Script Directory

Agent execution instructions:

1. Determine this SKILL.md file's directory path as SKILL_DIR.
2. Sub-skill path = ${SKILL_DIR}/<sub-skill>/SKILL.md.
3. Shared reference path = ${SKILL_DIR}/references/<ref-name>.

Shared References

All drafting sub-skills inherit these:

• references/apa_style_guide.md — numbers, statistics, notation, punctuation, formulas
• references/table_formatting.md — APA 7th table structure and examples
• references/appendix_template.md — shared appendix structure for methods and results

Sub-Skills

Core Writing Principles

All drafting sub-skills follow these standards:

• Narrative prose; no bullet points, em-dashes, or standalone introductory paragraphs
• Prefer 3-12 sentence paragraphs; merge pre-table intros into the post-table narrative
• No unnecessary bold or italic emphasis in running text
• Follow ../references/apa_style_guide.md for APA formatting, numbers, notation, and formulas
• Use appendices for technical details; placeholders for pending information
• Cross-section coordination: compress in the intro what the lit review elaborates; each section does distinct work
