Install

Each tab says whether it installs commit 371a40e, the one we checked, or the latest version.

No tab for your agent? Use Any agent for OpenCode, Goose, Windsurf (Devin Desktop), Zed, Roo Code, Factory Droid, Junie, Amp and Antigravity, and Claude Code for Cline. Kiro needs the folder copied by hand.

Pinned to commit 371a40e, the one we checked.

From your project's root folder:

tmp="$(mktemp -d)" &&
  git clone -q --depth 1 --filter=blob:none --no-checkout https://github.com/brycewang-stanford/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills.git "$tmp" &&
  git -C "$tmp" fetch -q --depth 1 origin 371a40e488c5d9e8e75ca2af5dd9667f8349c199 &&
  git -C "$tmp" sparse-checkout set -- skills/11-James-Traina-compound-science/skills/submission-guide &&
  git -C "$tmp" checkout -q 371a40e488c5d9e8e75ca2af5dd9667f8349c199 &&
  mkdir -p .claude/skills &&

What it can touch

From the files and frontmatter at commit 371a40e. This is how much a skill can do, not whether it is risky.

What it can touch: Scripts or outside hosts

  • Runs shell commands

    Its instructions or files give the agent commands to run on your computer.

  • Names web addresses

    It mentions outside web addresses the agent may visit. We list them but don't follow them.

Pattern check

Pattern check: nothing flagged · commit 371a40e · 27 Oct 2026

We checked every text file in this skill, at commit 371a40e on 27 Oct 2026, against 45 published patterns such as download-and-run commands, hidden text and credential access. We don't run the skill, we don't read the web pages it points to, and we can't judge everything its instructions might lead an agent to do. In published tests, pattern checks like this one missed most malicious skills. Read the skill before you install it — especially anything it asks you to download or run.

Format check

Each agent reads SKILL.md a little differently. We check the file against each one's published rules; we don't run the skill in any agent.

  • Agent Skills specPasses with warnings

    The open format from agentskills.io, held to what the strictest agents enforce, so one folder loads everywhere.

    • Warning

      Fields outside the spec: argument-hint (read by Claude Code and VS Code). Uploads to the Claude apps and API, and the spec's validator, reject the file; most agents ignore these fields. O1

      Fix: Delete them for a portable skill, or keep them if you only target the agents that read them.

    • Note

      There is no license field, so readers can't tell whether they may reuse the skill. O2

      Fix: Add license: with an SPDX name such as MIT or Apache-2.0, or the name of a bundled licence file.

    • Note

      Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: references/journal-profiles.md (195 lines) and references/referee-response-templates.md (151 lines). B5

      Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.

  • Claude CodePasses

    Claude Code reads its own extra fields, ignores unknown ones, and still loads a skill whose frontmatter is broken, without its fields.

    • Note

      Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: references/journal-profiles.md (195 lines) and references/referee-response-templates.md (151 lines). B5

      Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.

  • Claude apps & API uploadFails

    Uploading to claude.ai or the Claude API, or packaging with Anthropic's script, accepts only the six spec fields and stops on anything else.

    • Error

      Upload and packaging fail on fields outside the spec: argument-hint. O1

      Fix: Delete them, and keep your own data under metadata as text values.

    • Note

      The description is 411 characters. The claude.ai Help Center says 200 at most, though Anthropic's API docs and validator allow 1,024. D4

      Fix: If the claude.ai upload refuses it, trim the description to 200 characters.

    • Note

      Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: references/journal-profiles.md (195 lines) and references/referee-response-templates.md (151 lines). B5

      Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.

  • OpenAI (Codex & API)Passes with warnings

    Codex finds SKILL.md by its exact name and needs a description; OpenAI's Skills API checks the frontmatter against the spec and caps uploads.

    • Warning

      Fields outside the spec: argument-hint. Codex ignores them; OpenAI doesn't say whether its upload accepts them. O1

      Fix: Delete them, or move your own data under metadata as text values.

  • VS Code & CopilotPasses

SKILL.md

We only show SKILL.md text here when its licence clearly allows it.
