What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'paper-navigator' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'paper-navigator' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named paper-navigator already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/BioTender-max/awesome-bio-agent-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '8cbdd18837aa6296c4e77616a03b323bd69b57b1' -- 'skills/evoskills/paper-navigator' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/evoskills/paper-navigator' ~/.agents/skills/'paper-navigator' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'paper-navigator' ~/.claude/skills/'paper-navigator' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
