What it does

Mathfin Literature Positioning is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use when positioning a Mathematical Finance (Wiley) manuscript against the financial-mathematics frontier — stake the methodological contribution against prior stochastic-analysis, pricing, and control results, citing the precise theorem you sharpen, generalize, or supersede.

Its SKILL.md is about 700 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

  • Control results
  • Citing the precise theorem you sharpen

Example prompts

  • “/mathfin-literature-positioning”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Name the closest prior result and its assumptions precisely (model class, regularity,
  2. Locate your delta on one axis: weaker assumptions, broader model class, sharper rate,
  3. Cite landmark machinery, not laundry lists — the foundational tools you build on
  4. Pre-empt the "special case" objection: show your result is not a corollary of an
  5. Flag what you do NOT claim — keeping scope honest is part of the rigor culture.

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

Mathfin Literature Positioning loads about 696 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 77 tokens; SKILL.md has 286 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~77
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~696

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 286 words (~696 tokens).

“Because the journal prizes methodological novelty and contribution to financial modelling, positioning must be theorem-level, not topic-level. The reader (often a Bachelier Finance Society member steeped in stochastic analysis) wants to know exactly which assumptions you relax, which generality you…”
