What it does
Paper Self Review is an agent skill from Galaxy-Dawn/claude-scholar. This skill should be used when the user asks to "review paper quality", "check paper completeness", "validate paper structure", "self-review before submission", "audit claims", "check overclaiming", "verify whether results support claims", or mentions systematic paper quality checking. Provides comprehensive quality assurance checklist for academic papers.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including reference files (for example `examples/example-self-review.md`, `references/FINAL-VERDICT.md` and `references/SECTION-CHECKLIST.md`).
It sits in Testing & QA, covering QA and bug reports and Citation management. The repository describes itself as: Semi-automated research assistant for academic research and software development. Supports Claude Code, Codex CLI, Kimi Code CLI, and OpenCode across ideation, coding… The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Asks to review paper quality
- Check paper completeness
- Validate paper structure
- Self-review before submission
Example prompts
- “review paper quality”
- “check paper completeness”
- “validate paper structure”
- “/paper-self-review”
Workflow steps
12 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9037873. 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 (its code samples are markdown).
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
Paper Self Review loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 94 tokens; SKILL.md has 644 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.

Paper Self-Review
A systematic paper quality checking tool that helps researchers conduct comprehensive self-review before submission.
Core Features
1. Structure Review
Check whether all sections of the paper are complete and conform to academic standards:
- Does the Abstract include problem, method, results, and contributions?
- Does the Introduction clearly articulate research motivation and background?
- Is the Method detailed enough to be reproducible?
- Do the Results sufficiently support the conclusions?
- Does the Discussion address limitations and future work?
2. Logic Consistency Check
Verify the logical coherence of the paper:
- Do research questions match the methodology?
- Does the experimental design support the research hypotheses?
- Are result interpretations reasonable?
- Are conclusions supported by evidence?
3. Citation Completeness
Check the completeness and accuracy of citations:
- Are all citations present in the references?
- Is the reference format consistent?
- Are key related works cited?
- Do citations accurately reflect the original content?
4. Research Claim Audit
Check whether the paper's claims are supported by the available evidence:
- Are the main claims supported by results, citations, or analysis artifacts?
- Are speculative observations clearly marked as tentative?
- Does the paper avoid stronger wording than the evidence allows?
- Are negative results, limitations, and missing baselines presented honestly?
- Do conclusions stay inside the tested scope?
This audit does not replace results-analysis for statistics or citation-verification for bibliographic verification. It checks whether paper claims correctly use the available evidence.
5. Figure/Table Quality
Evaluate the quality and effectiveness of figures and tables:
- Do all figures/tables have clear titles and captions?
- Do figures/tables support the text narrative?
- Are figures/tables clear and readable?
- Do formats comply with journal/conference requirements?
6. Writing Clarity
Check writing clarity and readability:
- Is the language concise and clear?
- Is technical terminology used appropriately?
- Are sentence structures clear?
- Is paragraph organization logical?
Quality Checklist
Use this checklist for systematic paper self-review:
Paper Quality Checklist:
- [ ] Abstract includes problem, method, results, contributions
- [ ] Introduction clearly states research motivation
- [ ] Method is reproducible
- [ ] Results support conclusions
- [ ] Main claims are supported by named evidence
- [ ] Over-strong claims are weakened or removed
- [ ] Discussion addresses limitations
- [ ] All figures/tables have captions
- [ ] Citations are complete and accurateWhen to Use
Use this skill in the following scenarios:
- Pre-submission check - Final review before submitting to a journal or conference
- After first draft - Systematic review after completing the first draft
- Before advisor review - Self-check before requesting advisor feedback to improve quality
- Post-revision verification - After revising based on reviewer comments, verify all issues are addressed
- Collaborator review - Quality check before sending to collaborators
Review Process
Follow these steps for systematic paper review:
Step 1: Structure Review
Start with the overall structure, checking if all sections are complete and logically coherent.
Show full SKILL.md (255 more words)Show less
Step 2: Content Review
Dive into each section, checking content accuracy and completeness.
Step 3: Research Claim Audit
Check whether each major claim is supported by the evidence available in the draft, analysis bundle, citations, or project notes.
Use this output shape:

Suggested wording:Step 4: Citation Check
Verify the completeness and accuracy of all citations.
Step 5: Figure/Table Review
Check the quality and captions of all figures and tables.
Step 6: Writing Quality
Review language expression and writing clarity.
Step 7: Final Checklist
Use the quality checklist for final verification.
Best Practices
Review Timing
- Spaced review - Wait 1-2 days after completing the draft before reviewing to maintain objectivity
- Multiple rounds - Conduct multiple review rounds, focusing on different aspects each time
- Print review - Print a hard copy for review; issues are easier to spot on paper
Review Techniques
- Reverse reading - Read from conclusion backwards to check logical coherence
- Read aloud - Reading the paper aloud helps identify language issues
- Reviewer perspective - Assume you are a reviewer and read critically
Common Issues
- Abstract too brief or too verbose
- Introduction lacks clear research question statement
- Method lacks sufficient detail for reproduction
- Results lack statistical significance tests
- Discussion doesn't address research limitations
- Figures/tables lack clear titles and captions
- Inconsistent citation formatting
Summary
The Paper Self-Review skill provides a systematic paper quality checking process, helping researchers identify and resolve issues before submission, improving paper quality and acceptance rates.
