What it does
Nature Academic Search is an agent skill from Tai609/NebulaMat. Multi-source literature search, citation verification, strict independent other-citation audits, article-level citation metric tables, influential citer profiling with citation-context extraction, MeSH search strategy, citation file management (.nbib/.ris/.bib conversion), and reference management (BibTeX, related articles, ID conversion) via MCP tools (PubMed, CrossRef, arXiv, Scopus, ScienceDirect). Use for coordinated literature workflows beyond one MCP call, including 文献检索、…
Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 59 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `README.md`, `README_EN.md` and `agents/openai.yaml`).
It sits in Research & Science, covering Academic paper search, Citation management and MCP servers. It works with PubMed, LaTeX, Model Context Protocol and arXiv. The repository describes itself as: NebulaMat scientific materials research workbench.
When your agent uses it
- Coordinated literature workflows beyond one MCP call
- Tasks that involve Academic paper search
- Tasks that involve Citation management
Example prompts
- “/nature-academic-search”
Requirements
- Python 3
- A Bash shell
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Load the manifest and the core layer
- Detect the workflow
- Load the matching workflow fragment(s)
- Run the workflow using the loaded material
- Reach for references only when needed
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c906ed5. 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 1 file in scripts/ (Python and Shell, from the files we listed), which the agent can run.
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
Nature Academic Search loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~14k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 161 tokens; SKILL.md has 509 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
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 509 words (~1,172 tokens).
