# Reporting Guidelines & Flow Diagrams (lancet-reporting) ## When to trigger - The study type is settled and you need the matching reporting checklist. - There is no participant flow diagram (CONSORT/PRISMA) in the manuscript. - A reviewer or editor asks for a completed reporting checklist with page/line references. - The manuscript mixes endpoints/numbers that the flow diagram should reconcile. #

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill lancet-reporting --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 brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
