How to use Literature Review in your AI agent

What you'll get

This skill helps you write professional literature reviews — whether for a dissertation chapter, a research proposal, or a standalone publication. You give it a topic, your sources, and what kind of review you need, and it organizes the evidence thematically, synthesizes findings across studies, and identifies what's missing in the field. Perfect for anyone doing research, writing grant proposals, or building the evidence base for a new project.

• Building the research foundation for a new product or policy initiative
• You have a stack of research papers and need to make sense of what they say collectively

What this skill does

• Organizes research evidence by theme instead of summarizing one paper at a time
• Synthesizes findings across multiple studies and highlights where they agree or conflict
• Critically analyzes study quality, methodology, and bias for key sources
• Identifies gaps in the research and what the field still needs to explore
• Formats output for academic journals, dissertations, grant proposals, or policy briefs
