# STAR Methods (cell-star-methods)
## When to trigger
- The manuscript has a free-text Methods section (Cell requires STAR Methods).
- There is no **Key Resources Table**, or reagents lack identifiers/RRIDs/catalog numbers.
- The **Resource Availability** block is missing one of its three required subsections.
- Statistics are scattered in legends with no consolidated analysis section.
**STAR Methods = Structured, Transparent, Accessible Reporting.** It is a Cell Press signature and is **mandatory**. This is the single most important Cell-specific deliverable.
## Mandatory STAR Methods structure (exact order)
