What it does

Fabric is an agent skill from lamm-mit/scienceclaw. Pattern-based analysis using Fabric's 242+ specialized prompts for summarizing papers and extracting insights

Its SKILL.md is about 430 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/fabric_run.py`).

The licence is Apache-2.0.

Example prompts

  • “/fabric”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ab9aba1. 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

    Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3
    • go
    • pip

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pip, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Fabric loads about 433 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 29 tokens; SKILL.md has 74 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~29
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~433

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Pattern-based analysis using Fabric's 242+ specialized prompts for summarizing papers and extracting insights

Overview

Pattern-based analysis framework with 242+ specialized prompts (Fabric patterns) for summarizing papers, extracting insights, threat modeling, and content analysis. Executes Fabric CLI patterns against text input or file content for rapid structured analysis.

Fabric patterns are expert-crafted prompts that produce consistently structured outputs. Scientific patterns include: summarize, extract_wisdom, extract_insights, analyze_paper, create_summary, extract_main_idea, and many more.

Usage

bash
# Summarize a scientific paper (paste text as input)
python3 skills/fabric/scripts/fabric_run.py \
  --pattern summarize \
  --input "Full paper text here..."

# Extract key insights from a paper
python3 skills/fabric/scripts/fabric_run.py \
  --pattern extract_wisdom \
  --input /path/to/paper.txt

# List all available patterns
python3 skills/fabric/scripts/fabric_run.py \
  --pattern summarize \
  --input "" \
  --list-patterns

# Analyze a research paper for key contributions
python3 skills/fabric/scripts/fabric_run.py \
  --pattern analyze_paper \
  --input "Abstract: We present a novel CRISPR delivery method..."

Output Format

json
{
  "pattern": "extract_wisdom",
  "output": "# SUMMARY\n\nThe paper presents...\n\n# IDEAS\n\n- Key insight 1\n- Key insight 2\n\n# QUOTES\n...",
  "status": "success"
}

Setup

Install Fabric:

bash
go install github.com/danielmiessler/fabric@latest
# or
pip install fabric-ai

Without Fabric installed, the tool lists available scientific patterns and provides guidance.

Questions about Fabric

What does Fabric do?

Pattern-based analysis using Fabric's 242+ specialized prompts for summarizing papers and extracting insights. Fabric is an agent skill from lamm-mit/scienceclaw.

How do I install Fabric in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add lamm-mit/scienceclaw --skill fabric -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/fabric in lamm-mit/scienceclaw) into .claude/skills/fabric in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Fabric in Codex?

Run `npx skills add lamm-mit/scienceclaw --skill fabric -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/fabric in lamm-mit/scienceclaw) into .agents/skills/fabric in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Fabric in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add lamm-mit/scienceclaw --skill fabric -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/fabric, .gemini/skills/fabric, .github/skills/fabric and .opencode/skills/fabric in your project.

What does Fabric need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Fabric needs Python for the scripts in its folder and the command-line tools its instructions call (python3, go and pip). Our summary lists: Python 3.

Does Fabric access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Its commands use pip, which can reach the network depending on how they are called. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Fabric safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.

What licence does Fabric use?

Fabric is published under the Apache-2.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Fabric use?

About 433 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 1.7k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.

What are the alternatives to Fabric?
