What it does
Paper Plan is an agent skill from AI4Scientist/nano-scientist. Generate a structured paper outline from review conclusions and experiment results. Use when user says "写大纲", "paper outline", "plan the paper", "论文规划", or wants to create a paper plan before writing.
Its SKILL.md is about 3.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
The repository describes itself as: An autonomous research agent that turns a topic into a peer-reviewed technical report.
When your agent uses it
- Wants to create a paper plan before writing
Example prompts
- “paper outline”
- “plan the paper”
- “/paper-plan”
Requirements
- Python 3
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash(*), Read, Write, Edit, Grep, Glob, Agent, WebSearch, WebFetch, mcp__codex__codex, mcp__codex__codex-reply
Workflow steps
7 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Extract Claims and Evidence
- Determine Paper Type and Structure
- Section-by-Section Planning
- Figure Plan
- Citation Scaffolding
- Cross-Review with REVIEWER_MODEL
- Output
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7132192. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
Bash(*)ReadWriteEditGrepGlobAgentWebSearchWebFetchmcp__codex__codex
…and 1 more on the same allowed-tools line.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
python3
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
github.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Paper Plan loads about 3.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 53 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,115 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
