This repo contains 20 individual skills — each has its own dedicated page.
Comprehensive citation management for academic research. Search Google Scholar and PubMed for papers, extract accurate metadata, validate citations, and generate properly formatted BibTeX entries. This skill should be used when you need to find papers, verify citation information, convert DOIs to BibTeX, or ensure reference accuracy in scientific writing.
Analyze Excel spreadsheets, create pivot tables, generate charts, and perform data analysis. Use when analyzing Excel files, spreadsheets, tabular data, or .xlsx files.
Perform comprehensive exploratory data analysis on scientific data files across 200+ file formats. This skill should be used when analyzing any scientific data file to understand its structure, content, quality, and characteristics. Automatically detects file type and generates detailed markdown reports with format-specific analysis, quality metrics, and downstream analysis recommendations. Covers chemistry, bioinformatics, microscopy, spectroscopy, proteomics, metabolomics, and general scientific data formats.
Generate or edit images using AI models (FLUX, Gemini). Use for general-purpose image generation including photos, illustrations, artwork, visual assets, concept art, and any image that isn't a technical diagram or schematic. For flowcharts, circuits, pathways, and technical diagrams, use the scientific-schematics skill instead.
Use when the user mentions Jira issues (e.g., "PROJ-123"), asks about tickets, wants to create/view/update issues, check sprint status, or manage their Jira workflow. Triggers on keywords like "jira", "issue", "ticket", "sprint", "backlog", or issue key patterns.
Conduct comprehensive, systematic literature reviews using multiple academic databases (PubMed, arXiv, bioRxiv, Semantic Scholar, etc.). This skill should be used when conducting systematic literature reviews, meta-analyses, research synthesis, or comprehensive literature searches across biomedical, scientific, and technical domains. Creates professionally formatted markdown documents and PDFs with verified citations in multiple citation styles (APA, Nature, Vancouver, etc.).
Product marketing, positioning, GTM strategy, and competitive intelligence. Includes ICP definition, April Dunford positioning methodology, launch playbooks, competitive battlecards, and international market entry guides. Use when developing positioning, planning product launches, creating messaging, analyzing competitors, entering new markets, enabling sales, or when user mentions product marketing, positioning, GTM, go-to-market, competitive analysis, market entry, or sales enablement.
Generate comprehensive market research reports (50+ pages) in the style of top consulting firms (McKinsey, BCG, Gartner). Features professional LaTeX formatting, extensive visual generation with scientific-schematics and generate-image, deep integration with research-lookup for data gathering, and multi-framework strategic analysis including Porter's Five Forces, PESTLE, SWOT, TAM/SAM/SOM, and BCG Matrix.
Mermaid diagram specialist for creating flowcharts, sequence diagrams, ERDs, and architecture visualizations
Mobile-first design thinking and decision-making for iOS and Android apps. Touch interaction, performance patterns, platform conventions. Teaches principles, not fixed values. Use when building React Native, Flutter, or native mobile apps.
Expert in designing effective prompts for LLM-powered applications. Masters prompt structure, context management, output formatting, and prompt evaluation. Use when: prompt engineering, system prompt, few-shot, chain of thought, prompt design.
Best practices and comprehensive guide for Remotion - programmatic video creation in React with animations, compositions, and media handling
Build slide decks and presentations for research talks. Use this for making PowerPoint slides, conference presentations, seminar talks, research presentations, thesis defense slides, or any scientific talk. Provides slide structure, design templates, timing guidance, and visual validation. Works with PowerPoint and LaTeX Beamer.
Create publication figures with matplotlib/seaborn/plotly. Multi-panel layouts, error bars, significance markers, colorblind-safe, export PDF/EPS/TIFF, for journal-ready scientific plots.
Core skill for the deep research and writing tool. Write scientific manuscripts in full paragraphs (never bullet points). Use two-stage process: (1) create section outlines with key points using research-lookup, (2) convert to flowing prose. IMRAD structure, citations (APA/AMA/Vancouver), figures/tables, reporting guidelines (CONSORT/STROBE/PRISMA), for research papers and journal submissions.
Comprehensive backend development skill for building scalable backend systems using NodeJS, Express, Go, Python, Postgres, GraphQL, REST APIs. Includes API scaffolding, database optimization, security implementation, and performance tuning. Use when designing APIs, optimizing database queries, implementing business logic, handling authentication/authorization, or reviewing backend code.
World-class data engineering skill for building scalable data pipelines, ETL/ELT systems, and data infrastructure. Expertise in Python, SQL, Spark, Airflow, dbt, Kafka, and modern data stack. Includes data modeling, pipeline orchestration, data quality, and DataOps. Use when designing data architectures, building data pipelines, optimizing data workflows, or implementing data governance.
World-class data science skill for statistical modeling, experimentation, causal inference, and advanced analytics. Expertise in Python (NumPy, Pandas, Scikit-learn), R, SQL, statistical methods, A/B testing, time series, and business intelligence. Includes experiment design, feature engineering, model evaluation, and stakeholder communication. Use when designing experiments, building predictive models, performing causal analysis, or driving data-driven decisions.
Comprehensive DevOps skill for CI/CD, infrastructure automation, containerization, and cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure). Includes pipeline setup, infrastructure as code, deployment automation, and monitoring. Use when setting up pipelines, deploying applications, managing infrastructure, implementing monitoring, or optimizing deployment processes.

Generate cohesive, project-specific SVG icon sets for websites and applications. Use this skill whenever the user needs custom icons, an icon set for a website or app, icons for a client project, or mentions needing SVG icons that look consistent together. Also trigger when the user describes a project and icons would naturally be part of the deliverable — e.g. 'I'm building a site for a plumber' implies they'll need service icons. Trigger on: 'icons for', 'icon set', 'custom icons', 'SVG icons', 'make me icons', 'I need icons', 'website icons', 'project icons', or any request for consistent visual assets for a web project. Produces individual SVG files with a consistent style engine, not generic icon library lookups.
