academic-paper-strategist

academic-paper-strategist is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Natsummerance/readMD. It costs 0 tokens per session (5,001 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of academic-paper-strategist, MIT.

A planning framework for developing philosophy or interdisciplinary papers for preprint platforms, which let researchers share papers before formal publication.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to study suitable venues, find research gaps, design an outline, prepare for submission, and review the paper from a reader’s perspective.
Why use it?
It helps turn an early research idea into a structured paper plan while considering the target platform, existing research, originality, and reader expectations.

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

academic-paper-strategist 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 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/evaluate_samples.py, scripts/gap_analysis.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Academic Paper Strategist

Overview

This skill provides a systematic framework for strategic planning of academic papers in philosophy and interdisciplinary research. It guides you through three phases—from platform selection to optimized outline—with AI-driven literature search, research gap identification, originality assessment, and quality-controlled outline design.

Output: A detailed, review-ready paper outline with supporting documentation (platform style guide, literature review, gap analysis, reviewer assessment).

Companion Skill: Use academic-paper-composer to execute the outline and write the full paper.


When to Use This Skill

Use academic-paper-strategist when you need to:

Planning Stage:

  • Design a research paper from initial idea to structured outline
  • Identify a suitable publication platform (PhilArchive, arXiv, etc.)
  • Understand writing standards for a specific preprint platform

Research Stage:

  • Conduct systematic literature search
  • Identify research gaps with evidence
  • Assess originality of your research idea
  • Predict potential impact

Design Stage:

  • Structure paper chapters and arguments
  • Optimize outline from reviewer perspective
  • Prepare submission-ready strategy

Triggers:

  • "Plan a paper on [topic]"
  • "Help me design a paper about [subject]"
  • "Identify research gaps in [field]"
  • "Is this idea original?"
  • "What platform should I submit to?"

Workflow Overview

Phase 1: PLATFORM ANALYSIS (Target Selection + Style Learning)
    ↓
Phase 2: THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK (AI-Driven Gap Identification)
    ↓
Phase 3: OUTLINE OPTIMIZATION (Quality-Controlled Design)
    ↓
Output: Detailed Outline + Supporting Documentation

Quality Gates: 3 validation checkpoints ensure each phase meets standards before proceeding.


Phase 1: Platform Analysis

Goal

Identify the optimal submission platform and understand its writing standards through systematic sample paper analysis.

Changes

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.
