paper-rebuttal

paper-rebuttal is a skill for Claude Code from CamusGIT/EvoQuant. It costs 127 tokens per session (2,093 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of paper-rebuttal, Apache-2.0.

A method for writing responses to peer-review comments on an academic paper. It helps diagnose which concerns affect reviewers' scores and organise focused replies.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to analyse reviewer feedback, identify the concerns blocking acceptance, plan revisions, and write a targeted rebuttal.
Why use it?
It prevents authors from treating every comment as equally important and helps direct revisions toward the issues most likely to change the decision.

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

paper-rebuttal 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.

Paper Rebuttal

A systematic approach to writing rebuttals after receiving peer review feedback. The goal is not to defend every point — it's to move scores by addressing the concerns that actually drive them.

When to Use This Skill

  • User received reviewer comments and needs to write a rebuttal
  • User asks how to respond to specific reviewer criticism
  • User wants to analyze reviews strategically before responding
  • User mentions "rebuttal", "reviewer comments", "review feedback", "respond to reviewers"

For pre-submission self-review and catching weaknesses before they become reviewer complaints, use the paper-review skill.

Step 1: Diagnose Reviews

Before writing a single word, answer: "Why did this reviewer give this exact score?" Not what they wrote — what drove the score. Most researchers skip this and address every comment equally. That is a mistake.

Score Diagnosis

For each reviewer, ask: "What would move this reviewer from their current score to acceptance?"

Score Range Typical Situation Your Strategy
7+ Already your champion Arm them with ammunition for the discussion phase
5-6 On the fence, 1-2 concerns holding them back Identify and resolve those specific concerns
3-4 Fundamental objection Determine if the objection is addressable; if not, focus elsewhere

Color-Code Every Comment

Read through each review and mark every comment:

Color Meaning Action Budget
Red Score-driving concern — this is why the score is low Address first, maximum effort and evidence 60%
Orange Addressable concern — can be resolved Respond with concrete data or revision 30%
Gray Minor or cosmetic Acknowledge briefly, confirm fix 10%
Green Positive comment or praise Note as ammunition for your champion

Identify the Invisible Question

Behind every reviewer comment is an unspoken question. A comment like "The baselines are outdated" really asks: "Is this method actually competitive with current approaches?" Address the invisible question, not just the surface request.

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.
