About this skill

In-Depth Article Analysis Skill

Use Cases

  • The user provides an article and requests analysis
  • The user wants to understand the article's core argument and reasoning logic
  • The user wants to critically examine a certain article
  • The user wants to extract reusable thinking frameworks from the article
  • The user wants to learn the article's writing techniques

Analysis Framework

Analyze layer by layer according to the following five dimensions. Each question must be specific and insightful, avoiding vague generalities. If information is insufficient, explain why.

I. Core Content (Figure Out "What It Is")

  1. Core Argument: Summarize the article's core argument in one sentence
  2. Key Concepts: What key concepts did the author use? How are these concepts defined?
  3. Article Structure: How is the argument developed? How do the parts connect?
  4. Evidence Support: What specific cases, data, or authoritative citations support the viewpoints?

II. Background Context (Understand "Why")

  1. Author Identity: Who is the author? What are their background, identity, and stance?
  2. Writing Background: Under what background was the article written? What phenomenon or debate is it responding to?
  3. Writing Purpose: What problem does the author want to solve? Whom do they want to influence?
  4. Underlying Assumptions: What are the author's underlying assumptions? What unstated premises are there?

III. Critical Examination

  1. Possible Rebuttals: What might the main opposing opinions be?
  2. Argument Flaws: Are there any flaws, jumps, or biases in the argument?
  3. Applicable Boundaries: Under what circumstances do the viewpoints hold? Under what circumstances do they not hold?
  4. Avoided Issues: Has the author deliberately avoided or downplayed any issues?

IV. Value Extraction

  1. Thinking Framework: What reusable thinking framework or methodology did the author propose?
  2. Insight One: For [target reader role 1 determined based on the article content], what can be learned?
  3. Insight Two: For [target reader role 2 determined based on the article content], what can be learned?
  4. Cognitive Change: What cognition of readers might this article change?

V. Writing Technique Analysis (Optional, expand when requested by the user)

  1. Structural Design: How are the title, opening, and ending designed?
  2. Persuasion Techniques: What techniques did the author use to make the article persuasive?
  3. Worth Learning: What aspects of the writing are worth learning?

Invocation Modes

When Called by Other Skills

When called by polish、outliner and other skills, the caller may specify special requirements:

  • Polishing Mode: Do not perform fact-checking; retrieve background information only when necessary
  • Outline Mode: Focus on structure and argument analysis

Follow the caller's specific instructions.

Online Search Requirements

Search Decision Criteria

Situations that require searching:

  • The article cites specific data (statistics, research conclusions) and you doubt its accuracy
  • The article cites famous quotes or authoritative views, and the citation is crucial to the argument
  • The article involves a major controversial event, and you need to understand the positions of all parties to make a fair analysis
  • The author is a public figure, and their background and stance will affect the understanding of the article
  • You are uncertain about a key fact and cannot provide a reliable analysis

Situations that do not require searching:

  • The article is purely opinion/commentary in nature and does not involve verifiable factual claims
  • The cited data/events are well-known common knowledge
  • The article is a work of fiction or a personal essay
  • You are sufficiently confident about all key information

Search Types

Fact-checking (perform when in doubt)

  • Verify specific data, citations, and events
  • Mark any issues found:[事实核查：原文称"XXX"，经查证实际为"YYY"]

Background supplementation (perform when it affects understanding)

  • Author background, event context, positions of all parties in the controversy

Extended analysis (perform when requested by the user or required by the analysis)

  • Other experts' views, latest developments, counterarguments

Search Principles

  1. Necessity first: First determine whether a search is truly needed, to avoid meaningless searches
  2. When in doubt, search: When in doubt about key facts, rather search than guess
  3. Do not fabricate: If nothing is found, say "no relevant information found"
  4. Cite sources: Indicate the information source for verification results

Execution Requirements

  • Answer each question one by one, do not skip any
  • Answers must be specific and insightful, citing the original text of the article as support
  • Avoid vague, generalized language
  • If information for a certain question is insufficient, clearly state "insufficient information, because..."
  • The target reader role must be determined based on the article content
  • Writing technique analysis is brief by default; elaborate in detail when the user requests it
  • When in doubt about key facts, verify online; do not fabricate or guess
  • Before starting the analysis, first assess: does this article contain factual claims that need to be verified?

Saving Results

After the analysis is complete, save the full analysis results to the article directory:

  1. Save as analysis.md
  2. Keep the format consistent with the output (complete analysis across five dimensions)
  3. Add metadata at the beginning of the file:
---
source: source-1.md
analyzed_at: YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm
---

File structure example:

posts/2026/01/08/ai-future/
├── source-1.md       # 素材
└── analysis.md       # 分析结果

When invoked by another skill:

  • The save path is specified by the caller
  • If the caller does not specify one, save to the same-level directory as the material
