Claude Scholar is a semi-automated research assistant for academic research and software development, supporting literature review, coding, experiments, reporting, writing, and project knowledge management. Computer science and AI researchers use it across the research workflow with several coding-agent platforms; the catalogue contains its skills, commands, agents, hooks, plugin, and instruction.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

SkillSpector: 3 findings, up to high
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →
- high Tool Misuse · line 434 Tool parameters are crafted to achieve unintended or unsafe behavior. Parameter abuse can bypass intended safety checks (e.g. shell=True, --force, dangerous glob patterns).Fix: Validate all tool parameters against an allowlist. Reject dangerous parameter values (shell=True, --force, -rf /) and use safe defaults.

Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.
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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00054 | $0.03535 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00027 | $0.01767 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00707 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00353 |
Grade C, and why
latex-conference-template-organizer scanned grade C 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 13d 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.
Recursive force deletehighDestructive command
rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

LaTeX Conference Template Organizer
Overview
Transform messy conference LaTeX template .zip files into clean, Overleaf-ready submission templates. Official conference templates often contain excessive example content, instructional comments, and disorganized file structures. This skill converts them into templates ready for writing.
Working Mode
Analyze-then-confirm mode: First analyze issues and present them to the user, then execute cleanup after confirmation.
Complete Workflow
Receive .zip file
↓
1. Extract and analyze file structure
↓
2. Identify main file and dependencies
↓
3. Diagnose issues (present to user)
↓
4. Ask for conference info (link/name)
↓
5. Wait for user confirmation of cleanup plan
↓
6. Execute cleanup, create output directory
↓
7. Generate README (with official website info)
↓
8. Output complete
Step 1: Extract and Analyze
Extract Files
Extract .zip to a temporary directory:
unzip -q template.zip -d /tmp/latex-template-temp
cd /tmp/latex-template-temp
find . -type f -name "*.tex" -o -name "*.sty" -o -name "*.cls" -o -name "*.bib"
Identify File Types
| File Type | Purpose |
|---|---|
.tex |
LaTeX source files |
.sty / .cls |
Style files |
.bib |
Bibliography database |
.pdf / .png / .jpg |
Image files |
Identify Main File
Common main file names:
main.texpaper.texdocument.texsample-sigconf.textemplate.tex
Identification methods:
- Check if filename matches common patterns
- Search for files containing
\documentclass - If multiple candidates exist, ask user to confirm
# Find files containing \documentclass
grep -l "\\documentclass" *.tex
Step 2: Diagnose Issues
Present discovered issues to the user:
Disorganized File Structure
- Multi-level directory nesting
- .tex files scattered across directories
- Unclear which file is the main file
Redundant Content
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.

latex-conference-template-organizer is a skill published in the GitHub repository Galaxy-Dawn/claude-scholar (5,431 stars, last pushed 16d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 54 tokens to every session and 3,535 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 1 finding (recursive force delete). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
