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.

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 | $0.00045 | $0.00821 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00328 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00164 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00082 |
Grade A, and why
research-writing-literature 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 19d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 43 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Research Writing And Literature
Purpose
Build a research story rather than a sequence of paper summaries. Every paragraph needs a central topic, normally in its first sentence; each later sentence must develop, support, qualify, or transition from it.
When AI is used to draft or substantially revise the document, first use author-guided-ai-writing.md to obtain an author-approved story brief and claim-evidence map. Drafting and line editing do not replace those author decisions.
Before a substantial draft or structural revision, identify the reader, the decision or scientific understanding the section must support, the evidence that carries the central claim, and what the reader should know after the section. Write the structure from that reader-to-evidence path instead of filling a generic manuscript template.
Route To References
- For critical literature synthesis, read
references/literature-review.md. - For journal-paper structure and results-led storytelling, read
references/paper-writing-style.md. - For section-specific technical writing, methods, DOE, and figure discussion, read
references/technical-writing-analysis.md. - For equation explanations, claim-evidence checks, methods completeness, and figure or equation narratives, read
references/technical-argument-audit.mdbefore a final prose-only pass. - For a clarity pass focused on reader understanding rather than formulaic compression, read
references/technical-prose-clarity.md. - When matching the calibrated research style and its evidence boundaries, read
references/han-hu-research-style.md. - For a final pass against formulaic AI-like drafting habits, read
references/anti-formulaic-writing.md.
Introduction And Background
Use the chain: importance and applications; state of the art; remaining issue; why it persists; the proposed innovation; and its likely significance. Do not claim novelty merely because no prior work exists. Identify why the missing work is challenging and how the approach resolves a meaningful barrier.
What ships with it
8 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.

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.

research-writing-literature is a skill published in the GitHub repository hanhuark/mechanical-engineering-research-skill (23 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 45 tokens to every session and 821 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-10.
