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 | $0.00044 | $0.00990 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00022 | $0.00495 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00198 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00099 |
Grade A, and why
research-architect-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 12d 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 — 86 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Research Architect Literature and Exemplar Analysis
Use two passes when target references exist; otherwise use the positioning pass after brainstorming. Explain how a paper works without reproducing its source-specific content.
Shared resources and canonical outputs
Read ../research-architect/references/literature-map-framework.md. Use these installed-suite templates only as column or structure contracts:
../research-architect/templates/exemplar_logic_profile.md
../research-architect/templates/exemplar_adaptation_plan.md
../research-architect/templates/corpus_inventory.csv
../research-architect/templates/gap_map.csv
../research-architect/templates/motivation_options_after_literature.md
Write tabular outputs as Markdown in paper_output/, including gap_map.md for the literature gap artifact.
For a final adaptation plan, create
paper_output/exemplar_adaptation_plan.md.metadata.json following
../research-architect/schemas/v1/exemplar_adaptation_plan.schema.json.
Pass 1 — Target-reference analysis
Read:
paper_output/project_config.json
paper_output/source_inventory.md
paper_output/terminology_ledger.md # when present
accessible target-reference full text
Create:
paper_output/exemplar_logic_profile.md
paper_output/exemplar_adaptation_plan.md # preliminary
Extract the research object/tension, theory, question move, contribution, selection, evidence, analysis, comparison or warrant, validity, display/rhetorical sequence, limitations, context-bound assumptions, transferable strengths, and copying boundaries. Explain why each load-bearing move works.
Unreadable-reference rule
Do not profile a target paper from memory, a title, or an abstract alone. If full text cannot be read, stop this pass, report the inaccessible source, and request the file. With explicit user consent, provide only metadata-level orientation marked provisional: full text not accessed; it cannot satisfy adaptation approval.
What ships with it
1 file 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-architect-literature is a skill published in the GitHub repository mmTheBest/Research-Architect (68 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 44 tokens to every session and 990 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
