cross-reference-linking

cross-reference-linking is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from aizech/clinical-skills. It costs 51 tokens per session (549 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A research helper for connecting current findings with earlier studies, related publications, medical images, patient records, or pathology results. Pathology is the study of disease through laboratory samples.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for prior-study comparisons, literature searches, follow-up changes over time, comparisons across imaging types, and links between imaging and clinical or pathology data.
Why use it?
It helps provide historical and clinical context, so current findings can be compared with what came before or with other 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

cross-reference-linking 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 6d 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.

Cross-Reference Linking Skill

Triggers

  • "compare to priors"
  • "find prior studies"
  • "correlate with"
  • "longitudinal comparison"
  • "followup from"
  • "related findings"
  • "pathology correlation"

Parameters

  • reference_type (required): Type of cross-reference needed
    • prior_studies - Historical imaging comparison
    • literature - Relevant published cases or studies
    • followup - Sequential study comparison
    • multimodality - Different modality correlation
    • pathology - Radiology-pathology correlation
    • clinical - EHR/clinical data correlation
  • finding_summary (required): Current finding to cross-reference
  • patient_id (optional): Patient identifier for prior search
  • date_range (optional): Time window for prior search

Cross-Reference Types

Prior Study Comparison

  • Modality, date, and key findings of historical studies
  • Size/dimension comparisons for measurable findings
  • Density/signal intensity comparisons
  • Change assessment (stable, improved, progressed)

Literature Correlation

  • Similar published cases
  • Expected imaging appearances
  • Atypical presentations
  • Prognostic implications

Pathology Correlation

  • Common pathologies for imaging appearance
  • Staging implications (TNM, etc.)
  • Molecular markers and imaging correlates
  • Treatment response patterns

Clinical Correlation

  • Lab values relevant to imaging findings
  • Symptoms and clinical history
  • Treatment history and timeline

Output Format

Returns structured JSON with:

  • Prior finding references with dates
  • Comparison metrics (size, characteristics)
  • Change assessment with confidence
  • Recommendations for followup
  • Related literature citations

Usage Examples

reference_type: prior_studies
finding_summary: 2.5 cm lung nodule right upper lobe
patient_id: MRN12345

reference_type: pathology
finding_summary: irregular spiculated mass left lower lobe

reference_type: followup
finding_summary: 1.2 cm thyroid nodule compared to 6 months prior

Changes

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.

cross-reference-linking is a skill published in the GitHub repository aizech/clinical-skills (4 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 51 tokens to every session and 549 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-31.
