literature-review-synthesis

literature-review-synthesis is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from BingHanOfUESTC/open_agent_team. It costs 0 tokens per session (49 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A research method for comparing academic papers in a structured matrix. It focuses on how studies relate to one another and where gaps remain, rather than summarising each paper separately.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps organise literature reviews and write comparisons, research gaps, and links between earlier work and a new study.
Why use it?
It makes related-work writing easier to compare and less like a list of paper summaries. It helps reveal differences in problems, methods, evidence, assumptions, and limitations.

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

literature-review-synthesis 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 9d 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.

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.
