CNKI Scholar
PassAudited by ClawScan on Apr 1, 2026.
Overview
The skill is an instruction-only CNKI/academic search helper that mainly calls OpenAlex/Crossref via curl and python3; its requirements and instructions are coherent with its stated purpose and request no secrets or installs.
This skill appears coherent and low-risk: it only issues queries to public OpenAlex/Crossref endpoints and formats citations using local curl+python3 commands. Before installing, note: (1) the skill does not directly integrate with CNKI/知网 — the CNKI coverage claim is optimistic and the skill suggests using a separate browser-automation tool for that, which could require additional software, logins, or violate site TOS; (2) downloading non-OA PDFs will typically fail without institution access — the skill correctly checks OpenAlex OA fields first; (3) ensure your agent environment has curl and python3 if you expect the examples to run; (4) the README's note about OpenAlex API key/rate limits may be imprecise — check OpenAlex's current docs if you plan heavy usage. If you require direct CNKI downloads or browser automation, request the skill author to provide explicit, auditable code and justification for any credentials or scraping tools before granting broader privileges.
