description: >
  Systematically screen papers for a Systematic Literature Review (SLR).
  Applies PRISMA-compliant title/abstract and full-text screening with documented
  inclusion/exclusion criteria. Takes literature_base.csv from Phase 1 and produces
  a filtered, auditable set of included studies with PRISMA flow diagram.

Screen Papers: **$ARGUMENTS**

Activate the **screening-engine** skill. Read `skills/screening-engine/SKILL.md` in full.

Execute the complete 6-step screening workflow:

1. **DEFINE** inclusion/exclusion criteria (present for approval before screening) 2. **SCREEN** title/abstract for all papers in literature_base.csv 3. **SCREEN** full-text for included and uncertain papers 4. **ASSESS** quality of included papers (Q1-Q8 checklist) 5. **GENERATE** PRISMA flow diagram (text + visual via figure-engine) 6. **SAVE** all screening artifacts and update literature_base_screened.csv

Input

`$ARGUMENTS` can be:

• **Empty** — screens all papers in `literature_base.csv` using default criteria
• **File path** to a specific CSV (e.g., `@literature_base_v2.csv`)
• **Criteria description** (e.g., `"only empirical papers 2020-2025 in enterprise context"`)
• **"resume"** — continue a previously started screening session

Output

• `screening/screening_protocol.md` — documented criteria and process
• `screening/title_abstract_screening.csv` — all T/A screening decisions with reasons
• `screening/full_text_screening.csv` — full-text screening decisions
• `screening/quality_assessment.csv` — quality scores for included papers
• `screening/screening_summary.md` — PRISMA counts and summary statistics
• `literature_base_screened.csv` — final set of included papers
• `figures/fig_prisma_flow.png` — visual PRISMA diagram
