review-writing

review-writing is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from AndyZhuang/Opentest. It costs 0 tokens per session (4,847 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of review-writing, MIT.

A structured method for writing literature reviews, which summarize and compare research on a topic. It breaks the work into sections that are searched, organized, written, cited, and saved separately.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write review articles from an outline, search for supporting studies, organize themes, add citations, and assemble the finished manuscript.
Why use it?
It helps manage large reviews that are too long to write reliably in one pass and keeps source-finding and citations tied to each section.

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

review-writing 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 8d 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.

Origin

100% identical to review-writing — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 503 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Review Writing — 学术综述逐节写作方法论

Use this skill when the user asks to write a literature review, review article, or 综述 based on an outline. Trigger keywords: "写综述", "write review", "综述写作", "按大纲写", "逐节写", "review section", "写第N节". This skill orchestrates the ENTIRE review writing process from outline to finished manuscript.

This skill calls academic-literature-search skill for all search and citation operations. Read that skill first if not already loaded.

Tool routing: PubMed operations → MCP tools (pubmed_search_articles, pubmed_fetch_contents, pubmed_article_connections). arXiv search, GB/T 7714 formatting, citation processing → Python code. See academic-literature-search for the complete routing table and code templates.


Architecture: Why Section-by-Section

A full review (12,000–15,000 words, 100–130 references) CANNOT be written in one pass due to context window limits. The correct approach:

Outline
  → [Phase 0: Validate & Revise outline]
  → [Phase 1..N: Per-section pipeline]
  → [Final: Assemble full review]

Each section is an independent unit of work:
  Search → Filter → Group → Write → Cite → Save to file
                                              ↓
                                    section_N.md (persisted immediately)

Final assembly reads all section files → cross-section dedup → unified numbering

Phase 0: Outline Validation & Revision (大纲验证与修订)

DO NOT skip this phase. No outline is perfect before reading the literature.

Step 0.1: Read the outline

Read the user's outline file. Parse each section's title, sub-topics, and any pre-identified references.

Step 0.2: Scout search (侦察检索)

For each section, run ONE quick search using the section title/topic as query:

  • MCP pubmed_search_articles (maxResults=10, fetchBriefSummaries=5)
  • For CS/AI-heavy sections: also Python search_arxiv() (max_results=5)
  • For sections with known seed papers: MCP pubmed_article_connections (similar, maxRelatedResults=5)

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.
