What it does
Sf Topic Selection is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use when deciding whether a project fits Social Forces (SF) and how to frame it. SF is a general social-science journal (centered on sociology) that prizes methodological rigor and a theoretically grounded contribution of interest to a broad audience. Helps frame the question and judge fit; it does not collect data.
Its SKILL.md is about 930 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
- Deciding whether a project fits Social Forces (SF) and how to frame it
Example prompts
- “/sf-topic-selection”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- General social-science significance. A reader outside your subfield — even outside sociology —
- Methodological rigor. SF's reputation is built on credible identification, careful measurement,
- A theoretically grounded contribution. Not a bare finding — a result attached to a mechanism or
- A scope that fits the cap. The question must be answerable convincingly in **≤ 10,000 words
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
Sf Topic Selection loads about 926 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 84 tokens; SKILL.md has 370 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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 370 words (~926 tokens).
“Social Forces calls itself "a global leader among social research journals" and publishes "articles of interest to a general social science audience." The bar is not "new to my subfield" — it is rigorous, theoretically grounded, and significant to a…”
