latex-paper-skills: Skill for Codex

.codex/skills/collaborating-with-gemini/SKILL.md

collaborating-with-gemini is a skill for Codex from yunshenwuchuxun/latex-paper-skills. It costs 54 tokens per session (1,103 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A research helper that uses the Gemini command-line tool to broaden early exploration for a research paper. It suggests related research areas, keyword groups, alternative ways to frame a contribution, and possible literature directions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to expand a candidate reading list, find broader search directions, propose alternative research framings, or support general code collaboration when needed.
Why use it?
It helps reveal adjacent work and fill gaps before the research question, evidence collection, or paper structure is finalized.

Skill for Codex

Written for Codex: installed under .codex/. Also seen: mentions Codex; mentions Gemini CLI.

This is yunshenwuchuxun/latex-paper-skills's own configuration. It tells Codex how to work on latex-paper-skills itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything latex-paper-skills configures →

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is `../../_shared/collaboration-base.md` (core rules, candidates-only.

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

collaborating-with-gemini 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 13d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/gemini_bridge.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.

Collaborating with Gemini (Codex)

Use Gemini CLI as a breadth-exploration collaborator for paper-from-zero, or as a generic code collaborator in fallback mode.

This skill provides a lightweight bridge script that returns structured JSON and supports multi-turn sessions via SESSION_ID.

Shared rules: This skill inherits all shared rules from ../../_shared/collaboration-base.md (core rules, candidates-only constraint, fallback code-collaboration mode, safety guardrails, and collaboration state capsule format). Only Gemini-specific additions are listed below.

When to Use

  • paper-from-zero needs to expand the candidate literature pool.
  • topic-brief initial draft exists but adjacent research areas are uncovered.
  • contribution-map needs 3-5 alternative framing candidates.
  • evidence-matrix has coverage gaps that need broader search directions.
  • Fallback: generic code collaboration tasks (analysis, patch, review).

When NOT to Use

  • Claim-level logical analysis or reviewer objection stress tests (use Claude).
  • Final routing judgment between review/empirical (use Claude).
  • Generating ref.bib entries or verified citations.
  • Tasks requiring depth reasoning rather than breadth scanning.

Gemini-Specific Rules

  • Optional: pass --sandbox to run Gemini in sandbox mode.
  • Auth/home notes:
    • The bridge defaults GEMINI_CLI_HOME to a writable repo-local directory (<repo>/.gemini_cli_home/) to avoid Gemini CLI hanging in some runners.
    • If your local gemini is already logged in, reuse that login with --use-user-home.
    • If you have GEMINI_API_KEY set but want to use OAuth creds, add --prefer-oauth to unset API-key env vars for this run.

Quick Start (shell-safe)

If your prompt contains Markdown backticks, use a heredoc; see references/shell-quoting.md.

What ships with it

4 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.

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.
