paper-agent: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/ai-detector/SKILL.md

ai-detector is a skill for Claude Code from Guo-Chenxu/paper-agent. It costs 156 tokens per session (1,625 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A writing checker that looks for patterns commonly associated with AI-generated text and suggests specific rewrites. It cannot prove who wrote something.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review essays, articles, or other writing and make passages sound more natural and personal.
Why use it?
It helps identify wording that sounds repetitive, generic, or robotic before you submit or publish it.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: user-invocable in frontmatter.

This is Guo-Chenxu/paper-agent's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on paper-agent itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything paper-agent configures →

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

ai-detector 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 2mo 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.

AI Detector Skill

This skill analyzes text for AI-generated writing patterns and gives concrete suggestions to make it sound more human.

The goal isn't just to flag problems — it's to help the writer understand why certain passages feel robotic and how to fix them specifically.

Reference Material

Primary reference: references/ai_writing_patterns.md Project writing-pattern reference: .claude/rules/writing-patterns.md Source: https://www.aicheckr.io/blog/spotting-ai-writing-patterns

When analyzing academic text, read .claude/rules/writing-patterns.md before every analysis so reusable project-specific writing issues are included. For general AI-pattern checks, first try fetching the live URL above for the latest content. If unreachable, use the patterns documented below.

No single pattern definitively proves AI authorship. A cluster of these signals together is what matters.


Pattern 1: Overused "AI Vocabulary"

AI models repeatedly reach for the same elevated words:

  • Verbs: delve, illuminate, underscore, leverage, navigate, foster, embark
  • Adjectives: pivotal, nuanced, multifaceted, comprehensive, robust, seamless
  • Nouns: landscape, realm, tapestry, synergy, paradigm

Human writers vary their word choice more naturally and use plainer language.

Fix: Replace with simpler, more direct synonyms; vary word choice across the document.


Pattern 2: Em Dash Overuse

AI strongly prefers em dashes (—) over semicolons, colons, or subordinate clauses. A paragraph with 3+ em dashes is a yellow flag.

Fix: Rewrite as subordinate clauses or split into two sentences.


Pattern 3: Uniform Sentence Structure

AI mixes sentence lengths in a mechanical way — short, medium, long, repeat — rather than letting rhythm emerge from meaning. Human prose has more irregular cadence.

Fix: Vary sentence length deliberately; add a very short sentence for punch.


Pattern 4: American English Spelling

AI defaults to American English (e.g., "analyze" not "analyse", "color" not "colour") regardless of the author's locale.

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.
