What it does

Aeon Paper Pick is an agent skill from BankrBot/skills. Surface the one AI / ML paper to read today from Hugging Face Papers, with the central claim, why it's worth an hour, where it might be wrong, and a time-budgeted read order. Filters out pure benchmark-chasing and incremental scaling reports. Use as a daily morning brief input for AI-savvy operators. Triggers: "one paper to read today", "best AI paper today", "what's the must-read paper", "HF Papers top pick".

Its SKILL.md is about 560 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `catalog.json`).

It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering Model hubs and datasets and Scientific writing. It works with Hugging Face. The repository describes itself as: Bankr Skills equip builders with plug-and-play tools to build more powerful agents.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Model hubs and datasets
  • Tasks that involve Scientific writing

Example prompts

  • “one paper to read today”
  • “best AI paper today”
  • “s the must-read paper”
  • “/aeon-paper-pick”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Fetch last 24h of HF Papers (https://huggingface.co/papers).
  2. Drop pure benchmark-chasing (new SOTA on existing leaderboard, no method change), incremental scaling reports, and position papers without…
  3. Score survivors on novelty of method/framing, falsifiability of central claim, reproducibility signal (code + weights + data), and…
  4. Pick the highest scoring. Tie-break: sharper falsifiable claim.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit dc47eed. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • huggingface.co

    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

Aeon Paper Pick loads about 557 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 107 tokens; SKILL.md has 142 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~107
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~557

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.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 142 words (~557 tokens).

“One paper per day. Not a digest — one pick, with a short brief that lets the reader decide whether to invest the next hour.”
