Best use case
patent-drafting is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
Teams using patent-drafting should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# Patent Drafting — Intellectual Property Protection for Research ## Overview Draft patent applications for scientific inventions, covering claims, specification, and prior art analysis. ## Patent Application Structure ### 1. Title - Descriptive but not limiting - Include key technical terms ### 2. Abstract (150 words max) - Technical problem, solution, key advantage - Independent claim in prose form ### 3. Background / Field of Invention - Technical field - Prior art and its limitations - Problem to be solved ### 4. Summary of Invention - Brief description matching broadest claims - Key advantages over prior art ### 5. Detailed Description - Best mode of carrying out the invention - Enable a person skilled in the art to reproduce - Include examples and experimental data - Reference all figures ### 6. Claims - **Independent claims**: broadest protection - **Dependent claims**: specific embodiments - Method claims, composition claims, use claims - Means-plus-function for apparatus ### 7. Drawings / Figures - Flow diagrams, structural formulas, experimental results - Reference numerals consistent with description ## Prior Art Search Strategy 1. Patent databases: Google Patents, USPTO, WIPO, EPO, CNIPA 2. Scientific literature: PubMed, Google Scholar 3. Conference proceedings and theses 4. Product catalogs and technical documents ## Key Principles - **Enablement**: Specification must enable reproduction - **Novelty**: At least one element not in prior art - **Non-obviousness**: Combination/modification not obvious to skilled person - **Written description**: Inventor possessed the invention at filing date

COPYRIGHT NOTICE
patent-analysis
Conducts patent landscape analysis including prior art searches, patent claim interpretation, freedom-to-operate assessment, and intellectual property strategy for scientific inventions; trigger when users discuss patents, prior art, IP protection, or technology licensing.
xurl
A CLI tool for making authenticated requests to the X (Twitter) API. Use this skill when you need to post tweets, reply, quote, search, read posts, manage followers, send DMs, upload media, or interact with any X API v2 endpoint.
xlsx
Use this skill any time a spreadsheet file is the primary input or output. This means any task where the user wants to: open, read, edit, or fix an existing .xlsx, .xlsm, .csv, or .tsv file (e.g., adding columns, computing formulas, formatting, charting, cleaning messy data); create a new spreadsheet from scratch or from other data sources; or convert between tabular file formats. Trigger especially when the user references a spreadsheet file by name or path — even casually (like "the xlsx in my downloads") — and wants something done to it or produced from it. Also trigger for cleaning or restructuring messy tabular data files (malformed rows, misplaced headers, junk data) into proper spreadsheets. The deliverable must be a spreadsheet file. Do NOT trigger when the primary deliverable is a Word document, HTML report, standalone Python script, database pipeline, or Google Sheets API integration, even if tabular data is involved.
