  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Est Workflow is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use as the entry point for any Environmental Science & Technology (ES&T) manuscript. Routes to the right ES&T sub-skill based on where you are in the lifecycle and which article type (Research Article, Critical Review, Feature, Perspective, Policy Analysis, or the rapid companion ES&T Letters) fits. It dispatches; it does not draft content.

Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Comprehensive collection of Claude Code skills for academic research in economics, finance, and social sciences.

Example prompts

  • “/est-workflow”

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

Est Workflow loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 89 tokens; SKILL.md has 294 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~89
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k

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 294 words (~1,001 tokens).

“The orchestrator for an ES&T submission. Figure out the stage and the article type, then send the user to the matching skill. ES&T is a multidisciplinary environmental science and engineering journal — the router's first job is to make sure…”
