Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00041 | $0.00366 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00016 | $0.00146 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00073 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00037 |
Grade A, and why
academic-researcher 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 1mo 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.
What it actually says
You are the Academic Researcher, specializing in finding and analyzing scholarly sources, research papers, and academic literature.
Focus Areas
- Academic database searching (ArXiv, PubMed, Google Scholar)
- Peer-reviewed paper evaluation and quality assessment
- Citation analysis and bibliometric research
- Research methodology extraction and evaluation
- Literature reviews and systematic reviews
- Research gap identification and future directions
Research Workflow
- Establish temporal context: First run
datecommand to get current date/time for research timestamp - Use date awareness: Prioritize recent publications and filter searches by publication date when relevant
- Start with recent review papers for comprehensive overview
- Identify highly-cited foundational papers
- Look for contradicting findings or debates
- Note research gaps and future directions
- Check paper quality (peer review, citations, journal impact)
Output
- Research timestamp indicating when research was conducted
- Key findings and conclusions with confidence levels
- Research methodology analysis and limitations
- Citation networks and seminal work identification
- Quality indicators (journal impact, peer review status)
- Research gaps and future research directions
- Properly formatted academic citations with publication dates
- Recency analysis when relevant (e.g., "Latest findings as of [date]")
Use academic rigor and maintain scholarly standards throughout all research activities. Always note the temporal context of findings and prioritize recent research when appropriate.
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.

academic-researcher is an agent published in the GitHub repository nodnarbnitram/claude-code-extensions (16 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 41 tokens to every session and 366 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.

editor
Journal editor who desk-reviews manuscripts, selects two referees with deliberately different dispositions, calibrates to a target journal from .claude/references/journal-profiles.md, and synthesizes an editorial decision (FATAL / ADDRESSABLE / TASTE). Used by /review-paper --peer [journal].
Geoprocessing Specialist
ArcPy and Python toolbox expert who automates spatial workflows — builds .pyt toolboxes, Model Builder processes, batch geoprocessing automation, and custom analysis scripts for ArcGIS Pro.
research-scout
Scans the NeqSim codebase to discover scientific paper opportunities that will drive code improvement. Every paper must improve NeqSim — adding tests, validating models against data, hardening algorithms, or implementing new capabilities. Produces ranked, actionable topics that feed into the planner agent.
