Humanize Skill

This skill only removes AI patterns; it does not perform general copy-editing, evaluate scientific quality, check journal formatting, or translate.

Read ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/ai_patterns.md at the start of every session, before scanning: the definitions, watch words, examples, detection greps, per-pattern fixes and the section-by-section priorities for all 27 patterns live only there.

Workflow

Phase 1: Scan

Scan the section(s) the user provides for all 27 patterns. For response-to-reviewers letters and cover letters, prioritise Patterns 22-24. For a full manuscript, follow the per-section priorities in ai_patterns.md (Section-Specific Application Guide). For each pattern found, record its number and name, the count, the exact passage, and its location (paragraph number or line range).
