At a glance

A skill your agent uses when the user provides program code, scripts, or variable lists and wants a Word .docx correspondence table mapping code variables to paper-ready mathematical notation.

  • Works in 5 steps: Code variable → Paper symbol → Meaning → …
  • The user provides program code
  • SKILL.md covers Required Output, Workflow, Script Usage and References
  • Runs Python scripts from its folder; calls python

What it does

Code To Notation Table is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use when the user provides program code, scripts, or variable lists and wants a Word .docx correspondence table mapping code variables to paper-ready mathematical notation. The output must be a reusable notation dictionary with editable Word equation objects in the paper-symbol column, not plain LaTeX text, screenshots, or manuscript prose.

Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 6 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `references/symbol_conventions.md` and `scripts/make_notation_docx.py`).

It sits in Documents & Office, covering Word documents and LaTeX. It works with Microsoft Word and LaTeX. 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

  • The user provides program code
  • Variable lists and wants a Word .docx correspondence table mapping code variables to paper-ready mathematical notation

Example prompts

  • “/code-to-notation-table”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

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

  1. Code variable
  2. Paper symbol
  3. Meaning
  4. Category
  5. Notes

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

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python

    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

Code To Notation Table loads about 1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 91 tokens; SKILL.md has 417 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~91
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.6k

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 417 words (~1,038 tokens).

“Create a Word .docx notation dictionary that maps program variables to publication-style symbols. This skill does not write the manuscript. Its job is to produce the authoritative table that later manuscript writing must follow.”
