research-intelligence
Extract insights, analyze claims, and synthesize knowledge from research content. Use when processing academic papers, articles, podcasts, videos, meeting transcripts, or any content where the goal is to extract wisdom, analyze arguments, summarize findings, or compile references. Triggers include "analyze this paper", "extract key insights", "summarize the research", "what are the main claims", "extract wisdom from", "compile references", "critique this argument".
When & Why to Use This Skill
Research Intelligence is a sophisticated Claude skill designed to transform dense research content—including academic papers, articles, and multimedia transcripts—into structured, actionable knowledge. By employing specialized extraction patterns, it enables users to perform deep methodology assessments, evaluate the validity of claims, and synthesize complex information into clear insights, significantly accelerating the literature review and fact-checking process.
Use Cases
- Academic Literature Review: Deeply analyze scientific papers to assess methodology, findings, and limitations while automatically compiling reference lists for bibliographies.
- Fact-Checking and Claim Verification: Evaluate truth claims within articles or transcripts to identify evidence-based arguments and highlight contested or controversial viewpoints.
- Multimedia Knowledge Synthesis: Extract 'wisdom' and key insights from non-textual sources like podcasts, YouTube videos, and meeting transcripts into structured summaries.
- Rapid Information Triage: Use quick summarization patterns to identify core ideas and research significance before committing to a full-text deep dive.

Research Intelligence
Transform research content into actionable knowledge using structured extraction patterns.
Pattern Selection
Determine the appropriate pattern based on user intent:
| Intent | Pattern | When to Use |
|---|---|---|
| Deep paper analysis | analyze_paper |
Scientific papers requiring methodology/findings assessment |
| Quick paper overview | summarize_paper |
Need key points without deep critique |
| Extract insights | extract_wisdom |
Podcasts, videos, articles, general content |
| Evaluate arguments | analyze_claims |
Content with truth claims requiring evidence analysis |
| Compile citations | extract_references |
Building bibliographies, literature reviews |
| Identify key ideas | extract_ideas |
Brainstorming, concept extraction |
| Find controversies | extract_controversial_ideas |
Identifying contested viewpoints |
Decision flow:
- Is it a scientific paper? →
analyze_paper(deep) orsummarize_paper(quick) - Does it contain claims to verify? →
analyze_claims - Need citations/references? →
extract_references - General content for insights? →
extract_wisdom
Pattern Execution
Each pattern follows the Fabric structure. Load the appropriate reference file, then apply its IDENTITY, STEPS, and OUTPUT format to the user's content.
Core Patterns
See references/ for full pattern definitions:
- analyze_paper.md - Scientific paper deep analysis
- summarize_paper.md - Quick paper summary
- extract_wisdom.md - General insight extraction
- analyze_claims.md - Truth claim evaluation
- extract_references.md - Citation compilation
Output Guidelines
- Use bulleted lists for extracted items (not numbered)
- Never repeat ideas, insights, or quotes
- Don't start consecutive items with the same words
- Match output verbosity to user's apparent needs
- For papers: always note limitations and methodology quality
Chaining Patterns
Offer logical follow-ups after completing a pattern:
- After
analyze_paper→ offerextract_referencesfor bibliography - After
extract_wisdom→ offer to create flashcards or summary - After
analyze_claims→ offer to find supporting/contradicting evidence
