What it does

CI Evidence And Objects is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use to choose and read the objects a Critical Inquiry (CI) essay analyzes — texts, images, artworks, films, performances, events, or cases. In CI the "evidence" is not data but objects read closely through theory; this skill helps select objects that test and earn the intervention and handle images to journal standard. It guides selection and reading; it does not run statistics or build datasets.

Its SKILL.md is about 950 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 Data & Analytics, covering Statistics. 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

  • Choose and read the objects a Critical Inquiry (CI) essay analyzes — texts
  • Tasks that involve Statistics

Example prompts

  • “evidence”
  • “/ci-evidence-and-objects”

Workflow steps

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

  1. The object must test the claim. Pick cases that could in principle resist the argument, not
  2. Few and deep over many and thin. CI prizes close reading; one object read to the hilt beats a
  3. Right scale of object. Match the object to the claim — a single image for a claim about seeing;
  4. Interdisciplinary objects welcome. CI essays routinely cross media — a poem and a painting, a

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

CI Evidence And Objects loads about 949 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 106 tokens; SKILL.md has 419 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~106
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~949

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 419 words (~949 tokens).

“In Critical Inquiry there are no datasets — the evidence is objects read closely: literary and philosophical texts, paintings, photographs, films, buildings, performances, archival documents, political or historical cases. This skill helps you pick objects that actually test the intervention…”
