CCFA Skills is a family of agent skills that helps researchers develop the storyline and presentation of CCF-A research papers. It supports work across research ideas, literature, experiments, writing, figures, reviews, rebuttals, and submission while keeping the argument connected. The catalogue entry consists of the project's research-writing skills and plugin.
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.

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 | $0.00071 | $0.01345 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00036 | $0.00673 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00014 | $0.00269 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00135 |
Grade A, and why
ccf-literature-monitor 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 6d 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 — 99 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
CCF Literature Monitor
Core Rule
Monitor arXiv, OpenReview, conference/proceedings feeds, project pages, labs, and named competitors for new papers that could overlap with the user's idea or paper. Report findings factually. Do not exaggerate novelty threats, dismiss real overlap, or infer priority from weak evidence. Provide actionable signals: RELAX, RESEARCH, FOLLOW-UP.
Modes
arxiv-watch: scan recent papers in target categories or keyword clusters.venue-watch: scan OpenReview, proceedings, accepted-paper lists, or official venue pages.novelty-check: compare a given idea with recent papers and flag overlap.trend-scouting: summarize emerging directions, crowded areas, and under-tested gaps.competitor-tracking: monitor named research groups, labs, repositories, datasets, benchmarks, or authors.paper-alert-digest: produce a recurring watch report suitable for saving into a project folder.

Invocation Controls
CCFA Handoff Mode: PARTIAL (Recommended). Follow metadata.ccf_skill_controls.handoff_question_mode and ../ccf-common/references/handoff-modes.md.
Load ../ccf-common/references/task-modes.md before deciding exploratory, quick, or standard mode.
Treat unpublished ideas, draft abstracts, methods, and results as private material. Load ../ccf-common/references/privacy-and-evidence.md before using private text in queries. Use public-safe keywords, public method names, venue names, and user-approved query text.
Load ../ccf-common/references/review-output-standards.md when monitor results feed idea scoring, paper review, or score-risk language.
What ships with it
3 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.

ccf-literature-monitor is a skill published in the GitHub repository mikubaka88/CCFA-Skills (2,422 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 71 tokens to every session and 1,345 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-30.
