A practical Codex Skills package for Academic Research, Papers and Scientific Figures. It provides a structured, reusable workflow based on the actual instructions and resources included in the package.
Quick Fit
Use this when: you want Codex to handle the Academic Paper and Research Charts workflow with a repeatable set of instructions instead of rebuilding the prompt from scratch each time.
- Literature reviews
- theses
- scientific reports
Best input: Start with a research question and source requirements, search and shortlist papers, retrieve legally available texts, organize citations in Zotero, analyze equations or evidence, then create and verify figures for the target journal, report, or presentation.
Expected output: Includes 12 research Skills: search across arXiv, PubMed, Crossref, Google Scholar, Semantic Scholar, and other sources; download and read papers and arXiv LaTeX; inspect formulas, figures, citations, authors, and citation graphs; sync Zotero metadata; solve symbolic mathematics with SymPy; create scientific schematics and publication-quality charts with appropriate layouts, error bars, significance markers, accessible colors, and journal export formats.
Not for: fully automated decisions, unauthorized systems or data, regulated professional advice, or outputs used without human review.
