What it does

Research Literature Router is an agent skill from wentorai/Research-Claw. 科研文献能力入口:检索、全文、元数据、引文追踪与发现。Use for literature databases, full text, bibliometrics, alerts, and citation networks.

Its SKILL.md is about 180 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 Citation management. The repository describes itself as: In the AI era, why can't everyone be a Principal Investigator?

When your agent uses it

  • Literature databases
  • Citation networks

Example prompts

  • “/research-literature-router”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Call skill_search with the database, evidence type, and intended operation.
  2. Inspect the bounded metadata results and select one stable Skill ID.
  3. Call skill_load for the selected ID before executing its workflow.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5015be7. 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

    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

Research Literature Router loads about 176 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 35 tokens; SKILL.md has 71 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~35
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~176

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.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 71 words (~176 tokens).

“Use this router for database-specific literature search, full-text access, metadata enrichment, bibliometrics, citation traversal, or paper discovery.”
