This skill is no longer available upstream. Our re-check on Aug 10, 2026 couldn't find it any more (SKILL.md not found in repo tree). The test below is what we measured on Jul 17, 2026 and we're leaving it up as a record — but there is nothing left to install, so we've removed the command.

Ran the programmer-stage contract on a small profit-maximization LP: the answer matched a no-skill baseline (optimum profit 3600), but the skill additionally emitted a results CSV and a results/复现清单.json carrying the seed, input SHA-256, dependency versions and a reproduce command that I re-ran to the identical result. All three role files plus the algorithm index resolve on disk, and the skill honestly warns the generated paper is reference-only, not directly submittable. The headline Word-paper stage (editable-equation docx via LibreOffice) could not be exercised because soffice was absent, so the verified win is the reproducibility discipline, not the final paper.

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

  • Installs cleanly 5/5
  • Triggers reliably 5/5
  • Output vs. baseline 7/10
  • Docs & honesty 5/5

What Math Modeling does

A three-role skill (modeler, programmer, paper-writer) for mathematical modeling competitions. Triggers on requests to build a model, solve it with runnable code, visualize results, or draft a modeling paper. Enforces results from real execution plus a reproducibility manifest instead of fabricated numbers.

How to install Math Modeling

Nothing to install: the source repository no longer has this skill. If the author brings it back, our daily re-check will pick it up and the command will reappear here.

Commands — how to trigger Math Modeling

  • /math-modeling Three-role pipeline for modeling contests: analyze, code, then write the paper

It also activates on plain-language prompts like these:

  • analyze this scenario and build the mathematical model behind it first
  • write a math modeling paper with reproducible results attached
  • solve this profit-maximization problem and give me a results table

Frequently asked questions

Is the Math Modeling skill free?
Yes. The skill itself is free from XiaoMaColtAI/math-modeling-skill. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.

What is the Math Modeling SkillProof Score?
8.8/10 — installs cleanly 5/5, triggers reliably 5/5, output vs. baseline 7/10, docs & honesty 5/5.
How do I install Math Modeling?
Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.
Can I use Math Modeling with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?
The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.
