What it does

In the author's own words, from each skill's SKILL.md — showing the first 30 of 42 files.

  • add-venue-profile

    Creates a new venue-profile YAML for venues/conferences/ from a conference CFP URL, validates it against venues/schema.yml, and preps the contribution PR. Use when the user wants to add a venue, contribute or refresh a venue profile, encode a conference's submission requirements (deadlines, page limits, blind level, template invocation, rebuttal format, submission system) as machine-readable YAML…

  • draft-related-work

    Drafts or rewrites a Related Work / prior work section positioned against actually-retrieved papers — derives the REQUIRED clusters from the paper's own claimed scope (not just whatever was retrieved), clusters prior work into themes, articulates the delta (what this paper adds) per cluster, enforces a per-cluster citation floor and routes empty expected clusters back to find-papers, follows the…

  • orchestrate-paper

    Goal-driven conductor for the whole idea-to-published-paper lifecycle. Takes a research idea plus experiments and a target ("submit to NeurIPS 2026", or "help me pick a venue") and runs a goal->plan->execute->verify->reflect loop. It plans the stages, invokes the right lifecycle skills in order (literature-review, write-abstract, preflight-check, simulate-reviewers, and the rest), checkpoints wit…

  • refactor-structure

    Diagnoses and fixes a paper's argument architecture and narrative flow, independent of any venue. Checks whether the story is built in the right order, whether each section does its job, whether the intro promises what the body delivers, and whether the contribution -> evidence -> conclusion arc holds — then produces a restructuring plan (move / merge / split / cut sections) the author approves B…

  • reflect-and-improve

    The reflection agent. Use it right after another skill produces an artifact such as a rewrite from polish-prose, a rebuttal, an abstract, a preflight fix, or a tailored draft to critique that output against the stated goal, the paper's .paper-memory/profile.yml, the relevant rubric, and past .paper-memory/lessons.md, then decide whether it actually improved. Trigger words include reflect, self-cr…
