Research Claude Skills
2 269 research skills from 396 authors. They find sources and get you up to speed on unfamiliar ground. Half of them fit into 2 278 tokens or less — that is what one costs your context window when the agent loads it. 663 ship runnable scripts rather than instructions alone. 4 of them cannot work without an MCP server, most often rube. We also found 264 copies of these same skills sitting in other people's repositories — counted once here, not 264 times.

> Audit a finance paper against Alex Edmans' "Learnings From 1,000 Rejections" Exposition. Reads the paper's current LaTeX, applies the framework with per-research-question execution checks, and generates a structured report with severity-labeled findings. Use when the user says "edmans audit", "audit my paper", "run the Edmans check", "referee readiness", "submission audit", "check paper against Edmans", or "pre-submission check".
> Two-phase code audit workflow for empirical research scripts. Use this skill when the user asks to review, audit, check, validate, or verify R or Python research code — especially code that processes licensed or sensitive data (WRDS, CRSP, WellDatabase, PLIDA). Also use when the user says "check my code", "review this script", "does this look right", or "audit my analysis."
> Digital pinboard for quick project notes, reminders, and ideas. Use this skill when the user wants to jot down a note, reminder, to-do, paper to read, idea, or data issue — including phrases like "pin this", "note to self", "remind me to", "add to pinboard", "I need to remember to", "check out this paper", "look into this later", "jot this down", "don't let me forget", or any quick note the user wants saved for later. Also use when the user says "show my pinboard", "what's on my pinboard", "mark X as done", or "clear my pinboard."
> Seven-audit editorial review protocol for academic finance working papers. Use this skill when the user asks to review, edit, audit, or critique a working paper, manuscript, or draft — including "run The Editor", "review my paper", "audit this draft", "check if this is ready for submission", "what would Referee 2 say", or any request to evaluate a paper for journal submission. Also use when the user mentions R&R, revise and resubmit, or responding to referee reports.

Systematic research methodology for building comprehensive, current knowledge on any topic. Requires web_search tool. Use when questions require thorough investigation, recent developments post-cutoff, synthesis across multiple sources, or when Claude's knowledge may be outdated or incomplete. Triggered by "Research", "Investigate", "What's current on", "Latest info on", complex queries needing validation, or technical topics with recent changes.

Compose one publication-grade multi-panel figure. Entry from a one-line claim + data refs, OR from an existing figure via `derive_outline(png)`. Runs a per-figure loop: outline (12-col grid, per-panel ask + label_budget) → fan-out one sub-agent per panel (each loads `figure-style`) → tile + stamp letters → adversarial composite review with two-tier feedback (Tier-1 outline_revisions / Tier-2 per-panel violations) → regen affected panels, ≤3 rounds. Loads panel_task / compose_figure / compose_crops / composite_review_task / derive_outline into the kernel. For one standalone plot use `figure-style`; for whole-paper figure ordering use `paper-narrative`.
Find, verify, and synthesize scientific literature — from "what's the seminal paper for X" through full multi-source reviews. Covers grounding claims in real retrieved sources, avoiding fabricated citations, handling retractions, and calibrating confidence to evidence strength.
Judge and reshape the STORY a paper's figures tell. Input is the work itself — manuscript (or abstract) + figure deck — no hand-written brief. `derive_paper_brief(abstract, captions)` extracts pitch/vision/per-figure-claims; a handling-editor reviewer on the full deck returns hook_verdict (would Fig 1 make me send this for review?), arc (hook→mechanism→evidence→application), figure_moves (panels in the wrong figure), missing_panels (concrete analyses to RUN), kill_list, and boldest_defensible_fig1. Hands per-figure claims to `figure-composer`. Load when writing or revising a paper.
