Revedres Workflow

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Deciding which revedres- sub-skill to invoke next
• Sequencing a systematic review
• Critical integrative synthesis from question-scoping through revision for a Review of Educational Research (RER) manuscript

Example prompts

• “/revedres-workflow”

Workflow steps

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

1. 1revedres-topic-selection — confirm the question is RER-scale (important, mature enough, needs synthesis)
2. 2revedres-proposal-and-commissioning — protocol + (where applicable) PROSPERO/PRISMA-P preregistration
3. 3revedres-literature-synthesis — systematic search, screening, PRISMA flow, data extraction
4. 4revedres-organizing-framework — impose the conceptual spine that advances theory/policy
5. 5revedres-comprehensiveness-and-balance — exhaustiveness, risk-of-bias, heterogeneity, sensitivity
6. 6revedres-tables-figures — PRISMA flow, forest/funnel plots, coding and evidence tables
7. 7revedres-writing-style — the synthesizing RER voice in APA 7 (abstract + intro last)
8. 8revedres-transparency-and-reproducibility — coding reliability, open data/code, MARS/PRISMA reporting
9. 9revedres-editor-strategy — scope negotiation and reviewer expectations
10. 10revedres-submission — Manuscript Central preflight (masking, APA 7, 150-word abstract)
11. 11revedres-revision — after the editor/reviewer letter

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 932eb23. 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

  No URLs in SKILL.md.

  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

Revedres Workflow loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 79 tokens; SKILL.md has 776 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~79

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~1.9k

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

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.

description

Use when deciding which revedres-* sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing a systematic review, meta-analysis, or critical integrative synthesis from question-scoping through revision for a Review of Educational Research (RER) manuscript. Routes — it does not replace — the specialized skills.
