intake-project

intake-project is a skill for Claude Code from Aperivue/medsci-skills. It costs 40 tokens per session (1,932 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A first-review workflow for a new or disorganized radiology research project. It classifies the project, summarizes what is available, identifies missing information, and creates lightweight project notes.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for organizing paper, proposal, grant, review, case-report, and technical-note projects and deciding what needs to happen next.
Why use it?
It gives a messy folder or collection of documents a clear starting state before other research tasks begin.

    Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.
    Fix: Add human-in-the-loop confirmation for destructive, irreversible, or high-impact operations. Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.

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

intake-project 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.

Intake-Project Skill

Purpose

This skill is the front door for a new or messy project. It converts a folder, document bundle, or mixed set of notes into a structured project state that other skills can use safely.

Use this skill when:

  • a new paper or proposal folder has been created
  • an older folder exists but is poorly organized
  • the user asks "what is this project and what should I do next?"
  • another skill needs a reliable project summary before proceeding

Communication Rules

  • Communicate with the user in their preferred language.
  • Keep project labels and file names in the language already used by the workspace.
  • Use English for manuscript section names, study design names, and medical/statistical terminology.

Inputs

Accept any of the following:

  • a project folder
  • a manuscript draft
  • an abstract or proposal
  • tables/figures plus notes
  • a mixed folder with PDFs, drafts, and analyses

If information is incomplete, infer cautiously from file names and contents, then label uncertain items clearly.


Core Tasks

1. Project classification

Determine:

  • project type: original | review | meta-analysis | case report | technical note | grant | peer review | challenge | career-doc
  • primary domain: radiology | medical AI | multimodal LLM | intervention | survival/prognostic | diagnostic accuracy | workflow
  • target output: paper | abstract | grant | review | rebuttal | CV
  • likely target journal or venue, if recoverable

2. State reconstruction

Identify:

  • what already exists
  • what is missing
  • current phase
  • blocking dependencies

3. Project memory scaffold

If missing, propose or create lightweight anchor files:

  • PROJECT.md
  • STATUS.md
  • CLAIMS.md
  • DATA_DICTIONARY.md
  • ANALYSIS_PLAN.md
  • REVIEW_LOG.md

Create only files that are justified by the project type.

4. Action plan

Produce the next 3-5 actions in dependency order.


Canonical Manuscript Folder Structure

For any manuscript project (cohort, MA, RCT, case series), enforce this structure when scaffolding or reorganizing. Map every new artifact into one of these slots — do not invent ad-hoc folders.

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.
