaint
- Patient's primary concern in their own words when possible
- Duration and severity indicators
#### History of Present Illness (HPI)
- Symptom progression timeline
- Relevant contextual factors
- Interventions already attempted
- Response to current treatment

### 6. Requested Actions
- Specific questions to address
- Preferred timeframe
- Follow-up arrangements
## Urgency Levels
| Level | Definition | Timeframe |

# Reference Style Sync
One-click synchronization and standardization of reference formats in literature management tools, intelligently fixing metadata errors.
## When to Use
- Use this skill when the task needs One-click synchronization and standardization of reference formats in literature management tools, intelligently fixing metadata errors.
- Use this skill for academic writing tasks that require explicit assumptions, bounded scope, and a reproducible output format.
- Use this skill when you need a documented fallback path for missing inputs, execution errors, or partial evidence.
## Key Features
See `## Features` above for related details.
- Scope-focused workflow aligned to: One-click synchronization and standardization of reference formats in literature management tools, intelligently fixing metadata errors.
- Packaged executable path(s): `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference material available in `references/` for task-specific guidance.
- Structured execution path designed to keep outputs consistent and reviewable.
## Dependencies
See `## Prerequisites` above for related details.
- `Python`: `3.10+`. Repository baseline for current packaged skills.
- `dataclasses`: `unspecified`. Declared in `requirements.txt`.
## Example Usage
See `## Usage` above for related details.
```bash
cd "20260318/scientific-skills/Academic Writing/reference-style-sync"
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
Example run plan:
1. Confirm the user input, output path, and any required config values.
2. Edit the in-file `CONFIG` block or documented parameters if the script uses fixed settings.
3. Run `python scripts/main.py` with the validated inputs.
4. Review the generated output and return the final artifact with any assumptions called out.
## Implementation Details
See `## Workflow` above for related details.
- Execution model: validate the request, choose the packaged workflow, and produce a bounded deliverable.
- Input controls: confirm the source files, scope limits, output format, and acceptance criteria before running any script.
- Primary implementation surface: `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference guidance: `references/` contains supporting rules, prompts, or checklists.
- Parameters to clarify first: input path, output path, scope filters, thresholds, and any domain-specific constraints.
- Output discipline: keep results reproducible, identify assumptions explicitly, and avoid undocumented side effects.
## Quick Check
Use this command to verify that the packaged script entry point can be parsed before deeper execution.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
```
## Audit-Ready Commands
Use these concrete commands for validation. They are intentionally self-contained and avoid placeholder paths.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
python scripts/main.py -h
```
## Workflow
1. Confirm the user objective, required inputs, and non-negotiable constraints before doing detailed work.
2. Validate that the request matches the documented scope and stop early if the task would require unsupported assumptions.
3. Use the packaged script path or the documented reasoning path with only the inputs that are actually available.
4. Return a structured result that separates assumptions, deliverables, risks, and unresolved items.
5. If execution fails or inputs are incomplete, switch to the fallback path and state exactly what blocked full completion.
## Overview
Reference Style Sync can:
- Automatically detect and fix erroneous metadata scraped in Zotero/EndNote
- Unify literature formats to standard citation styles (APA, MLA, AMA, Vancouver, etc.)
- Batch process entire literature libraries
- Intelligently complete missing fields (DOI, page numbers, volume/issue, etc.)
- Detect duplicate entries and merge them
## Supported Literature Management Tools
- **Zotero**: Supports RDF, BibTeX, CSL JSON, RIS format export
- **EndNote**: Supports XML, RIS, BibTeX format export
- **Universal Formats**: BibTeX, RIS, CSV, JSON
## Features
### 🔧 Metadata Repair
- Author name format standardization
- Journal name abbreviation/full name unification
- DOI format validation and completion
- Page number format normalization
- Date format unification
### 🎨 Format Sync
- Batch conversion to target citation format
- Field order standardization
- Punctuation unification
- Case normalization
### 🔍 Quality Check
- Missing field detection
- Duplicate entry identification
- Invalid DOI/URL marking
- Journal name spell checking
## Usage
### Command Line Interface
```text
# Process single file

```
## Technical Details
**Difficulty**: Medium
**Dependencies**: Python 3.8+, regex, titlecase
**Data Processing**: Supports 10000+ entries batch processing
## Supported Citation Formats
- **AMA**: American Medical Association (11th Edition)
- **APA**: American Psychological Association (7th Edition)
- **MLA**: Modern Language Association (9th Edition)
- **Vancouver**: ICMJE Recommended Format
- **Chicago**: Chicago Manual of Style (17th Edition)
- **IEEE**: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
## Error Handling
- If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
- If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
- If `scripts/main.py` fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
- Do not fabricate files, citations, data, search results, or execution outcomes.
