| name | researchcritic |
| description | Universal scientific literature critical analysis and survey-generation workflow. Use when a user asks to analyze academic papers, critique research claims, audit experiments, compare papers, generate literature reviews, create related-work sections, or plan early-stage research from papers. The skill enforces a background-first research frame, reviewer-grade evidence criticism, paper memory cards, and cross-paper survey synthesis. |
ResearchCritic
Use ResearchCritic to perform rigorous scientific paper analysis and literature survey generation.
Required Workflow
- Establish a fixed research frame before formal analysis:
- field
- core scientific question
- scenario characteristics
- analysis goal
- If the user has not provided this frame, ask for it first.
- If the user explicitly requests generic review, create a temporary generic frame and label the output as generic.
- For a single paper, produce a critical Markdown report using the template in
prompts/single_paper_template.zh.md.
- After each analysis, record a paper memory card with title, problem, method, evidence, strengths, weaknesses, unresolved questions, relevance, and confidence.
- For a literature survey, synthesize across all paper memory cards using the template in
prompts/literature_survey_template.zh.md.
Core Standard
Do not summarize papers superficially. Audit whether the paper actually proves what it claims. Check:
- problem definition
- contribution novelty and necessity
- experimental validity
- baseline fairness
- metric alignment
- ablation sufficiency
- statistical reliability
- reproducibility
- limitation severity
- relevance to the user's research frame
