ci-topic-selection
100 / 100 · Low risk
Fine to try.
Use when deciding whether a project fits Critical Inquiry (CI) and which format to target. CI is the leading interdisciplinary journal of criticism and theory in the arts and humanities, associated with no single school and tied to no single discipline; the test is a theoretical intervention with stakes beyond one field, not subfield novelty or a competent close reading alone. Helps frame the project; it does not gather sources.
What this skill can do
We found nothing in the files we read that matches our rules. That does not prove the skill is safe: see the limits of static scanning.
Install
Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'ci-topic-selection' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'ci-topic-selection' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named ci-topic-selection already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/franklee16/academic-research-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '9a4b2db21fc4b217136ae4a0e6faad42d179ca03' -- 'Awesome-Journal-Skills-main/Critical-Inquiry-Skills/skills/ci-topic-selection' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'Awesome-Journal-Skills-main/Critical-Inquiry-Skills/skills/ci-topic-selection' ~/.agents/skills/'ci-topic-selection' && rm -rf "$d"; fi
Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'ci-topic-selection' ~/.claude/skills/'ci-topic-selection' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
