paperlab-derivation-symbolic-checking

paperlab-derivation-symbolic-checking is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from equinor/neqsim. It costs 36 tokens per session (346 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of paperlab_derivation_symbolic_checking, Apache-2.0.

A mathematical-derivation review that checks assumptions, units, symbols, simple limiting cases, and links between formulas and code or tests. A limiting case checks whether a formula behaves correctly in a simpler situation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review new equations, algorithms, Jacobians, residuals, and thermodynamic identities in papers or technical books.
Why use it?
It finds hidden assumptions, inconsistent notation, dimension errors, incorrect special cases, and missing evidence that an implemented method matches its derivation.

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

paperlab-derivation-symbolic-checking 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 27d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to paperlab_derivation_symbolic_checking — 2 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

PaperLab Derivation Symbolic Checking

When to Use

USE WHEN: a paper or book includes a new method, equation derivation, algorithm description, Jacobian, residual formulation, or thermodynamic identity.

Audit Dimensions

Dimension Questions
Assumptions Are phase, EOS, ideality, and differentiability assumptions explicit?
Units Are both sides dimensionally consistent?
Symbols Are symbols defined once and reused consistently?
Limiting cases Does the equation reduce correctly for simple or ideal cases?
Code linkage Is there a Java method, notebook, or test implementing the equation?

Output Schema

{
  "equations": [
    {
      "label": "residual_jacobian",
      "status": "needs_fix",
      "issues": ["symbol J reused for flux and Jacobian"],
      "limiting_cases_checked": ["ideal gas", "zero association"],
      "implementation_link": "neqsim.package.Class#method"
    }
  ]
}

Pass Criteria

  • Each derivation states assumptions.
  • Units and symbols are consistent.
  • At least one limiting case or reference comparison is described.
  • Implementation or test linkage exists for computational methods.

Safety Rules

  • Do not present dimensional consistency as mathematical proof.
  • If symbolic algebra cannot be run, state that the review is manual.
  • Keep corrections minimal and tied to the manuscript text.
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.
