Key Notes

This is the core skill for the deep research and writing tool—combining AI-driven deep research with well-formatted written outputs. Every document produced is backed by comprehensive literature search and verified citations through the research-lookup skill.
Scientific writing is a process for communicating research with precision and clarity. Write manuscripts using IMRAD structure, citations (APA/AMA/Vancouver), figures/tables, and reporting guidelines (CONSORT/STROBE/PRISMA). Apply this skill for research papers and journal submissions.
Critical Principle: Always write in full paragraphs with flowing prose. Never submit bullet points in the final manuscript. Use a two-stage process: first create section outlines with key points using research-lookup, then convert those outlines into complete paragraphs.
Writing or revising any section of a scientific manuscript (abstract, introduction, methods, results, discussion).
Structuring a research paper using IMRAD or other standard formats.

Visual Enhancement with Scientific Schematics

⚠️ MANDATORY: Every scientific paper MUST include a graphical abstract plus 1-2 additional AI-generated figures using the scientific-schematics skill.

This is not optional. Scientific papers without visual elements are incomplete. Before finalizing any document:

ALWAYS generate a graphical abstract as the first visual element
Generate at minimum ONE additional schematic or diagram using scientific-schematics
Prefer 3-4 total figures for comprehensive papers (graphical abstract + methods flowchart + results visualization + conceptual diagram)

Graphical Abstract (REQUIRED)

Every scientific writeup MUST include a graphical abstract. This is a visual summary of your paper that:

Appears before or immediately after the text abstract
Captures the entire paper's key message in one image
Is suitable for journal table of contents display
Uses landscape orientation (typically 1200x600px)

Generate the graphical abstract FIRST:

Graphical Abstract Requirements:

Content: Visual summary showing workflow, key methods, main findings, and conclusions
Style: Clean, professional, suitable for journal TOC
Elements: Include 3-5 key steps/concepts with connecting arrows or flow
Text: Minimal labels, large readable fonts
Log: [HH:MM:SS] GENERATED: Graphical abstract for paper summary
