What it does
Novelty Evaluator is an agent skill from XueruiSu/Paper-PRISM. Use when Codex needs to evaluate novelty, closest related works, differentiators, and novelty-related rejection risks for a PaperPRISM project.
Its SKILL.md is about 290 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.
When your agent uses it
- Codex needs to evaluate novelty
- Closest related works
- Differentiators
- Novelty-related rejection risks for a PaperPRISM project
Example prompts
- “/novelty-evaluator”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Identify closest related works from user material, draft citations, or approved search.
- Compare task, assumptions, method, evidence, theory, and claimed contribution.
- Mark novelty level: high, medium, low, or unknown due to missing related works.
- Recommend differentiators or reframing.
- Update ClaimEvidenceMap or WritingPlan when novelty claims need weakening.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 13e134f. 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
Novelty Evaluator loads about 291 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 40 tokens; SKILL.md has 125 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.
