At a glance
Reads an academic paper from a PDF, pasted text or abstract and offers five outputs: an analysis report, a mind map, a peer review, promotion scripts and a podcast.
- Getting a structured reading of a paper you have just uploaded
- SKILL.md covers 第一步：前置检查, 第二步：理解论文, 第三步：展示菜单，询问用户 and 第四步：执行对应模块
- Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
- Drafting a peer review in a standard Summary and Strengths layout
What it does
The agent first checks that a paper was supplied and otherwise asks you to upload the PDF or paste the content. It then reads a shared extraction framework, `shared/paper_core.md`, and quietly builds an internal summary of the paper without showing the process. Missing fields are handled by rule: an unknown title is labeled unknown, the year bracket is dropped, a missing one-line summary is written by the agent, and anything else becomes null and is reported as not mentioned in the paper, with no invented content.
A fixed menu then offers five modules, each kept in its own file under `modules/`: a deep analysis of methods, experiments and contributions, a Mermaid mind map or flowchart, a review in Summary, Strengths, Weaknesses and Questions form, promotional text for social posts, an official-account style summary and a talk introduction, and a podcast script, either one narrator or a two-person dialogue. Audio generation needs an edge-tts MCP connection, otherwise only the text script is produced. You can pick all of them or name one in plain words to skip the menu, and the paper is not re-read when you switch modules. The SKILL.md is written in Chinese.
When your agent uses it
- Getting a structured reading of a paper you have just uploaded
- Drafting a peer review in a standard Summary and Strengths layout
- Turning a paper into a mind map or a podcast script
- Writing social media promotion for your own paper
Example prompts
- “Here is a paper PDF, give me a deep analysis report.”
- “Write a peer review of this paper with strengths, weaknesses and questions.”
- “Turn this abstract into a two-person podcast script.”
- “Make a mind map of the method section of this paper.”
Requirements
- The paper as a PDF, pasted text or abstract
- An edge-tts MCP connection for MP3 podcast audio (optional)
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 58b8dac. 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
Paper Glance loads about 433 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 38 tokens; SKILL.md has 110 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.
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.
