AutoSci is an AI research platform organized around a wiki, with an agent that supports stages of scientific work such as reading, experimentation, writing, and retaining knowledge across projects. It is for people building or using AI-assisted research workflows, with Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode adaptations available. The catalogue add-ons extend those agent-specific workflows.

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 | $0.00029 | $0.04171 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00012 | $0.01668 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00834 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00417 |
Grade A, and why
paper-plan 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 2mo 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 — 400 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
/paper-plan
Compile a paper outline from the wiki's idea graph. Input target ideas (status: validated or in-progress with succeeded experiments), specify the target venue, compile an evidence map from the wiki → determine narrative structure → generate a section outline + figure plan + citation plan. Review LLM review is a mandatory step (acting as area chair to assess outline persuasiveness). Output PAPER_PLAN.md to wiki/outputs/.
Key distinction: the outline is idea-graph-driven — each section exists because it supports an idea (or its evidence/methods), not because paper convention requires that section.
Inputs
ideas: list of target idea slugs (space-separated)- each idea should have
status: validatedor bein_progresswith at least onesucceededexperiment - if
proposedorinvalidatedideas are included, warn but continue
- each idea should have
--venue(required): target venue, determines page limit and format requirements- supported:
ICLR/NeurIPS/ICML/ACL/CVPR/IEEE
- supported:
--title(optional): working title; if omitted, generated from target ideas
Outputs
wiki/outputs/paper-plan-{slug}-{date}.md— complete paper plan (PAPER_PLAN.md)wiki/graph/edges.jsonl— new derived_from edges (plan → source ideas/papers)wiki/graph/context_brief.md— rebuiltwiki/log.md— appended log entry- PAPER_PLAN_REPORT (printed to terminal) — plan summary

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.

paper-plan is a skill published in the GitHub repository skyllwt/AutoSci (1,706 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 29 tokens to every session and 4,171 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
