What it does

Cnki Journal Toc is an agent skill from cookjohn/cnki-skills. Browse journal issues, view table of contents, and download original TOC PDF from CNKI. Use when user wants to see papers in a specific journal issue or download the original cover/TOC pages.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k 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 Documents & Office, covering PDF. It works with Model Context Protocol and Chrome DevTools. The repository describes itself as: CNKI (中国知网) skills for Claude Code — search, browse journals, download PDFs, export to Zotero via Chrome DevTools MCP.

When your agent uses it

  • User wants to see papers in a specific journal issue
  • Download the original cover/TOC pages

Example prompts

  • “/cnki-journal-toc”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Navigate to journal detail page
  2. Select issue + extract papers (single async evaluate_script)
  3. Present results
  4. Download original TOC PDF (if requested)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 20d65f6. 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 (its code samples are javascript).

    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

Cnki Journal Toc loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 52 tokens; SKILL.md has 476 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~52
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.5k

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 476 words (~1,516 tokens).

“Browse journal issues, extract the paper list, and optionally open/download the original TOC PDF (封面+目录扫描版).”
