cnki-researcher — orchestrates all 10 skills. Handles captcha detection (pauses and asks user to solve manually), tab management, and multi-step workflows like "search → filter → export to Zotero".

Installation

1. Install Chrome DevTools MCP server

claude mcp add chrome-devtools -- npx -y chrome-devtools-mcp@latest

2. Install CNKI skills

git clone https://github.com/cookjohn/cnki-skills.git
cd cnki-skills
cp -r skills/ agents/ .claude/

Or add to an existing project:

git clone https://github.com/cookjohn/cnki-skills.git /tmp/cnki-skills
cp -r /tmp/cnki-skills/skills/ your-project/.claude/skills/
cp -r /tmp/cnki-skills/agents/ your-project/.claude/agents/

3. Start Chrome with remote debugging

# Windows
"C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --remote-debugging-port=9222

# macOS
/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --remote-debugging-port=9222

# Linux
google-chrome --remote-debugging-port=9222

4. Launch Claude Code

How It Works

All skills use async evaluate_script calls via Chrome DevTools MCP — no screenshot parsing or OCR. Each skill operates in 1-2 tool calls (navigate + evaluate_script), making interactions fast and reliable.

Key design choices:

Single async script per operation — replaces multi-step snapshot → click → wait_for patterns
navigate_page over link clicking — CNKI opens links in new tabs; navigating directly avoids tab management overhead
Batch export — export multiple papers from search results in one call instead of visiting each detail page
Captcha-aware — detects Tencent slider captcha and pauses for manual resolution

工作原理

所有技能通过 Chrome DevTools MCP 的 evaluate_script 异步执行 JavaScript，无需截图识别或 OCR。每个操作仅需 1-2 次工具调用（导航 + 执行脚本），快速且稳定。

核心设计：

单次异步脚本 — 取代多步骤的 snapshot → click → wait_for 模式
直接导航优于点击链接 — 知网链接会打开新标签页，直接导航避免标签页管理开销
批量导出 — 从搜索结果页一次性导出多篇论文，无需逐篇进入详情页
验证码感知 — 检测到腾讯滑块验证码时自动暂停，等待用户手动处理
