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.

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add dongshuyan/compass-skills --skill academic-humanizer --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From dongshuyan/compass-skills, a repository with 675 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
