.claude/skills/topics/SKILL.md

topics is a skill for Claude Code from ZimoLiao/scholaraio. It costs 33 tokens per session (553 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A research-topic exploration workflow based on BERTopic, a method that groups documents by related language and themes. It provides topic summaries, topic papers, merges, reductions, and HTML visualizations.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps build or rebuild topic groups, view papers in a topic, inspect outliers, merge related topics, reduce the number of topics, and create visual charts.
Why use it?
It helps reveal how subjects are distributed in a paper library and makes related or overlapping research areas easier to inspect.

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/.

This is ZimoLiao/scholaraio's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on scholaraio 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 scholaraio configures →

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

topics 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 10d 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.

What it actually says

主题探索

探索论文库的主题分布,发现跨领域关联。基于 BERTopic 聚类。

执行逻辑

  1. 判断用户意图:

    • "建模"、"重建主题" → 构建/重建
    • "合并主题"、"压缩到N个" → 智能合并
    • "可视化"、"画图" → 生成 HTML
    • 查看某主题详情 → 主题查询
    • 查看 outlier → topic -1
    • 默认展示概览
  2. 执行命令:

构建/重建主题模型:

scholaraio topics --build
scholaraio topics --rebuild [--min-topic-size N] [--nr-topics N]

手动合并指定主题(格式: 逗号分隔同组ID,+分隔不同组):

scholaraio topics --merge "1,6,14+3,5"

算法合并到 N 个主题:

scholaraio topics --reduce <N>

查看主题概览:

scholaraio topics

查看指定主题的论文:

scholaraio topics --topic <ID> [--limit N]

生成 HTML 可视化(6 张图表):

scholaraio topics --viz
  1. 智能合并流程(当用户要求合并/压缩主题时): a. 先执行 topics 获取所有主题概览 b. 分析每个主题的关键词,判断哪些主题在学术上属于同一研究方向 c. 生成合并方案 d. 用 --merge 执行合并

示例

用户说:"帮我看看库里的主题分布" → 执行 topics

用户说:"主题2里有哪些论文" → 执行 topics --topic 2

用户说:"帮我把相似的主题合并一下" → 先 topics 查看概览,分析关键词,再 topics --merge "1,6,14+3,5"

用户说:"给我画个主题分布图" → 执行 topics --viz

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.
