ppw:repo-to-paper

ppw:repo-to-paper is a skill for Claude Code from Lylll9436/Paper-Polish-Workflow-skill. It costs 98 tokens per session (5,346 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A research-writing workflow that scans a Python machine-learning experiment repository and builds an academic paper outline, then drafts the paper text.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create paper sections from completed experiments, add evidence notes and citations, and produce the text in two languages.
Why use it?
It turns scattered experiment code and results into an organized paper structure, while letting you approve each outline level before it continues.

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

ppw:repo-to-paper 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 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.

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 — 461 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Purpose

This Skill scans a Python ML experiment repository and generates a hierarchical paper outline (H1/H2/H3) with user approval checkpoints at each heading level. It serves researchers who have completed experiments and need to structure findings into an academic paper. The scan categorizes repo files using patterns from references/repo-patterns.md, then progressively generates headings from coarse (sections) to fine (sub-subsections), with the user confirming or modifying each level before proceeding. After H2 confirmation, the Skill automatically collects academic references via Semantic Scholar MCP and saves them as per-section ref files for downstream body generation.

Trigger

Activates when the user asks to:

  • Generate a paper structure, outline, or skeleton from a repository or codebase
  • Scan a project and create paper sections from experiment code or results
  • 从实验仓库/代码仓库生成论文大纲或论文结构

Example invocations:

  • "Generate a paper outline from my repo"
  • "帮我从实验仓库生成论文大纲"
  • "Scan my project and create paper structure"
  • "把我的代码仓库转成论文框架"

Modes

Mode Default Behavior
guided Yes Full 5-step workflow with confirmation at each heading level and section-by-section body generation
direct Not supported -- outline generation inherently requires user validation at each level
batch Not supported -- each repo requires unique analysis

Default mode: guided. The layered confirmation design is central to this Skill.

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.
