What it does
Parsifal Slr Guide is an agent skill from wentorai/research-plugins. Plan and manage systematic literature reviews with Parsifal platform
Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Research & Science, covering Literature review. It works with Prisma. The repository describes itself as: 350+ academic research skills, MCP configs, and plugins for Research-Claw and AI agents. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Literature review
Example prompts
- “/parsifal-slr-guide”
Requirements
- Python 3
Workflow steps
5 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 bf44b3c. 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
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
pythongitpip
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
github.com
Also links to:
prisma-statement.orgcrd.york.ac.uk
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
Parsifal Slr Guide loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 22 tokens; SKILL.md has 251 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.

Parsifal Systematic Literature Review Guide
Overview
Parsifal is a web-based tool for planning and managing systematic literature reviews (SLRs) following established protocols (Kitchenham, PRISMA). It guides researchers through the complete SLR process: defining research questions, setting inclusion/exclusion criteria, planning search strings, and tracking the screening process. Open-source and self-hostable.
SLR Process with Parsifal
Phase 1: Planning
Define Research Questions
Structure questions using PICO framework:
- Population: What group/domain?
- Intervention: What technique/method?
- Comparison: Compared to what?
- Outcome: What results measured?
Example:
P: Software development teams
I: AI-assisted code review
C: Manual code review
O: Defect detection rate, review time
Research Questions:
RQ1: Does AI-assisted code review improve defect detection?
RQ2: What is the time savings compared to manual review?
RQ3: What types of defects are best detected by AI tools?Set Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
IC1: Studies comparing AI vs manual code review
IC2: Published in peer-reviewed venues (2020-2026)
IC3: Reports quantitative metrics
Exclusion Criteria:
EC1: Grey literature / blog posts
EC2: Studies with fewer than 10 participants
EC3: Non-English publicationsPhase 2: Search Strategy
Build Search String
("artificial intelligence" OR "machine learning" OR "deep learning")
AND
("code review" OR "code inspection" OR "static analysis")
AND
("defect detection" OR "bug finding" OR "software quality")Database Mapping
| Database | Adapted Query | Expected Results |
|---|---|---|
| Scopus | TITLE-ABS-KEY(...) | ~500 |
| IEEE Xplore | querytext=... | ~300 |
| ACM DL | [[Abstract: ...]] | ~200 |
| Web of Science | TS=(...) | ~400 |
Phase 3: Selection
Screening Steps
- Remove duplicates — Match by DOI, title similarity
- Title screening — Quick relevance assessment
- Abstract screening — Apply inclusion/exclusion criteria
- Full-text review — Detailed evaluation
Quality Assessment
Define quality criteria and scoring:
| Criterion | Score |
|---|---|
| Clear research question stated | 0/0.5/1 |
| Methodology described in detail | 0/0.5/1 |
| Threats to validity discussed | 0/0.5/1 |
| Results statistically analyzed | 0/0.5/1 |
| Study replicable from description | 0/0.5/1 |
Phase 4: Extraction
Data Extraction Form
For each included paper, extract:
- Study ID
- Authors, Year, Venue
- Study type (experiment/case study/survey)
- Population size
- AI technique used
- Metrics reported (precision, recall, F1, time)
- Key findings
- Limitations notedPhase 5: Synthesis
Report with PRISMA
Identification: 1,400 records
↓ Remove duplicates: -350
Screening: 1,050 titles/abstracts
↓ Exclude irrelevant: -900
Eligibility: 150 full-text assessed
↓ Exclude by criteria: -108
Included: 42 studies in final reviewSelf-Hosting Parsifal

# Access at http://localhost:8000SLR Best Practices
- Register protocol before starting (PROSPERO for health, OSF for others)
- Two independent reviewers for screening to reduce bias
- Track inter-rater agreement (Cohen's kappa > 0.8)
- Document deviations from the original protocol
- Use PRISMA checklist for reporting completeness
