Nature Reviewer Response Skill

Nature审稿意见回复技能

Use this skill to convert editor decision letters, reviewer comments, author notes, or draft rebuttals into an auditable point-by-point response package for manuscript revisions.
The response letter is an editor-facing verification document. The goal is to show that every reviewer concern has been understood, addressed, and mapped to a concrete manuscript change, justified scientific response, or unresolved author action.
使用本技能可将编辑决定信、审稿意见、作者笔记或反驳草稿转化为可审核的稿件修订逐点回复包。
回复信是面向编辑的验证文档,目标是展示已理解并回应每一条审稿人关切,且对应到具体的稿件修改、合理的科学回应或未解决的作者待办事项。

Default stance

默认原则

  • Preserve each reviewer comment faithfully before responding.
  • Every reviewer concern must be answered, cross-referenced, or explicitly marked as unresolved.
  • Map every response to manuscript evidence, a revision location, a justified disagreement, or
    AUTHOR_INPUT_NEEDED
    .
  • Do not invent experiments, analyses, citations, line numbers, figure panels, supplementary materials, editor instructions, reviewer identities, or manuscript changes.
  • Prefer concise, evidence-linked replies over long defensive explanations.
  • When disagreeing, acknowledge the concern first, then give a scientific or scope-based reason.
  • When a reviewer misunderstood the manuscript, first consider whether the manuscript presentation caused the misunderstanding.
  • Treat rebuttal letters as potentially public review artifacts; write with professional tone and traceability.
  • 忠实保留每条审稿意见后再进行回应。
  • 每一条审稿人关切都必须得到答复、交叉引用或明确标记为未解决。
  • 将每一项回应对应到稿件证据、修订位置、合理的不同意见或
    AUTHOR_INPUT_NEEDED
  • 不得虚构实验、分析、引用、行号、图版、补充材料、编辑指示、审稿人身份或稿件修改内容。
  • 优先选择简洁、关联证据的回复,而非冗长的辩解性说明。
  • 当存在不同意见时,先认可关切点,再给出基于科学或研究范围的理由。
  • 当审稿人误解稿件内容时,首先考虑是否是稿件表述导致了该误解。
  • 将反驳信视为可能公开的评审文件;撰写时保持专业语气并确保可追溯性。

Workflow

工作流程

  1. Identify task mode and input readiness:
    draft
    ,
    audit
    ,
    revise
    ,
    triage-only
    , or
    appeal-like
    .
  2. Identify decision type: minor revision, major revision, revise-and-resubmit, transfer after review, or unclear.
  3. Extract editor instructions first and assign IDs such as
    E.1
    , then split reviewer comments with IDs such as
    R1.1
    ,
    R1.2
    , and
    R2.1
    .
  4. Classify each item by category, severity, action label, missing input, readiness state, and risk.
  5. Create a response strategy summary before drafting prose.
  6. Draft responses using preserved reviewer comments unless the mode is
    triage-only
    or
    appeal-like
    .
  7. Map each claimed change to manuscript location, figure, table, supplement, citation, or explicit placeholder.
  8. Flag missing author input rather than fabricating details.
  9. Run QA for completeness, traceability, factuality, tone, and unresolved risk.
  10. Return the response package with package readiness:
    ready_to_submit
    ,
    draft_with_placeholders
    ,
    needs_author_input
    , or
    blocked
    .
  1. 识别任务模式和输入就绪状态:
    draft
    (撰写)、
    audit
    (审核)、
    revise
    (修改)、
    triage-only
    (仅分类)或
    appeal-like
    (类似申诉)。
  2. 识别决定类型:小修、大修、修改后重投、评审后转刊或不明确。
  3. 先提取编辑指示并分配ID,如
    E.1
    ,再拆分审稿意见并分配ID,如
    R1.1
    R1.2
    R2.1
  4. 按类别、严重程度、行动标签、缺失输入、就绪状态和风险对每一项进行分类。
  5. 在撰写正文前创建回复策略摘要。
  6. 保留审稿意见原文进行回复撰写,除非任务模式为
    triage-only
    appeal-like
  7. 将每一项声称的修改对应到稿件位置、图表、表格、补充材料、引用或明确的占位符。
  8. 标记缺失的作者输入,而非编造细节。
  9. 针对完整性、可追溯性、真实性、语气和未解决风险进行QA检查。
  10. 返回回复包,并标注包就绪状态:
    ready_to_submit
    (可提交)、
    draft_with_placeholders
    (带占位符的草稿)、
    needs_author_input
    (需作者输入)或
    blocked
    (受阻)。
