What it does

This is a set of skills for working with academic papers. It analyzes a paper on the merits, extracts the method and results, and prepares visual materials: method figures, slides and an extended write-up. The user provides a PDF or a link, and the skills produce ready artifacts for reading, a talk or a review. The skills install with one installer command and work across several agents.

Who it is for. For researchers, teachers and analysts who need to quickly digest and present a paper.

Good fit when

  • You need a deep analysis of a paper's method and results
  • You need slides or figures for a scientific work
  • You need a coherent write-up of a paper for a review

Not a fit when

  • You need fact-checking or experiment reproduction rather than text analysis
  • The material is not a paper but an arbitrary document

Example request

Analyze this paper and make slides on its method and results

Limitations

The skills analyze and present a paper's content but do not verify experiment correctness or replace expert judgment. Analysis quality depends on the agent's model. Some materials and examples are in English and Chinese.

How to disable. Remove the skills via npx skills remove or delete their folders from the agent's skills directory.
