Skills 7 in the Claude listing
Categorize papers Build a two-level taxonomy for the included papers of a literature review and have subagents write summaries, research-question relations, categories and reading priorities for each paper. Database search Run boolean keyword searches for a literature review across scholarly databases (OpenAlex, Semantic Scholar, arXiv) and merge the results with deduplication. Export sheet Export a literature review to a styled, categorized Google Sheet (via Composio's Google Sheets tools) and an Excel file - grouped category rows, color-coded status and priority, reading-status dropdow Screen papers Filter and screen literature-review candidates - apply deterministic filters (year, language, type, citations, keywords) and then title/abstract screening by parallel subagents that label each paper c Seed search Start a literature review - set up the review (topic, research questions, inclusion/exclusion criteria) and find an initial set of seed papers via Semantic Scholar queries and known DOIs/arXiv ids. setup Check or set up LR-AI, the literature-review plugin - run its doctor (Python packages, API reachability, API keys), install its Python dependencies, and explain the optional API keys. snowball Forward and backward citation snowballing for a literature review - collect the references of each paper and the papers that cite it (via OpenAlex, falling back to Semantic Scholar), for one or more r