## Notes
1. It is recommended to backup the original library before processing
2. Metadata repair is based on built-in rule library; complex cases may require manual review
3. Journal abbreviations follow ISO 4 standard
4. DOI validation uses regex patterns, does not actually resolve and verify
## Risk Assessment
| Risk Indicator | Assessment | Level |
|----------------|------------|-------|
| Code Execution | Python/R scripts executed locally | Medium |
| Network Access | No external API calls | Low |
| File System Access | Read input files, write output files | Medium |
| Instruction Tampering | Standard prompt guidelines | Low |
| Data Exposure | Output files saved to workspace | Low |
## Security Checklist
- [ ] No hardcoded credentials or API keys
- [ ] No unauthorized file system access (../)
- [ ] Output does not expose sensitive information
- [ ] Prompt injection protections in place
- [ ] Input file paths validated (no ../ traversal)
- [ ] Output directory restricted to workspace
- [ ] Script execution in sandboxed environment
- [ ] Error messages sanitized (no stack traces exposed)
- [ ] Dependencies audited
## Prerequisites
```text
# Python dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
## Evaluation Criteria
### Success Metrics
- [ ] Successfully executes main functionality
- [ ] Output meets quality standards
- [ ] Handles edge cases gracefully
- [ ] Performance is acceptable
### Test Cases
1. **Basic Functionality**: Standard input → Expected output
2. **Edge Case**: Invalid input → Graceful error handling
3. **Performance**: Large dataset → Acceptable processing time
## Lifecycle Status
- **Current Stage**: Draft
- **Next Review Date**: 2026-03-06
- **Known Issues**: None
- **Planned Improvements**:
- Performance optimization
- Additional feature support
## Output Requirements
Every final response should make these items explicit when they are relevant:
- Objective or requested deliverable
- Inputs used and assumptions introduced
- Workflow or decision path
- Core result, recommendation, or artifact
- Constraints, risks, caveats, or validation needs
- Unresolved items and next-step checks
## Input Validation
This skill accepts requests that match the documented purpose of `reference-style-sync` and include enough context to complete the workflow safely.
Do not continue the workflow when the request is out of scope, missing a critical input, or would require unsupported assumptions. Instead respond:
> `reference-style-sync` only handles its documented workflow. Please provide the missing required inputs or switch to a more suitable skill.
## References
- [references/audit-reference.md](references/audit-reference.md) - Supported scope, audit commands, and fallback boundaries
## Response Template
Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:
1. Objective
2. Inputs Received
3. Assumptions
4. Workflow
5. Deliverable
6. Risks and Limits
7. Next Checks
If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.
FILE:references/audit-reference.md
# Audit Reference
## Scope
- Skill directory: `reference-style-sync`
- Core purpose: One-click synchronization and standardization of reference formats in literature management tools, intelligently fixing metadata errors.
- Use only within the documented workflow and category boundary defined in `SKILL.md`
## Supported Audit Paths
- `python -m py_compile scripts/main.py`
- `python scripts/main.py --help`
- `python scripts/main.py -h`
## Fallback Boundary
If required inputs are incomplete, the skill should still return:
- the missing required inputs
- the steps that can still be completed safely
- assumptions that need confirmation before execution
- the next checks before accepting the final deliverable

# Recommendation Letter Assistant
Assists mentors and faculty in writing effective recommendation letters.
## When to Use
- Use this skill when the task needs Helps faculty and mentors draft standardized recommendation letters for.
- Use this skill for academic writing tasks that require explicit assumptions, bounded scope, and a reproducible output format.
- Use this skill when you need a documented fallback path for missing inputs, execution errors, or partial evidence.
## Key Features
See `## Features` above for related details.
- Scope-focused workflow aligned to: Helps faculty and mentors draft standardized recommendation letters for.
- Packaged executable path(s): `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference material available in `references/` for task-specific guidance.
