word-zotero-citationsBuild, audit, authorize, recover, or finalize dynamic Zotero citations and bibliographies in Microsoft Word DOCX files with a protected-source, digest-bound workflow. Use for Word–Zotero citation conversion, static OOXML citation audits, mocked/offline validation, Refresh authorization/report review, UI-evidence contracts, run recovery, or rollback proposals; never perform live Word/Zotero integration without separate explicit authorization.0 installssocial-noteTurn a scientific conversation, paper takeaway, or figure story into paste-ready social copy. Use when the user asks for 小红书文案, a Xiaohongshu note, 微信/朋友圈, 公众号草稿, a tweet, Twitter/X copy, or share-to-social text from a Wisp session. Ask which platform unless the user already named one.0 installspublic-data-accessPlan, validate, and document public-bioinformatics data acquisition for GEO/GSE/GSM/GPL/GDS, SRA/ENA, TCGA/GDC, GTEx, and DepMap. Covers expression matrices, raw reads, download manifests, caches, and optional geokit SOFT/Series Matrix acquisition for R workflows.0 installsbear-map给一个概念，从真实检索到的论文摘要里挖出它的邻近概念，画出以该概念为中心的知识地图——每个节点都锚定真实文献，不从记忆里补节点。同时输出 Mermaid 概念图（可在 Claude Code / GitHub / Obsidian 渲染）和可截图的独立 HTML 地图，再给 3–6 篇入门推荐。 **以下情况请主动触发本技能**：用户说"帮我画一张这个概念的知识地图"、"这个词周围有哪些相关概念"、"梳理一下这个方向的概念网络"、"给我一张概念图"、"这个领域的核心概念有哪些"、"知识地图"、"概念地图"、"map out this concept"、"draw a knowledge map of X"、"what concepts surround X"、"show me the concept network around this term"、"concept map for X"——即使用户没有说"bear-map"，只要意图是**以一个概念为中心，了解它周围的知识版图**，就使用本技能。 不适用于：为观点找支持文献（用 bear-support）、找反对文献（用 bear-counter）、选题查重（用 bear-scoop）、溯源演化史（用 bear-trace）。0 installsremote-compute-sshSubmit recoverable SSH-direct research Runs with live progress cards and model-free monitoring.0 installsfigure-composerCompose or improve a publication-grade multi-panel scientific figure from a claim, concrete data paths, or an existing image. Use for figure outlining, parallel panel rendering, exact-grid composition, visual inspection, and adversarial figure review. Use figure-style for one standalone plot and paper-narrative for whole-paper figure ordering.0 installs

analysis-workflowOrganize multi-step scientific analyses into reproducible, self-contained modules. Use for workflows such as QC→PCA→DEG→GSEA that produce scripts, inputs, figures, tables, and methods. Creates a stable module layout, records exact inputs/parameters/package and database versions in each module README, keeps large data as references instead of copies, and verifies outputs before completion.0 installsfigure-styleCorrectness and legibility checklist for publication figures, plus a matplotlib sidecar. Load before plotting anything and call `apply_figure_style()` (role-mapped font ladder, outward ticks, frameless legends, 300-dpi saves, CJK-safe fonts). Covers data fidelity, label budgets, axis/colour/type rules, chart choice by data shape, composition, and a mandatory render-then-inspect QA pass (bbox collisions + per-panel visual crops). Helpers: focal_palette, bar_with_points, strip_with_median, end_of_line_labels, panel_letter, set_frame, panel_crops. Multi-panel assembly lives in figure-composer; whole-paper figure ordering in paper-narrative.0 installscustomizeCreate a Wisp specialist or author a project-local skill using the tools Wisp actually exposes. Use when the user wants a custom Agent persona, a restricted specialist loadout, a new skill, or changes to an existing project-local skill.0 installsfigure-duplicate-auditAudit scientific figures for duplicated, reused, transformed, or uninformative image panels. Use for 图片查重, 论文图像重复, PDF figure 审核, when the user attaches a PDF, asks to review selected PDF pages, or tags a directory containing manuscript input images. For PDFs, extract large embedded figure images before splitting them into panels; for directories, preserve originals and split every composite image directly. Produces a reviewed panel manifest, all-pairs candidate table, visual evidence, coverage accounting, and a cautious integrity report.0 installsaudit-biomedical-paper-evidence审读用户提供的生命科学或生物医学论文、PDF、摘要、正文、figure、panel、caption 或截图，定位核心科学问题，逐图解释实验设计和证据链，审计机制、因果性、rescue、方法边界、正交验证与局限。材料缺失时请求补充或转介检索；不提供医疗建议、临床决策或可直接执行的湿实验 SOP。0 installssinglecell-qcUse when designing, reviewing, or implementing single-cell RNA-seq QC in Python or R with a human-in-the-loop, data-driven approach. Trigger for scRNA QC metrics, per-sample diagnosis, threshold discussion, mitochondrial/ambient/doublet assessment, MAD vs fixed cutoffs, or refactoring automated merge-first QC. The analyst confirms key decisions at each step—agents must inspect data, propose options, and wait for approval before filtering, doublet removal, or merging. Not a turnkey pipeline skill.0 installs

Frequently asked questions about literature-review

What does the literature-review skill do?

Retrieve, verify, and synthesize scientific literature. Use for seminal-paper lookups, evidence summaries, method comparisons, and gap analyses. Every citation must come from a live lookup, never from memory; retractions are checked; the deliverable is argued prose with resolvable DOI links. It's a reusable SKILL.md instruction set that loads into your AI coding assistant on demand, no prompt engineering, no copy-pasting every session.

How do I install the literature-review skill?

Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install wisp-science-literature-review` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/wisp-science-literature-review/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.

Which AI tools does literature-review work with?

literature-review runs in Claude Code. It follows the open Agent Skills standard (SKILL.md), so the same skill works in every supported tool without modification.

Is the literature-review skill free?

Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.

How do I use literature-review after installing it?

In Claude Code, type `/wisp-science-literature-review` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.

Can I share the literature-review skill with my team?

Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
