Test report

Verdict: Works with setup
Score: 8.4/10
Tested: Jul 16, 2026
Environment: Claude Code 2.x (agent harness)
Upstream re-checked: Aug 10, 2026 · 847642f

The scoring framework (desk-editor screen, six-dimension rubric, Go/Revise/Kill thresholds) works standalone and turned a vague 'sounds interesting, check the literature' into an explicit Revise verdict with named hurdles -- but the skill's own centerpiece rule, 'never claim an idea is novel without searching first,' requires a paid Corbis MCP API key that the copied SKILL.md never mentions (it's only disclosed in the repo's separate README/setup docs, not in the file you'd actually cp into ~/.claude/skills).

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

What Finance Idea Screening does

Screens a raw research idea in corporate finance, investments, asset pricing, or real estate through a desk-editor screen, an imaginary-abstract test, a six-dimension 1-5 rubric, and explicit Go/Revise/Kill decision thresholds. Triggers on brainstorming, novelty checks, contribution framing, or journal-fit questions for a finance research idea. Its novelty-verification step assumes a connected 'Corbis' literature-search MCP tool (search_papers, get_paper_details_batch, etc.).
