What is agentic-reviewer AGENTS.md?

Repository instructions for an academic peer-review framework that uses coding agents to assess papers against a journal or conference's requirements. It converts PDF or DOCX papers to Markdown, researches publication guidance and produces a dated review report.

Use them when setting up a paper review, converting a paper, researching a publication venue, or producing a structured report with ratings and a recommendation.

They explain the review workflow and where papers, cached journal research and generated results belong. This helps agents apply the right criteria and preserve the artifacts from each review.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.01493	$0.01493
Opus 5.5	$0.00597	$0.00597

Security

Grade A, and why

agentic-reviewer AGENTS.md 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 2mo 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.

Agentic Reviewer — Journal Paper Review Framework

Project Overview

An OpenCode- and Codex-compatible agentic framework for academic paper peer review. Given a paper and a target journal/conference, a team of agents:

Converts non-Markdown papers (PDF, DOCX, etc.) to Markdown using markitdown
Explores the journal's requirements, recent publications, style guide, and reputation
Reviews the paper against those requirements across five dimensions
Compiles a final structured review report with ratings and recommendation

Every review session produces a timestamped report directory containing all artifacts.

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.
