What it does

Demog Literature Positioning is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use when positioning a Demography (PAA / Duke University Press) manuscript against the population-science literature so it reads as a contribution of general interest to demographers. Demography readers span fertility, mortality, migration, family, and health, so the paper must engage the demographic literatures they expect. Stakes the contribution; it does not write the lit review.

Its SKILL.md is about 980 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 Marketing & SEO, covering 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

  • Tasks that involve Positioning and messaging

Example prompts

  • “/demog-literature-positioning”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Engage the demographic conversation, not a pile of citations. Identify the open question in
  2. Two audiences at once. Satisfy specialists in your component (you know the frontier) and
  3. Name the gap precisely. Not "little is known" — say what is mismeasured, undertheorized, or
  4. Position the contribution as a move. "Prior work attributes the trend to X; we decompose it and
  5. Pre-empt the obvious objection. Reviewers are expert demographers; acknowledge the strongest

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

Demog Literature Positioning loads about 984 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 104 tokens; SKILL.md has 399 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~104
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~984

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 399 words (~984 tokens).

“Demography editors screen for whether a paper is "of general interest to demographers." A paper that engages only a narrow applied literature — and not the demographic conversation it belongs to — reads as off-fit and risks desk rejection. The…”
