What it does

Paper Research Form is an agent skill from nanoAgentTeam/research-claw. Generate structured CSV literature survey tables. MUST activate this skill (instead of plain-text replies) when the user requests a literature review, paper collection, related work survey, or comparison of papers on a topic. 生成结构化 CSV 文献调研表格。当用户要求调研论文、收集文献、整理相关工作、对比论文时，必须激活此 skill 生成 CSV 输出，而非纯文字回复。 Triggers: survey, related work, literature review, paper list, find papers, collect papers, compare papers, 调研, 文献, 找论文, 相关论文, 收集论文, 整理文献, 论文列表, 帮我找论文. Output: multi-source search → metadata extraction → 8-column CSV…

Its SKILL.md is about 830 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `references/csv-schema.md`, `references/merge-and-delivery.md` and `references/search-strategy.md`).

It sits in Research & Science, covering Literature review, CSV and tabular files and Academic paper search. The repository describes itself as: A self-hosted AI assistant for academic research — manages your papers, searches literature, tracks deadlines, and answers you on the channels you already use. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Requests a literature review
  • Paper collection
  • Related work survey
  • Comparison of papers on a topic

Example prompts

  • “/paper-research-form”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): web_search, web_fetch, read_file, write_file, send_file

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Clarify Scope
  2. Search And Verify
  3. Build Rows
  4. Merge Or Create Output
  5. Write CSV
  6. Deliver File
  7. Report

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ce3a4ac. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • web_search
    • web_fetch
    • read_file
    • write_file
    • send_file

    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

Paper Research Form loads about 833 tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 155 tokens; SKILL.md has 358 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~155
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~833
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.5k

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: PAPER RESEARCH FORM — CSV LITERATURE SURVEY]

Generate a literature survey as a CSV file and deliver the file to the user in chat.

Keep this file lean. Load the reference documents only when reaching the matching step.

Workflow

1. Clarify Scope

Confirm these inputs if the user has not already specified them:

  • research topic or keywords
  • target venues or any
  • year range
  • paper count

Use these defaults when needed:

  • year range: last 3 years
  • paper count: 10-15
2. Search And Verify

Load references/search-strategy.md before broad search.

Search multiple sources, then verify metadata for each candidate paper.

Use web_fetch on promising results to verify:

  • title
  • authors
  • abstract
  • venue
  • year
  • canonical link

Never fabricate metadata. Skip weak candidates that cannot be verified.

3. Build Rows

Load references/csv-schema.md before writing any row.

Transform each verified paper into one CSV row using the required 8-column schema. Write the summary in original wording. Rate relevance against the user's actual research goal.

4. Merge Or Create Output

Load references/merge-and-delivery.md before selecting the output file.

Append by default:

  • look for matching survey_*.csv files
  • pick the newest matching file
  • skip duplicate titles
  • create a new file only when no match exists or the user requests a new survey direction
5. Write CSV

Write the final CSV with:

  • UTF-8 BOM
  • correct CSV escaping
  • rows sorted by relevance first, then year descending
Show full SKILL.md (135 more words)Show less
6. Deliver File

This step is mandatory.

  • Call send_file immediately after write_file
  • Retry once if send_file fails
  • Do not claim the file was sent unless send_file actually returned success
  • Do not continue to the report step until send_file has actually been called
7. Report

After file delivery, report:

  • total papers found
  • relevance breakdown
  • top 3 most relevant papers
  • gaps or follow-up searches

Reference Files

Load only the file needed for the current step:

  • references/search-strategy.md - query design, source priority, metadata verification, relevance rules
  • references/csv-schema.md - 8-column schema, field rules, BOM, escaping
  • references/merge-and-delivery.md - append rules, dedupe, file naming, send flow

Quality Rules

  • Never hallucinate papers
  • Never guess metadata
  • Keep the published venue version when both preprint and publication exist
  • Skip workshop papers unless the user explicitly requests them
  • Treat the task as incomplete until send_file has been executed
