New here? Run /onboard in Claude Code, or take the 2-minute quiz in your browser — no installation needed.
Your First 5 Minutes
Run citation verification on any project with a .bib file:
cd /path/to/your/project && claude
/paper-references
Every entry marked mismatch or not found is a potential hallucinated or corrupted reference. Cost: ~$0.10–0.30.
No .bib file? No CLI? Take the onboarding quiz — it runs in your browser and recommends where to start.
Choose Your Path
PI: Evaluate and deploy for your group
61 public AI workflows for the full paper lifecycle. Skills encode your group's standards in a shared CLAUDE.md — every student and postdoc runs the same verified checks.
- Cost: $20/mo Pro + ~$5–80/mo API tokens depending on usage. Team plan (see Anthropic pricing) includes a GDPR DPA.
- Privacy: No patient data or unpublished results on Pro. Team plan required for institutional compliance. Full guide →
- Rollout: (1) Pilot one high-pain task, (2) Create shared
CLAUDE.md, (3) Set verification standards, (4) Review monthly.
- Skills are plain Markdown — they transfer across providers. No lock-in.

Start with: Quickstart → Examples by domain → CLAUDE.md template
Student: Learn by doing
AI tools amplify expertise — they don't replace it. Verify everything. Build understanding before optimizing speed.
Week 1: Run /paper-references on your bibliography. Check 3 entries manually.
Week 2: Set up CLAUDE.md for your project with /onboard.
Week 3: Try /paper-review on a section draft. Do you agree with the critique?
Week 4: Connect GitHub MCP, try /pr-automation.
Rule of thumb: If you couldn't do the task without AI, the AI shouldn't do it for you yet.
