Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00149 | $0.01942 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00060 | $0.00777 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00030 | $0.00388 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00015 | $0.00194 |
Grade A, and why
finance-literature-review 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 26d 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.

Finance Literature Review
Purpose
Run a rigorous, PhD-level finance literature review that reflects the standards of top finance seminars, referee reports, and dissertation chapters.
Key objectives:
- Scope the research question and identify topic maturity (frontier vs. mature paradigm).
- Prioritize venues using a dynamic hierarchy that values elite working papers alongside top peer-reviewed journals.
- Systematically discover working papers via SSRN FEN, NBER programs, CEPR, central bank series, and premier conference programs.
- Enforce the Abstract Quarantine: Prohibit agents from inferring contributions, econometric designs, or magnitudes from abstracts alone.
- Execute the 3-Anchor Introduction Protocol: Retrieve the Introduction (Paras 3–11) and baseline table notes to verify actual causal variation, quantitative magnitudes, and self-stated contributions.
- Map Intellectual Lineage & Ownership: Distinguish Theoretical Originators from Empirical Landmarks, Causal Identification Benchmarks, and Boundary Reassessments. Record what previous papers established vs. what they left open.
- Deliver actionable outputs (reading list, 16-column literature matrix, related literature section, or research gap map).

- Literature Matrix Template: templates/literature-matrix.md
Hard Rules
- Zero Citation Fabrication: Never fabricate citations, authors, publication years, or venue tiers.
- Abstract Quarantine & No Inferred Contributions: Never infer identification strategies, fixed effects, clustering, or numerical magnitudes from an abstract alone. If only the abstract is accessible, tag the paper
[Abstract-Only Provisional], preface statements with "Author claims in abstract (unverified): ...", and mark empirical design fields as unverified. Abstract-only papers cannot establish definitive literature ownership or declare research gaps settled. - Dynamic Working Paper Integration: Never automatically dump working papers into a bottom tier. Tier working papers into Tier 1 (NBER, CEPR, Central Banks, Top 3/5 R&Rs, AFA/WFA/NBER SI), Tier 2, and Tier 3. On frontier topics, Tier 1 working papers sit co-equal with Top 3 publications for mechanisms and current evidence.
- Publication Status Verification: Check whether older working papers have been published in peer-reviewed journals.
- Empirical Rigor: Explicitly extract the specific policy shock/exogenous variation, datasets (Compustat, CRSP, Dealscan, Call Reports, etc.), fixed effects, and identification limitations.
- Synthesize by Mechanism & Lineage: Structure syntheses by economic transmission channel and intellectual lineage, never simple author chronologies. Record both what a paper established and its boundary conditions (what it left open).
- State Evidence Limits Transparently: If evidence is provisional or only abstracts/preprints are available, state that directly.
What ships with it
6 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

finance-literature-review is a skill published in the GitHub repository azazhang/finance-literature-review-skill (1 stars, last pushed 27d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 149 tokens to every session and 1,942 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
