Claude Code

git clone https://github.com/xingtaxueshu/literature-review-skillscp -r "literature-review-skills" ~/.claude/skills/literature-review-skills

Copies the literature-review-skills skill into ~/.claude/skills/ for every project (use .claude/skills/ for one project). Repeat for the other skills listed below.

Plugin

/plugin marketplace add xingtaxueshu/literature-review-skills

Run inside Claude Code if the repository ships a plugin marketplace, then pick plugins from /plugin.

Skills can run code on your machine — read the SKILL.md first.

What it does

In the author's own words, from each skill's SKILL.md.

  • literature-review-skills

    Use this meta-skill when installing or choosing among the five literature review skills in this repository: refine a review question, decompose review modules, compare methods, map contradictions, and locate a research gap.

    SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab)

  • compare-research-methods

    Compare research methods for an academic literature review, thesis proposal, or methodology section by linking each method to what it can and cannot answer. Use when the user needs to justify method choice, compare quantitative/qualitative/mixed-method designs, build a methods table, or turn "I will use this method" into a defensible argument tied to the research question.

    skills/compare-research-methods/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab)

  • decompose-review-modules

    Decompose a refined research question for a literature review into 3-5 clear, mostly non-overlapping review modules. Use when the user has a core review question and needs to build a literature review structure, reading map, subsection outline, coding scheme, or module-based search plan instead of listing papers author by author.

  • locate-review-research-gap

    Locate a concrete, defensible research gap from a literature review synthesis and convert it into an executable future research direction. Use when the user is writing the conclusion, research outlook, thesis proposal significance, or contribution section and needs to avoid vague phrases like "more research is needed" by connecting question, modules, method limits, contradictions, and a specific…

  • map-literature-contradictions

    Analyze conflicting findings in a literature review and turn disagreement into structured insight. Use when the user has papers, abstracts, notes, or claims that disagree and needs to identify consensus, explain contradictions by sample/method/indicator/context/time differences, define explanation boundaries, or write a stronger synthesis section.

    skills/map-literature-contradictions/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab)

  • refine-literature-question

    Refine a broad literature review topic, research direction, thesis idea, or fuzzy academic interest into a sharp one-sentence research question. Use when the user is preparing a literature review, thesis proposal, research design, or paper outline and needs to move from a theme like "XX research review" to a concrete "why/how/mechanism" question that can guide literature search and screening.

Review before you install

A skill is a set of instructions and scripts your agent will follow, and it can run code on your machine. Read the SKILL.md and any scripts first — this listing is not a security review.
