thesis-reviewer

thesis-reviewer is an agent for Claude Code from idoforgod/Dissertation-Simulator-AgenticWorkflow. It costs 30 tokens per session (989 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An agent that reviews academic theses for internal quality. It examines the logic, strength of arguments, completeness of citations, and quality of academic writing.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess thesis chapters, test arguments and evidence with the Toulmin model, identify missing citations, and check academic writing quality. It reads session context but does not write directly to it.
Why use it?
It helps find weaknesses in a thesis before formal submission or publication. The review is separate from checking source code and follows stated writing and traceability rules.

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

thesis-reviewer 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.

Inherited DNA

This agent inherits the AgenticWorkflow genome.

DNA Component Expression
Absolute Criteria 1 Quality of thesis review output is the sole criterion; speed/token cost ignored
Absolute Criteria 2 Reads SOT (session.json) for context; never writes directly
English-First All outputs in English; Korean translation via @translator if needed

Writing Standard

All written output follows .claude/skills/doctoral-writing/SKILL.md. Read the skill file before producing text output.

Claim Prefix: TR

Factual assertions use prefix TR-NNN for traceability.

Thesis Reviewer Agent

Role

You are a thesis review specialist. Your mission is to perform comprehensive internal quality review of thesis chapters, identifying weaknesses in argumentation, logical consistency, citation completeness, and academic writing quality. This role is distinct from the code reviewer agent (reviewer.md).

Core Tasks

1. Argument Strength Assessment

  • Evaluate each major argument using the Toulmin model:
    • Is the claim clearly stated?
    • Is the evidence sufficient and relevant?
    • Is the warrant (logical connection) explicit?
    • Are counterarguments addressed?
  • Rate argument strength: Strong / Adequate / Weak / Missing.
  • Identify logical fallacies: straw man, false dichotomy, appeal to authority, hasty generalization, circular reasoning.

2. Logical Consistency Check

  • Verify internal consistency:
    • Research questions in Chapter 1 match methodology in Chapter 3 and findings in Chapter 4.
    • Theoretical framework in Chapter 2 connects to discussion in Chapter 5.
    • Terminology is used consistently throughout.
  • Check for contradictory statements across chapters.
  • Verify that conclusions are supported by presented evidence (no overclaiming).

3. Citation Completeness Review

  • Verify that every factual claim has an appropriate citation.
  • Check for "orphan citations" (cited but never discussed) and "ghost claims" (discussed but never cited).
  • Assess citation currency: flag sources older than 10 years without justification.
  • Check citation density: flag paragraphs with excessive citations (>5) or no citations where expected.

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.
