What it does

Insights is an agent skill from ZimoLiao/scholaraio. Use when the user wants to analyze research behavior, search hot keywords, most-read papers, reading trends, active workspaces, or unread semantic neighbors.

Its SKILL.md is about 190 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Scholar All-In-One: A research infrastructure for AI agents. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user wants to analyze research behavior
  • Search hot keywords
  • Most-read papers
  • Active workspaces

Example prompts

  • “/insights”

Workflow steps

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

  1. 搜索热词 Top 10 — 最常出现在搜索查询中的词
  2. 最常阅读论文 Top 10 — 按 show 命令调用次数统计
  3. 阅读量趋势 — 按周统计的阅读事件数量(ASCII 柱状图)
  4. 推荐邻近论文 — 基于最近7天阅读记录的语义邻居,但尚未阅读过的
  5. 活跃工作区 — 当前工作区及其论文数量

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 777628b. 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 (its code samples are bash).

    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

Insights loads about 189 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 42 tokens; SKILL.md has 49 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~42
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~189

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.

Research Observatory

分析用户的研究行为数据,发现阅读规律和遗漏的相关论文。

执行逻辑

bash
scholaraio insights [--days N]  # 默认分析过去30天

输出内容

  1. 搜索热词 Top 10 — 最常出现在搜索查询中的词
  2. 最常阅读论文 Top 10 — 按 show 命令调用次数统计
  3. 阅读量趋势 — 按周统计的阅读事件数量(ASCII 柱状图)
  4. 推荐邻近论文 — 基于最近7天阅读记录的语义邻居,但尚未阅读过的
  5. 活跃工作区 — 当前工作区及其论文数量

前置条件

需要先累积一定量的使用数据(search、usearch、vsearch 和 show 命令会自动记录事件到 data/metrics.db)。

示例

用户说:"我最近都在看哪些方向的论文?" → 执行 insights --days 30

用户说:"看看我过去一周的阅读记录" → 执行 insights --days 7

用户说:"推荐一些我可能还没读过的相关论文" → 执行 insights --days 14(关注第4项"推荐邻近论文"输出)
