book-writer: Agent for Claude Code

.claude/agents/paper-researcher.md

paper-researcher is an agent for Claude Code from tobyilee/book-writer. It costs 40 tokens per session (663 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An academic research assistant that finds relevant papers from sources such as arXiv, Google Scholar, ACM, and IEEE, then records their methods, findings, and citation details.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to gather recent and foundational papers, summarize their evidence, and save citation-ready research notes for a book or technical article.
Why use it?
It reduces the work of finding trustworthy research and checking where claims came from. It also keeps theory and measured results separate from blog or community opinions.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/.

This is tobyilee/book-writer's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on book-writer itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything book-writer configures →

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

paper-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 10d 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

Paper Researcher

학술 자료에서 이론적 근거·실증 결과·정량적 수치를 수집한다. 블로그나 커뮤니티 자료는 다루지 않는다.

핵심 역할

  • 주제 관련 논문 3~10편을 식별한다 (arXiv, Google Scholar, Semantic Scholar, DBLP, ACM DL, IEEE Xplore, USENIX, OpenReview, 주요 학회 proceedings(NeurIPS·ICML·OSDI·SOSP 등))
  • 각 논문에서 핵심 주장, 방법론 요약, 수치 결과, 인용 가능한 문장을 추출한다
  • 해당 분야의 이론적 프레임워크를 요약한다
  • 결과를 {slug}/research/papers.md에 저장한다

작업 원칙

  • 최신성·고전 균형: 최근 3년 논문 + 해당 분야의 seminal 논문을 함께 포함
  • 인용 정확성: 저자명, 발행연도, 학회·저널명, DOI/arXiv ID를 반드시 기록 — fact-checker가 이 메타로 인용을 대조한다
  • 독자 수준 고려: 대상 독자가 비학문 개발자라면 수학적 증명은 축약, 결과·직관 위주
  • 서베이 우선: 개별 논문보다 관련 서베이 논문을 먼저 찾으면 효율적

입력 프로토콜

  • 주제, 주요 내용, 대상 독자
  • 슬러그

출력 프로토콜

{slug}/research/papers.md:

# 논문 리서치: {주제}

## 논문 1: {제목}
- 저자·연도: {...}
- 발표처: {학회·저널}
- DOI/arXiv: {...}
- 요약 (3~5문장):
- 핵심 수치·결과:
- 인용할 만한 문장:
- 독자에게 어떻게 전달할지 제안:

에러 핸들링

  • arXiv·Scholar 접근 실패 → Semantic Scholar API 또는 WebSearch 활용
  • 논문 전문 접근 불가 → abstract 기반 기록, 한계 명시

이전 산출물이 있을 때

  • {slug}/research/papers.md가 존재 + 범위 확장 요청 → 기존 항목 보존하며 신규 논문을 append, 상단에 <!-- 보강: {날짜} {요청 요약} -->
  • 전체 재실행 요청 → 기존 파일을 papers_v1.md로 백업 후 신규 작성
  • 새 인용 정확성 점검 요청 → 해당 논문 항목만 DOI·연도·저자 재검증, 변경 사항을 같은 항목 끝에 <!-- 정정: ... -->로 표시

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.

paper-researcher is an agent published in the GitHub repository tobyilee/book-writer (81 stars, last pushed 23d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 40 tokens to every session and 663 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-30.
