Conduct Systematic Literature Reviews
Researchers need reproducible reviews that track searches, criteria, synthesis, and citations. This skill guides searches, screening, citation checks, and formatted review outputs.
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "literature-review" from https://skillstore.io/skills/davila7-literature-review.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/davila7-literature-review/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it
Using "literature-review". A request to review CRISPR therapies for sickle cell disease from 2015 to 2024.
Expected outcome:
A scoped review plan with PICO terms, database choices, search dates, screening stages, and planned synthesis themes.
Using "literature-review". A combined search export with duplicate records and mixed citation metadata.
Expected outcome:
A deduplicated literature summary ranked by relevance, with DOI links and clear source information for screening.
Using "literature-review". A completed markdown review draft with cited DOIs.
Expected outcome:
A citation verification report, corrected reference guidance, and instructions for generating a formatted PDF.
Security Audit
SafeThe review found a legitimate academic literature-review workflow with external command, network, and filesystem behavior. Most markdown backtick, reconnaissance, URL, and obfuscation alerts are false positives; confirmed issues are the Pandoc subprocess invocation, DOI metadata requests, and local file writes. No prompt injection, malicious exfiltration intent, or hidden business-logic abuse was found.
Capability review items (6)
These are real local capabilities that may be expected for this skill, so they require review but are not counted as confirmed malicious behavior.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: HighWhat You Can Build
Prepare a Thesis Literature Review
Define a focused question, document searches, screen papers, and produce a structured review chapter.
Screen Evidence for a Grant Proposal
Map recent studies, identify gaps, and summarize evidence strength for a funding application.
Standardize Review Deliverables
Use repeatable templates for search logs, citation checks, quality assessment, and publication-ready outputs.
Try These Prompts
Help me plan a literature review on [topic]. Define the research question, scope, databases, date range, and inclusion criteria.
Create database search strategies for [research question]. Include PubMed terms, preprint sources, synonyms, Boolean logic, and documentation fields.
Synthesize these included studies by theme. Compare methods, evidence quality, key findings, limitations, and research gaps.
Review my draft literature review for reproducibility, citation accuracy, screening transparency, PRISMA completeness, and PDF readiness.
Best Practices
- Define scope, databases, search dates, and inclusion criteria before screening begins.
- Keep search exports, exclusion reasons, quality assessments, and citation reports with the review.
- Verify citations and inspect generated PDFs before sharing or submitting the final review.
Avoid
- Do not rely on a single database for a comprehensive or systematic review.
- Do not summarize papers one by one when a thematic synthesis is required.
- Do not treat verified DOI metadata as a substitute for reading and assessing the full study.
