What it does

Draft, audit, or minimally revise English- or Chinese-language academic prose to reduce formulaic, vacuous, mechanically repetitive, or process-leaking language while preserving claims, evidence strength, logical relations, manuscript-wide terminology identity, document-level pattern variation, and scholarly register. Use for papers, abstracts, grants, cover letters, and reviewer responses when the user asks to de-AI, humanize, audit AI-like phrasing, or rewrite text without changing meaning. English is primary; Chinese is supported. Not for detector evasion, policy circumvention, pure translation, non-academic copy, or adding facts, citations, examples, or author experiences that the source does not contain.

Academic Humanizer

Improve academic prose by removing observable writing defects, not by imitating imperfection or optimizing an authorship detector. Preserve the author's facts, argument, uncertainty, and disciplinary voice. This skill does not guarantee how any reader or detector will classify a text.

Portability

This skill is agent-agnostic. Its core behavior is defined by SKILL.md and references/; Python is optional and supports reproducible diagnostics.

  • Resolve <skill-dir> from the directory containing this SKILL.md.
  • Let <python> mean an available Python 3 launcher, such as python3, py -3, or python.
  • Let <input-file> mean a user-authorized local text file. Quote paths that contain spaces and use the host shell's path separator.
  • Do not assume a fixed skill root, home directory, shell, operating system, agent name, or path separator.
  • agents/openai.yaml is optional interface metadata. Core behavior does not depend on a particular agent runtime.
  • If Python is unavailable, skip the scripts and apply the same contracts directly.
