From prl-skills
Partitions content between a PRL Letter body and Supplemental Material, ensuring the Letter stands alone while derivations and extended data live in the SM

/prl-skills:prl-supplementaryThe summary Claude sees in its skill listing — used to decide when to auto-load this skill
- The Letter is over length and detail must move out of the body
The Letter must be fully understandable on its own. The Supplemental Material supports the Letter; it must never be load-bearing for the central claim. A reader who never opens the SM should still grasp the result, the evidence for it, and why it matters.
If removing the SM breaks the argument, the partition is wrong — pull the essential piece back into the Letter (and trim elsewhere via prl-length-management).
| Content | Home |
|---|---|
| Full derivations / lengthy algebra | SM |
| Extended datasets, additional samples, full sweeps | SM |
| Detailed apparatus, growth, calibration | SM |
| Secondary controls and robustness checks | SM |
| Full error budget / systematics breakdown | SM |
| Numerical convergence studies | SM |
| Additional figures / movies / large tables | SM |
| The central claim and its decisive evidence | Letter |
| The one control ruling out the obvious artifact | Letter |
| The headline uncertainty | Letter |
【Letter stands alone】yes / fix (pull back: ...)
【SM sections】S1: ... / S2: ... (cited from body?)
【Central evidence only in SM?】none / move back: ...
【SM figure/table labels】S-prefixed? yes / fix
【Notation consistent Letter↔SM】yes / fix
【Next】prl-writing-style or prl-length-management
SM scope, citation counting, and file-format rules evolve — verify on the official APS / PRL author page.
npx claudepluginhub brycewang-stanford/awesome-journal-skills --plugin prl-skillsDecides what methodological detail stays in a Physical Review Letters body versus Supplemental Material, following the trust-minimum principle for physicists.
Organizes supplementary material for RFS manuscripts: decides what goes in the Internet Appendix vs. main paper, and how to structure it. Does not generate robustness content.
Guides placement of technical/auxiliary results, long computations, and machine-assisted proofs into appendices or main text for Annals of Mathematics manuscripts.
