About paperzilla
paperzilla
Reads projects, searches project feeds
paperzilla is an agent skill that lets an agent work with your Paperzilla projects, recommendations and canonical papers through the pz command-line tool. You can ask for the latest recommendations from a project, open a recommendation and get an explanation of why it matters, fetch a canonical paper as markdown and summarise it, see the feed for a project, leave feedback on a recommendation, or export a paper, recommendation or feed as JSON. The skill explains how the agent should use Paperzilla's data for your research. It gives the agent direct access to the Paperzilla data, but it does not impose a workflow or an external delivery system, so you decide how the results are used. Use it when you already keep your reading in Paperzilla and want to talk to an agent about it in plain language. It is part of the k-dense-ai scientific agent skills repository on GitHub, which has about 49,600 stars. The listing shows it as free, and it has about 1,800 installs. Its security audits show passes from Gen Agent Trust Hub and Socket, with a warning from Snyk. Install it with npx skills add https://github.com/k-dense-ai/scientific-agent-skills --skill paperzilla.
