  • Positioning a Contemporary Accounting Research (CAR) manuscript within the accounting literature — identifying the conversation it joins
  • SKILL.md covers When to trigger, Join an accounting…, Distinguish from the nearest… and Disclose overlap with your own…, plus 3 more sections

What it does

Car Literature Positioning is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use when positioning a Contemporary Accounting Research (CAR) manuscript within the accounting literature — identifying the conversation it joins, distinguishing it from closely related accounting/finance/economics work, and disclosing overlap with the authors' own related papers as CAR's author declaration requires.

Its SKILL.md is about 920 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 Business, Finance & HR, covering Accounting and bookkeeping and Positioning and messaging. The repository describes itself as: Comprehensive collection of Claude Code skills for academic research in economics, finance, and social sciences.

When your agent uses it

  • Positioning a Contemporary Accounting Research (CAR) manuscript within the accounting literature — identifying the conversation it joins
  • Distinguishing it from closely related accounting/finance/economics work
  • Disclosing overlap with the authors own related papers as CARs author declaration requires

Example prompts

  • “own related papers as CAR”
  • “/car-literature-positioning”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9a4b2db. 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

Car Literature Positioning loads about 915 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 86 tokens; SKILL.md has 411 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~86
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~915

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 411 words (~915 tokens).

“CAR papers earn their place by advancing a live accounting conversation — for example, on disclosure and information asymmetry, earnings quality and the properties of accounting numbers, auditor judgment and audit quality, the real effects of reporting, tax avoidance and…”
