What it does

Review R is an agent skill from maxwell2732/paper-replicate-agent-demo. Run the R code review protocol on R scripts. Checks code quality, reproducibility, domain correctness, and professional standards. Produces a report without editing files.

Its SKILL.md is about 320 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development, covering Reproducible research and Code quality. The repository describes itself as: A structured Claude Code workflow for empirically replicating published research using UK Biobank (UKB) data, created by Chen Zhu 朱晨 | 遗传社科研究.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Reproducible research
  • Tasks that involve Code quality

Example prompts

  • “/review-r”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Grep, Glob, Write, Task

Workflow steps

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

  1. Identify scripts to review
  2. For each script, launch the r-reviewer agent with instructions to
  3. After all reviews complete, present a summary
  4. IMPORTANT: Do NOT edit any R source files.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 83399e0. 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:

    • Read
    • Grep
    • Glob
    • Write
    • Task

    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

Review R loads about 315 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 45 tokens; SKILL.md has 121 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~45
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~315

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 121 words (~315 tokens).
