What is research-paper-writing?

A workflow for producing machine-learning research papers for conferences such as NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, AAAI, and COLM. It covers experiments, analysis, writing, review, revision, and submission.

Use it to plan experiments, run and monitor them, analyze results, draft a paper, check its quality, revise it, and prepare a submission.

It organizes the repeated cycle between experiments, results, paper drafts, and reviewer feedback. This helps keep research work and paper changes connected.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00022	$0.24648
Opus 5	$0.00011	$0.12324

Security

Grade D, and why

research-paper-writing scanned grade D with 3 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 9d 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.

Hidden instructionshighPrompt injection

Directives inside HTML comments, invisible characters or bidirectional overrides are read by the model and not by the person reviewing the file.

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

Research Paper Writing Pipeline

End-to-end pipeline for producing publication-ready ML/AI research papers targeting NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, AAAI, and COLM. This skill covers the full research lifecycle: experiment design, execution, monitoring, analysis, paper writing, review, revision, and submission.

This is not a linear pipeline — it is an iterative loop. Results trigger new experiments. Reviews trigger new analysis. The agent must handle these feedback loops.
