Curated by Skill Harbor: a systematic literature-review workflow that turns Muse into a rigorous research assistant instead of a confident summarizer. It starts by converting your prompt into a searchable research question (PICO for clinical work: population, intervention, comparator, outcome; system/method/baseline/metric for technical work), then builds a search protocol before collecting a single source: databases to search, date ranges, languages. Sources are screened explicitly, synthesized across review types (narrative for orientation, scoping for mapping gaps, systematic for publication-grade claims, meta-analysis for quantitative aggregation), with citation checks and an evidence log so every claim traces back to a source. It asks which level of rigor you need and defaults sensibly: scoping for exploration, systematic for publication or clinical claims. By @affaan-m, listed here with credit to its creator. From the affaan-m/ECC repository (MIT). Honest caveats: pure workflow guidance, nothing to install; the agent can only work with sources it can actually access, verify database access first; a literature review supports your judgment, it does not replace domain expertise or peer review. Skill Harbor never reviews the code, review it yourself before use.

Install
Copy the install package below, then paste it into MuseThe install prompt below already includes the vetting steps: your agent follows the community checklist before installing anything with executable code. Want more?
Use "Scientific Literature Review" with your Muse. Prerequisites: access to the literature databases you want searched (the agent can only use sources it can reach). Pure workflow guidance, nothing to install. 1. Open the skill: https://github.com/affaan-m/ECC/blob/main/skills/scientific-thinking-literature-review/SKILL.md and copy the full SKILL.md text. 2. Paste it into a chat with Muse and add: "Run a literature review on [your research question]. Start with the search protocol, then screen sources." 3. State the rigor level: "This is for [exploration / a publication / a clinical claim], use the matching review type." Tip: approve the search protocol before any collection; a sloppy protocol makes a sloppy review. Safety: a skill is plain-text instructions; it runs nothing by itself. Verify citations against the originals yourself, and treat the synthesis as a starting point for your own judgment, not a verdict.

Questions
How do I install a build?
Every product page includes a copy-paste install prompt. Paste it into your Muse and it sets the build up for you — no manual configuration.
Where does my money go?
Straight to the seller. Skill Harbor never processes payments: checkout happens on the seller’s own page, usually Stripe.
What does the ✓ next to a creator’s name mean?
It means we confirmed the identity of the person behind the listing. It says nothing about the code itself — always check a build before installing it.
