Use when deciding which ngeo-* sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing manuscript work from scope-fit through revision for a Nature Geoscience (Nat. Geosci.) manuscript. Routes — does not replace — the specialized skills.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.

# Nature Geoscience Workflow (ngeo-workflow) ## Overview This is the router. It does not do any one stage's work; it tells you **which ngeo-* skill to use at your current stage** and in what order. Default assumption: unless the user says otherwise, the target is **Nature Geoscience** — a Nature Portfolio flagship that publishes Earth-system advances of broad, cross-disciplinary interest across the solid Earth, atmosphere, oceans, cryosphere, climate, and planetary science. The winning manuscript is not the most thorough regional case study; it is the one whose quantitative result changes how the wider Earth-science community understands a process. If the work is a solid but locally-scoped or specialist advance, its home is a community journal (JGR, GRL, Climate of the Past, EGU/AGU titles, or *Nature Communications* / *Communications Earth & Environment*), and `ngeo-scope-fit` will say so. ## When to trigger - User asks "what should I do next?" on an Earth-science manuscript - User drops a draft and needs the current bottleneck diagnosed - User is unsure whether the result is "Nature Geoscience-worthy" or belongs in a community journal - The Article is over the 3,000-word limit an

What does the ngeo-workflow skill do?
Use when deciding which ngeo-* sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing manuscript work from scope-fit through revision for a Nature Geoscience (Nat. Geosci.) manuscript. Routes — does not replace — the specialized skills.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill ngeo-workflow --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.