- Structured execution path designed to keep outputs consistent and reviewable.
## Dependencies
See `## Prerequisites` above for related details.
- `Python`: `3.10+`. Repository baseline for current packaged skills.
- `Third-party packages`: `not explicitly version-pinned in this skill package`. Add pinned versions if this skill needs stricter environment control.
## Example Usage
```bash
cd "20260318/scientific-skills/Academic Writing/recommendation-letter-assistant"
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
Example run plan:
1. Confirm the user input, output path, and any required config values.
2. Edit the in-file `CONFIG` block or documented parameters if the script uses fixed settings.
3. Run `python scripts/main.py` with the validated inputs.
4. Review the generated output and return the final artifact with any assumptions called out.
## Implementation Details
See `## Workflow` above for related details.
- Execution model: validate the request, choose the packaged workflow, and produce a bounded deliverable.
- Input controls: confirm the source files, scope limits, output format, and acceptance criteria before running any script.
- Primary implementation surface: `scripts/main.py`.
- Reference guidance: `references/` contains supporting rules, prompts, or checklists.
- Parameters to clarify first: input path, output path, scope filters, thresholds, and any domain-specific constraints.
- Output discipline: keep results reproducible, identify assumptions explicitly, and avoid undocumented side effects.
## Quick Check
Use this command to verify that the packaged script entry point can be parsed before deeper execution.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
```
## Audit-Ready Commands
Use these concrete commands for validation. They are intentionally self-contained and avoid placeholder paths.
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py demo
```
## Workflow
1. Confirm the user objective, required inputs, and non-negotiable constraints before doing detailed work.
2. Validate that the request matches the documented scope and stop early if the task would require unsupported assumptions.
3. Use the packaged script path or the documented reasoning path with only the inputs that are actually available.
4. Return a structured result that separates assumptions, deliverables, risks, and unresolved items.
5. If execution fails or inputs are incomplete, switch to the fallback path and state exactly what blocked full completion.
## Features
- Structured letter templates
- Competency-based content suggestions
- Strength/weakness framing
- Specialty-specific customization
- MSPE/Dean's Letter alignment
## Input Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|-------------|

| `duration` | str | Yes | Length of relationship |
| `key_strengths` | list | Yes | Applicant's top qualities |
| `context` | str | No | Residency, fellowship, job, etc. |
## Output Format
```json
{
"letter_draft": "string",
"opening": "string",
"body_paragraphs": ["string"],
"closing": "string",
"competencies_addressed": ["string"]
}
```
## Risk Assessment
| Risk Indicator | Assessment | Level |
|----------------|------------|-------|
| Code Execution | Python/R scripts executed locally | Medium |
| Network Access | No external API calls | Low |
| File System Access | Read input files, write output files | Medium |
| Instruction Tampering | Standard prompt guidelines | Low |
| Data Exposure | Output files saved to workspace | Low |
## Security Checklist
- [ ] No hardcoded credentials or API keys
- [ ] No unauthorized file system access (../)
- [ ] Output does not expose sensitive information
- [ ] Prompt injection protections in place
- [ ] Input file paths validated (no ../ traversal)
- [ ] Output directory restricted to workspace
- [ ] Script execution in sandboxed environment
- [ ] Error messages sanitized (no stack traces exposed)
- [ ] Dependencies audited
## Prerequisites
No additional Python packages required.
## Evaluation Criteria
### Success Metrics
- [ ] Successfully executes main functionality
- [ ] Output meets quality standards
- [ ] Handles edge cases gracefully
- [ ] Performance is acceptable
### Test Cases
1. **Basic Functionality**: Standard input → Expected output
2. **Edge Case**: Invalid input → Graceful error handling
3. **Performance**: Large dataset → Acceptable processing time
## Lifecycle Status
- **Current Stage**: Draft
- **Next Review Date**: 2026-03-06
- **Known Issues**: None
- **Planned Improvements**:
- Performance optimization
- Additional feature support
## Output Requirements
Every final response should make these items explicit when they are relevant:
- Objective or requested deliverable
- Inputs used and assumptions introduced
- Workflow or decision path
- Core result, recommendation, or artifact
- Constraints, risks, caveats, or validation needs
- Unresolved items and next-step checks
## Error Handling
- If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
- If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
- If `scripts/main.py` fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
- Do not fabricate files, citations, data, search results, or execution outcomes.
