ieee-paper-reader

ieee-paper-reader is a skill for Codex from CloudWave818/ieee-skills. It costs 80 tokens per session (476 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A reading guide for IEEE-style research papers, which are technical papers published by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. It turns a paper into a structured brief covering its problem, method, evidence, and limits.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for literature reviews, implementation planning, replication, reviewer assessment, citation decisions, or quick paper summaries.
Why use it?
It helps you understand a technical paper systematically instead of producing only a general summary. It also marks information that is missing when you provide only part of a paper.

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

ieee-paper-reader 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.

What it actually says

IEEE Paper Reader Router

Use this skill to turn an IEEE paper into a structured technical brief. Focus on contribution logic, method mechanics, evidence, and reuse value.

Do not provide only a generic summary. Follow the routing protocol and load the selected fragments.

Routing Protocol

  1. Read manifest.yaml.
  2. Read every file listed under always_load.
  3. Detect the axes:
    • reading_purpose: literature-review / implementation / replication / reviewer-assessment / citation-positioning / quick-summary.
    • input_scope: full-paper / abstract-only / introduction-related-work / method-only / experiments-only / figures-tables / excerpt.
    • paper_type: algorithmic / system / hardware / control / communications / signal-processing / survey / general.
    • extraction_focus: contribution / method-pipeline / equations / experiments / limitations / reproducibility / related-work.
    • output_depth: brief / standard / deep.
  4. State the detected axes in one short line.
  5. Load only the matching fragments.
  6. Extract a source-bounded fact base before analysis.
  7. Mark missing information when the input is partial.

Output Contract

Default:

Detected axes: reading_purpose=..., input_scope=..., paper_type=..., extraction_focus=..., output_depth=...

Structured notes
[purpose-specific output]

Limitations / missing information
- ...

For implementation or replication, include a checklist of missing details.

For citation positioning, include how the paper should and should not be cited.

Red Lines

Do not invent paper content, equations, results, datasets, or limitations not present in the supplied material.

Do not overquote source text. Summarize and paraphrase.

If the input is only an abstract or excerpt, keep the assessment bounded.

Files

What ships with it

36 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.

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.
