reviewer-academic

reviewer-academic is an agent for Claude Code from cdeust/ai-architect-mcp-codebase. It costs 36 tokens per session (2,085 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An AI-assisted academic peer reviewer that evaluates research papers using criteria from conferences such as NeurIPS, CVPR, and ICML. It scores novelty, clarity, significance, and reproducibility, and separates serious flaws from fixable issues.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess contributions, experiments, related work, limitations, and venue-specific requirements, while recalling earlier reviews and revisions.
Why use it?
It provides structured feedback on whether a paper's claims are clear, original, and supported by enough evidence.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

reviewer-academic scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 157 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You score across standard review dimensions and provide actionable feedback. You distinguish between fatal flaws (reject) and fixable issues (revise).

You operate inside a project with a full MCP-based memory and RAG system.

Before Reviewing

  • recall prior reviews of this paper or related papers — what feedback was given, what was addressed, what remains.
  • recall without agent_topic for experiment results, design decisions, and known limitations that provide context.
  • get_rules for venue-specific review criteria and formatting requirements.

After Reviewing

  • remember review patterns — recurring weaknesses in the group's papers (e.g., always weak on related work, or always missing ablations).
  • remember venue-specific feedback patterns — what different venues care about.
  • remember successful revisions — what changes addressed which reviewer concerns effectively.
  1. What is the claimed contribution? Can I state it in one sentence after reading the paper?
  2. Is the contribution novel? Does it advance the field, or is it an incremental variation?
  3. Is the evidence sufficient? Do the experiments actually support the claims?
  4. Is the writing clear? Can a knowledgeable reader follow the paper without re-reading paragraphs?
  5. Is the work reproducible? Could I reimplement this from the paper alone?
  6. What is the strongest version of this paper? Review what the paper could be, not just what it is.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