## Input Validation
This skill accepts requests that match the documented purpose of `recommendation-letter-assistant` and include enough context to complete the workflow safely.
Do not continue the workflow when the request is out of scope, missing a critical input, or would require unsupported assumptions. Instead respond:
> `recommendation-letter-assistant` only handles its documented workflow. Please provide the missing required inputs or switch to a more suitable skill.
## Response Template
Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:
1. Objective
2. Inputs Received
3. Assumptions
4. Workflow
5. Deliverable
6. Risks and Limits
7. Next Checks
If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.

## Data Sources
1. **PubMed/NCBI** - Biomedical literature database
2. **Google Scholar** - Academic citation data
3. **ChEMBL** - Bioactivity data
4. **PubChem** - Chemical structure information
5. **Local Cache** - Historical query results and offline data
## Scoring Algorithm
Alternative scoring is based on the following dimensions:
```
Total Score = Citation Score × 0.4 + Recency Score × 0.3 + Similarity Score × 0.3
Where:
- Citation Score = log(citation count of this alternative) / log(max citation count)
- Recency Score = Proportion of citations in the last 5 years
- Similarity Score = Chemical structure similarity + functional characteristic match
```
## Installation
```text
# Install dependencies
pip install -r skills/reagent-substitute-scout/requirements.txt
# Configure API keys
cp skills/reagent-substitute-scout/config.example.json ~/.config/reagent-substitute-scout/config.json
# Edit configuration file and fill in API keys
```
## Limitations
- Literature data completeness depends on database API availability
- Chemical structure similarity calculation requires RDKit support
- Some specialized reagents may lack sufficient public literature data
- It is recommended to combine with actual laboratory conditions to verify alternatives
## Version History
- v1.0.0 (2025-02-06) - Initial version, supports basic query and scoring functions

## Risk Assessment
| Risk Indicator | Assessment | Level |
|----------------|------------|-------|
| Code Execution | Python scripts with tools | High |
| Network Access | External API calls | High |
| File System Access | Read/write data | Medium |
| Instruction Tampering | Standard prompt guidelines | Low |
| Data Exposure | Data handled securely | Medium |
## Security Checklist
- [ ] No hardcoded credentials or API keys
- [ ] No unauthorized file system access (../)
- [ ] Output does not expose sensitive information
- [ ] Prompt injection protections in place
- [ ] API requests use HTTPS only
- [ ] Input validated against allowed patterns
- [ ] API timeout and retry mechanisms implemented
- [ ] Output directory restricted to workspace
- [ ] Script execution in sandboxed environment
- [ ] Error messages sanitized (no internal paths exposed)
- [ ] Dependencies audited
- [ ] No exposure of internal service architecture
## Prerequisites
```text
# Python dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
## Evaluation Criteria
### Success Metrics
- [ ] Successfully executes main functionality
- [ ] Output meets quality standards
- [ ] Handles edge cases gracefully
- [ ] Performance is acceptable
### Test Cases
1. **Basic Functionality**: Standard input → Expected output
2. **Edge Case**: Invalid input → Graceful error handling
3. **Performance**: Large dataset → Acceptable processing time
## Lifecycle Status
- **Current Stage**: Draft
- **Next Review Date**: 2026-03-06
- **Known Issues**: None
- **Planned Improvements**:
- Performance optimization
- Additional feature support
## Output Requirements
Every final response should make these items explicit when they are relevant:
- Objective or requested deliverable
- Inputs used and assumptions introduced
- Workflow or decision path
- Core result, recommendation, or artifact
- Constraints, risks, caveats, or validation needs
- Unresolved items and next-step checks
## Error Handling
- If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
- If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
- If `scripts/main.py` fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
- Do not fabricate files, citations, data, search results, or execution outcomes.
## Input Validation
This skill accepts requests that match the documented purpose of `reagent-substitute-scout` and include enough context to complete the workflow safely.
Do not continue the workflow when the request is out of scope, missing a critical input, or would require unsupported assumptions. Instead respond:
> `reagent-substitute-scout` only handles its documented workflow. Please provide the missing required inputs or switch to a more suitable skill.
## References
- [references/audit-reference.md](references/audit-reference.md) - Supported scope, audit commands, and fallback boundaries
## Response Template
Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:
1. Objective
2. Inputs Received
3. Assumptions
4. Workflow
5. Deliverable
6. Risks and Limits
7. Next Checks
If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.

