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/'paper-taste' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'paper-taste' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named paper-taste 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 "$d" checkout --quiet '9a4b2db21fc4b217136ae4a0e6faad42d179ca03' -- 'paper-writing/paper-taste' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'paper-writing/paper-taste' ~/.agents/skills/'paper-taste' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

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