Write or revise the literature review / related-literature section of an empirical paper (finance, economics, accounting), positioning the paper's contribution against prior work. Use whenever the user asks to write, draft, restructure, or fix a literature review section; organize a .bib file or pile of papers into themed synthesis; respond to reviewer complaints like "reads like a list," "missing literature," "weak positioning," or "insufficient contribution"; convert paper-by-paper paragraphs…

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/'write-literature-review' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'write-literature-review' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named write-literature-review 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 "$d" checkout --quiet '9a4b2db21fc4b217136ae4a0e6faad42d179ca03' -- 'paper-writing/write-literature-review' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'paper-writing/write-literature-review' ~/.agents/skills/'write-literature-review' && 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/'write-literature-review' ~/.claude/skills/'write-literature-review' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
