SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Nature Portfolio writing, polishing, and review skills often need the same ethics rules, journal formatting facts, and manuscript-consistency guidance; this package centralizes those shared definitions so sibling skills load one authoritative copy instead of duplicating content. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Shared core references: Supplies ethics and AI-disclosure rules, paper-type taxonomy, terminology ledgers, consistency-sweep methodology, main-text discipline, and corpus-derived guidance for Nature-style abstracts, introductions, results, and discussions. - Journal format facts: Provides stage-aware submission requirements for flagship Nature, Nature Communications, and Nature Machine Intelligence, including word limits, display-item budgets, and data/code availability rules. - Mechanical consistency checker: Includes scripts/check_consistency.py, which flags terminology variants, equal numbers reported at different precisions, and equivalent lengths written in different units. - Use Case: When the nature-polishing skill audits a revised manuscript, it loads core/consistency-sweep.md from this package and runs the bundled checker to surface terminology drift before editing. ## Quick Start Ask your installed Nature skill to load the specific shared file it needs, such as the Nature Machine Intelligence formatting rules, from the nature-shared package.

FAQPage Schema
What is the nature-shared package used for?▼

nature-shared is a shared dependency package for installed Nature skills such as nature-writing and nature-polishing. It stores common reference files and a consistency-check script so sibling skills load one authoritative copy instead of duplicating content.

How do I check a manuscript for terminology and unit inconsistencies?▼

Run scripts/check_consistency.py on your manuscript files, optionally adding custom term groups with --term-group. It reports terminology variants, equal values at different precisions, and equivalent lengths in different units as warnings for manual review.

Can I use nature-shared as a standalone writing workflow?▼

No, nature-shared is explicitly not a standalone workflow. It is a support package whose files are loaded on demand by other Nature skills, which supply the task logic, output format, and final QA.

Does the package cover Nature Machine Intelligence submission rules?▼

Yes, journal-formats/nature-machine-intelligence.md contains stage-aware NMI rules including the 3,500-word main-text limit, six display items, data and code availability duties, and production requirements, verified against official pages.

Are the Nature writing guidelines in this package official journal policy?▼

No, files like nature-abstract.md and nature-introduction.md are corpus-derived writing guidance distilled from published papers, not official journal policy. Current target-journal instructions and the paper's actual evidence always take precedence.
