paper-anonymizer

paper-anonymizer is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from EtaYang10th/spark-skills. It costs 0 tokens per session (6,771 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

A workflow for removing identifying details from academic papers in PDF files before double-blind review, where reviewers should not know the authors’ identities.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find and redact author names, affiliations, email addresses, paper identifiers, venue information, and other identifying text in research PDFs.
Why use it?
It helps prevent author and institution details from revealing who wrote a submission. It covers less obvious identifiers such as arXiv IDs, DOIs, conference headers, and named acknowledgments.

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-anonymizer scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 12d 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.

Runs shell commandslowCapability

Expected in a hook, worth knowing in a rule or an instructions file.

What ships with it

2 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.
