What it does
Paper Reading is an agent skill from sodalone/paper-reading-skill. 系统阅读、解释和批判性分析单篇 arXiv AI / 机器人论文，并生成一份主线清楚、核心内容不缺失、审稿证据可追溯的自包含 Markdown 报告。适用于 arXiv 链接、ID 或其 PDF 的精读、方法/理论/系统讲解、完整 Claim 审查、实验/证明/协议/代码证据核对、相关文献定位和复现或验证判断；默认执行完整精读，仅在用户明确要求速读时缩减覆盖范围。当前流水线不支持无法解析出 arXiv ID 的本地 PDF、普通 PDF URL 或 DOI 页面；不要用于纯摘要改写、无原文依据的自由发挥或多论文 survey。
Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 30 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `README.md`, `agents/openai.yaml` and `examples/example-prompts.md`).
It sits in Research & Science, covering Academic paper search and PDF. It works with arXiv.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Academic paper search

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 82a0a00. 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 6 files in scripts/ (Python and Shell, from the files we listed), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
bashpython3
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 Reading loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs, and up to ~6.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 70 tokens; SKILL.md has 254 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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 254 words (~1,338 tokens).
- name

When should I use Paper Reading?
Paper Reading fits situations like: tasks that involve Academic paper search; tasks that involve PDF.
How do I install Paper Reading in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add sodalone/paper-reading-skill --skill paper-reading -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (the sodalone/paper-reading-skill repository) into .claude/skills/paper-reading in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Paper Reading in Codex?
Run `npx skills add sodalone/paper-reading-skill --skill paper-reading -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (the sodalone/paper-reading-skill repository) into .agents/skills/paper-reading in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Can I use Paper Reading 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 sodalone/paper-reading-skill --skill paper-reading -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/paper-reading, .gemini/skills/paper-reading, .github/skills/paper-reading and .opencode/skills/paper-reading in your project.
What does Paper Reading need to run?
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Paper Reading needs Python and a shell for the scripts in its folder and the command-line tools its instructions call (bash and python3). Our summary lists: Python 3; A Bash shell.
Does Paper Reading access the network?
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is Paper Reading 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 Paper Reading use?
No licence was found for Paper Reading or its repository. Without one, default copyright applies: ask the author before reusing or redistributing it.
How many tokens does Paper Reading use?
About 1.3k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 5.4k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 5.1k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
What are the alternatives to Paper Reading?
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Paper Reading: Paper Reading (Edwardxlai/easyread, 871 stars), Ref Downloader (ltczding-gif/ref-downloader, 139 stars), Summary (alaliqing/claude-paper, 343 stars) and Paper Explainer (ZJU-REAL/Easel, 3.3k stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
