Three Ways to Use It, Choose According to the Tool You Use

Open PROMPTS.md, and this file contains all the following categories of prompts, arranged according to the research process from topic selection to review response. Use Ctrl+F / Cmd+F to search for keywords, or click the directory in the file to jump to the directory you want to find and copy and paste the entire paragraph you want to use into ChatGPT / Gemini / DeepSeek / claude.ai web version… Any dialog box can be used, no need to install anything.

Coverage: topic selection, literature speed reading cards, Related Work tables, Introduction structure, translation, abbreviation expansion, Chinese and English polishing, logic checking, AI de-analysis, image addition, drawing recommendations, consistency self-check, reviewer perspective review, model selection, submission, defense, review replies A/B/C/D templates, Reviewer Toolbox (identifying AI-generated traces/data falsification signals/PDF hidden commands), and field-specific adaptation (bioinformatics/CV/materials/physics/chemistry/humanities and social sciences).