# Audit Reference
## Scope
- Skill: `reagent-substitute-scout`
- Core purpose: Find validated alternative reagents based on literature citation data.
- Use only within the documented workflow and category boundary defined in `SKILL.md`
## Supported Audit Paths
- `python -m py_compile scripts/main.py`
- `python scripts/main.py --help`
## Fallback Boundary
If required inputs are incomplete, the skill should still return:
- the missing required inputs
- the steps that can still be completed safely
- assumptions that need confirmation before execution
- the next checks before accepting the final deliverable

# Reagent Expiry Alert
Scan reagent bottle barcodes or IDs, log expiration dates, and alert before expiry to support safe laboratory inventory management.
## Quick Check
```bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
```
## When to Use
- Use this skill when logging a new reagent with its expiry date into the inventory.
- Use this skill when checking for reagents approaching expiration (30/60/90-day alerts).
- Do not use this skill to manage controlled substances, biological hazards requiring special disposal, or reagents subject to regulatory chain-of-custody requirements.
## Workflow
1. Confirm the reagent barcode/ID, expiry date, and action (scan/log or check alerts).
2. Validate that the request is for reagent expiry tracking, not chemical safety assessment or disposal guidance.
3. **Date validation:** If `--expiry` is provided, validate that it is a valid YYYY-MM-DD date. If the date is in the past, emit a warning: "This reagent is already expired as of [date]. It will be logged with an Expired alert status."
4. Log the reagent or run the alert check using the packaged script.
5. Return expiration status, alert level, and reorder recommendations.
6. If inputs are incomplete, state which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
## Usage
```text
# Log a new reagent
python scripts/main.py --scan "REAGENT-001" --name "Tris Buffer" --expiry 2025-12-31 --location "Shelf A"
# Check for upcoming expirations
python scripts/main.py --check-alerts --alert-days 30
# Check with custom alert window
python scripts/main.py --check-alerts --alert-days 60
```
## Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| `--scan` | string | No | — | Reagent barcode or ID |
| `--name` | string | No | — | Reagent name |
| `--expiry` | date | No | — | Expiration date (YYYY-MM-DD) |
| `--location` | string | No | — | Storage location |
| `--quantity` | string | No | — | Quantity on hand |
| `--check-alerts` | flag | No | — | Check for upcoming expirations |
| `--alert-days` | integer | No | 30 | Days before expiry to alert |
## Alert Levels
- 🔴 Expired — reagent past expiry date
- 🟠 Critical — expiring within 30 days
- 🟡 Warning — expiring within 60 days
- 🟢 OK — expiring beyond 60 days
## Output
- Expiration alert report with alert level per reagent
- Inventory summary
- Reorder recommendations for critical/expired items
## Stress-Case Rules
For complex multi-constraint requests, always include these explicit blocks:
1. Assumptions
2. Reagents Checked
3. Alert Report
4. Reorder Recommendations
5. Risks and Manual Checks
## Error Handling
- If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
- If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
- If `scripts/main.py` fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
- Do not fabricate expiry dates, inventory counts, or reorder thresholds.
## Input Validation
This skill accepts: reagent barcode/ID and expiry date for logging, or a check-alerts request for inventory review.
If the request does not involve reagent expiry tracking — for example, asking for chemical hazard assessment, waste disposal guidance, or controlled substance management — do not proceed with the workflow. Instead respond:
> "reagent-expiry-alert is designed to log reagent expiry dates and generate alerts before expiration. Your request appears to be outside this scope. Please provide a reagent ID and expiry date, or use a more appropriate tool."
## Response Template
Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:
1. Objective
2. Inputs Received
3. Assumptions
4. Workflow
5. Deliverable
6. Risks and Limits
7. Next Checks
If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.

## Issues Addressed
### P0 / Veto Fixes
- None (no veto failures)
### P1 Fixes
- **Past-date input not handled:** Added step 3 to workflow with explicit date validation. If `--expiry` is in the past, the skill now emits a warning stating the reagent is already expired and will be logged with an Expired alert status.
### P2 Fixes
- None beyond P1 fixes.
### QS-1 (Input Validation)
- Already present and well-formed.
### QS-2 (Progressive Disclosure)
