paper-writer

paper-writer is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from whoisraibolt/paper-skills. It costs 109 tokens per session (2,825 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A structured drafting assistant for scientific manuscripts. It divides unfinished work into sections and writes grounded drafts using the full manuscript and the project's declared sources and writing style.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to draft missing parts of a research paper while preserving the project's voice and evidence. It supports segmented writing and later consolidation into a coherent manuscript.
Why use it?
It reduces inconsistencies between separately written sections and makes numerical claims traceable to project materials. The output is a draft for the author to review, not publication-ready text.

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

paper-writer 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 24d 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 — 140 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

paper-writer — redação segmentada com fundamentação obrigatória

Espelha a arquitetura do paper-reviewer (Paper Assistant Tool, Jayaram et al., Google Research, arXiv:2606.28277), mas para o lado da escrita em vez da crítica: segmentar o que falta escrever, dar a cada redator o manuscrito inteiro como contexto de voz e consistência, mas só um segmento como alvo de redação, e consolidar depois. A mesma lógica que eleva a taxa de detecção de erro no PAT — atenção concentrada em vez de uma passada rasa e uniforme — vale para produzir prosa consistente em vez de um rascunho genérico.

Não produz texto pronto pra publicar. Produz rascunho fundamentado, com toda alegação numérica rastreável a um artefato declarado, na voz definida pelo projeto — para o autor revisar e aprovar frase por frase. Diferente do paper-reviewer (só lê, nunca edita), esta skill escreve — por isso a disciplina de fundamentação abaixo é mais rígida, não mais frouxa: aqui uma alucinação vira afirmação falsa dentro do artigo, não um apontamento perdido num relatório.


Configuração do projeto — obrigatória, antes de qualquer coisa

Esta skill não escreve uma frase até saber de onde os números podem vir. Procure o arquivo de configuração nesta ordem:

  1. .claude/paper-writer.md na raiz do projeto
  2. paper-writer.config.md na raiz do projeto
  3. o caminho que o usuário indicar

Se não existir nenhum, crie o arquivo, pare e peça. Leia references/project-config.template.md e grave o conteúdo dele em .claude/paper-writer.md, na raiz do projeto. Esse caminho do template é relativo ao diretório onde está este SKILL.md, não ao projeto do usuário: quem lê é você, e o usuário não precisa copiar nada nem saber onde a skill está instalada. Se o template não puder ser lido, crie o arquivo com uma seção vazia para cada um dos quatro blocos da tabela abaixo, mais os caminhos do manuscrito, da bibliografia e do diretório de rascunhos, e avise que ele foi montado sem o template.

What ships with it

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.
