nature-shared — Claude skill: shared Nature references

A support package for the Nature Skills set. It holds shared definitions and journal formats that other skills load on demand, and never runs on its own.

What nature-shared does

nature-shared is a dependency, not a workflow. It ships with the Nature Skills collection and serves files when another skill asks for them: core/ for shared definitions, journal-formats/ for journal requirements. You do not invoke it yourself.

Inside are separate reference files. journal-formats/nature.md covers the flagship journal, while journal-formats/nature-machine-intelligence.md handles NMI article types, limits and initial-submission files. The core/ folder holds material on Results and Discussion structure, argument language, introductions, abstracts and main-text discipline. Each file loads individually, so the whole package never gets pulled in at once.

Install it if you already use nature-writing, nature-polishing, nature-response, nature-reader or nature-paper2ppt — they need these definitions to work. On its own it does nothing useful. Some files are derived from a corpus of published papers rather than official journal policy, so check the conclusions before you submit a manuscript.

What it helps with

  • pull Nature manuscript requirements from one place
  • check article types and limits for Nature Machine Intelligence
  • split results between main text and supplementary information
  • sequence the argument in a Discussion section
  • compress an abstract around the main finding

Example prompts for the agent

  • Load core/nature-abstract.md and review my abstract
  • I need the journal-formats/nature-machine-intelligence.md rules for initial submission
  • Help me allocate results between main text and SI using core/main-text-discipline.md

Questions about nature-shared

How do I install nature-shared in Claude?

Run npx skills add Yuan1z0825/nature-skills --skill nature-shared -a claude-code. The skill file then sits at ~/.claude/skills/nature-shared/SKILL.md.

What does nature-shared do?

It stores shared references for the other Nature skills: definitions in core/ and journal formats in journal-formats/. It returns only the file another skill requests.

Can I invoke nature-shared on its own?

No. It is a dependency meant to run inside nature-writing, nature-polishing, nature-response, nature-reader and nature-paper2ppt.

description: Internal shared-reference support package for installed Nature Skills, including nature-writing, nature-polishing, nature-response, nature-reader, and nature-paper2ppt. Do not invoke it as a standalone user workflow. Load only the specific core or journal-format file requested by another Nature skill.

# Nature Shared References

Use this package only as a dependency of another installed Nature skill.

- Load the exact referenced file; do not preload the whole package.
- Treat `core/` and `journal-formats/` as shared definitions, not standalone workflows.
- Use `journal-formats/nature.md` only for the flagship journal Nature and
  `core/research-compliance.md` only when its specialist applicability gate is
  triggered.
- Use `journal-formats/nature-machine-intelligence.md` for exact NMI article
  types, limits, initial-submission files, data/code duties and production
  requirements; do not import flagship Nature or Nature Communications limits.
- Use `core/main-text-discipline.md` for result placement, main-text compression,
  revision accretion, caption/SI allocation, and claim-repetition checks.
- Use `core/nature-results-discussion.md` for corpus-derived Nature-style
  Results claim escalation, evidence-bound local interpretation, and Discussion
  synthesis; do not present it as official journal policy.
- Use `core/discussion-argument-language.md` for journal-general Discussion
  function sequencing, reverse-funnel control, evidence-calibrated modality,
  claim-specific limitations, and uncertainty-driven future work.
- Use `core/nature-introduction.md` for corpus-derived Nature-style problem
  funnels, exact knowledge gaps, literature tension, question-first novelty,
  and Introduction–Results alignment; do not present it as official journal
  policy.
- Use `core/nature-abstract.md` for corpus-derived Nature-style
  discovery-centred abstract compression, claim hierarchy, selective numeric
  support, and field-level payoff; do not present it as official journal policy.
- Return to the requesting skill for task logic, output format, and final QA.
