- 25 days oldThe repository was created 25 days ago. New is not bad, but a brand new repository carrying a familiar-sounding name is the shape a typosquat arrives in, and there has been no time for anyone else to find a problem with it.
- 17 stars17 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.
What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
Author-guideline skill for multidisciplinary and cross-discipline journals that food & nutrition researchers publish in but which sit outside the food/nutrition JCR categories: eLife, PLOS Biology, PLOS Medicine, National Science Review, The Innovation, Environmental Science & Technology (food safety/contaminants), Gut and Gastroenterology (nutrition/GI), Diabetes Care (clinical nutrition), and The ISME Journal (food/gut microbial ecology). Use to format or check a manuscript for one of these — with the journal's publisher, reference style, and source URL. Triggers: submit to eLife, PLOS, National Science Review, Environmental Science & Technology, Gut, Gastroenterology, Diabetes Care, ISME Journal guidelines. Also fires when the user wants to publish on/in this journal, format a manuscript for it, or match its reference/citation style.

*Best-known default; confirm at the source. Most of these use numbered (Vancouver-style) references; ES&T uses ACS style.
Common requirements
- Standard IMRaD (clinical titles may want structured abstracts + trial
registration + CONSORT/STROBE; see
../../food-research/references/reporting-guidelines.md). - Mandatory declarations: competing interests, funding, author contributions, data availability; ethics for human/animal work.
- Figures ≥300 dpi; editable tables; cite display items in order.
- Reference style: use the per-journal style in the table; if unsure, default to numbered (Vancouver) and flag for confirmation.
