What it does

Mind Conceptual Analysis And Method is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use when sharpening the concepts, distinctions, and method of a Mind article — defining key terms precisely, drawing distinctions, deploying thought experiments, and choosing the right philosophical method. Analytic philosophy lives or dies on conceptual precision and parsimony. Tightens the conceptual machinery; it does not settle the substantive question for you.

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.

When your agent uses it

  • Sharpening the concepts
  • Method of a Mind article — defining key terms precisely
  • Drawing distinctions
  • Deploying thought experiments

Example prompts

  • “/mind-conceptual-analysis-and-method”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Define the central terms. State what you mean, precisely, on first use. Distinguish your sense
  2. Disambiguate before arguing. If a term has two readings, separate them and say which one each
  3. Draw the distinction that does the work. Often the contribution is a distinction others ran
  4. Prize parsimony. Prefer the account with fewer primitives and fewer ad hoc clauses. If your

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

Mind Conceptual Analysis And Method loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 101 tokens; SKILL.md has 444 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~101
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 444 words (~1,039 tokens).

“Analytic philosophy stands or falls on precise concepts and clean distinctions. Many disputes dissolve once a term is disambiguated; many arguments fail because a key word shifts meaning between premises. This skill sharpens the conceptual machinery and picks the method…”
