Quick single-paper lookup via AlphaXiv LLM-optimized summaries with tiered source fallback. Use when user says "explain this paper", "summarize paper", pastes an arXiv/AlphaXiv URL, or provides a bare arXiv ID for quick understanding - not for broad literature search.
Search, download, and summarize academic papers from arXiv. Use when user says "search arxiv", "download paper", "fetch arxiv", "arxiv search", "get paper pdf", or wants to find and save papers from arXiv to the local paper library.
Structured co-authoring workflow for specifications, proposals, decision docs, PRDs, RFCs, and other substantial written artifacts. Use when Codex should help a user gather context, shape document structure, draft section by section, and test whether the document works for a cold reader before handoff.
Use this skill whenever the user wants to create, read, edit, or manipulate Word documents (.docx files). Triggers include: any mention of 'Word doc', 'word document', '.docx', or requests to produce professional documents with formatting like tables of contents, headings, page numbers, or letterheads. Also use when…
Use when creating research figures, paper posters, academic presentation visuals, or conceptual diagrams as an editable draw.io/diagrams.net draft plus PNG export that passes strict visual QA. Especially for paper figures/posters where Codex must read source materials, reuse extracted paper images or plots when…
Process user-provided patent figures and generate formal drawing descriptions. Use when user says "附图处理", "figure description", "附图说明", "drawings description", or wants to describe patent figures with reference numerals.
Structure and derive research formulas when the user wants to 推导公式, derive a theory line, build equations from a problem statement, clarify assumptions, separate formal derivation from remarks, or turn messy theory notes into a paper-ready derivation skeleton. Use for research-style formula development, not for fully…
Draft a structured grant proposal from research ideas and literature. Supports KAKENHI (Japan), NSF (US), NSFC (China, including 面上/青年/优青/杰青/海外优青/重点), ERC (EU), DFG (Germany), SNSF (Switzerland), ARC (Australia), NWO (Netherlands), and generic formats. Use when user says "write grant", "grant proposal", "申請書", "write…
Operate the local MiniMax CLI (mmx) from Codex for web search, vision, image / video / speech / music generation, quota inspection, and MiniMax file operations. mmx text chat is forbidden — Codex is the text generator.
Mock peer-review workflow for manuscript authors preparing conference or journal submissions. Use when the user asks in English or Chinese for mock review, simulated review, rebuttal preparation, reviewer-style critique, or asks Codex to review a manuscript according to a named venue/journal such as ACM MM, NeurIPS…
Verify research idea novelty against recent literature. Use when user says "查新", "novelty check", "有没有人做过", "check novelty", or wants to verify a research idea is novel before implementing.
Deep, critical paper-reading workflow that produces a structured reading note. Use when the user wants to read, understand, summarize, break down, or take notes on a single research paper. English triggers: "read this paper", "read the paper", "paper reading", "paper notes", "deeply read", "critically read"…
Use this skill whenever the user wants to do anything with PDF files. This includes reading or extracting text/tables from PDFs, combining or merging multiple PDFs into one, splitting PDFs apart, rotating pages, adding watermarks, creating new PDFs, filling PDF forms, encrypting/decrypting PDFs, extracting images, and…
Structures Benchmark and Evaluation papers using the five-pillar framework (Research Gap, Construction Pipeline, Evaluation Framework, Empirical Findings, optional Companion Method). Returns a completeness audit, a six-part Introduction logic chain, a Section 2-7 skeleton, and a pre-submission checklist. Use when…
Advises on the design of the three core figures in a technical paper: the Motivated Example (Figure 1), the Solution Overview (Methodology), and the Experimental Results figures. Recommends the right design paradigm, layout, labelling, and tool for each figure type, then runs a quality-control audit. Use when the user…
Evaluates a preliminary research idea against a five-dimension framework (Higher, Faster, Stronger, Cheaper, Broader) plus idea-lifecycle and student-capability matching, paradigm-shift probing, and a fatal-flaws audit. Returns a reviewer-style verdict. Use when the user has a draft research idea and asks whether it…
Drafts a 6-paragraph Introduction outline for a technical paper from a structured Flowchart: background and running example, existing limitations, problem essence and goal, key challenges, solution overview, contributions. Positions the paper as Technique or New Problem/Setting and aligns contributions with…
Runs a pre-submission review of a technical paper across five dimensions: macro logic, writing details, English grammar, LaTeX formatting, and figure quality. Uses a reviewer-style severity taxonomy (CRITICAL / MAJOR / MINOR) and flags banned AI-tone vocabulary and em-dash misuse. Use when the user asks to 'review…
Structures a technical paper's full logical skeleton using a thinking-template table (research background, limitations, key idea or goal, challenges, methodology modules, contributions), positions the paper as Technique or New Problem/Setting, and runs a four-point self-consistency check. Use when the user is…
Guides AI-assisted research across three sub-flows, Vibe Coding, Vibe Figure, and Vibe Writing, with behavioural rules that keep the user in charge of academic judgment while delegating mechanical work to AI. Recommends the right tool (Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, Figma, Gemini) for the current stage. Use when the user…
Use this skill any time a .pptx file is involved in any way - as input, output, or both. This includes: creating slide decks, pitch decks, or presentations; reading, parsing, or extracting text from any .pptx file (even if the extracted content will be used elsewhere, like in an email or summary); editing, modifying…
Writes rigorous mathematical proofs for ML/AI theory. Use when asked to prove a theorem, lemma, proposition, or corollary, fill in missing proof steps, formalize a proof sketch, 补全证明, 写证明, 证明某个命题, or determine whether a claimed proof can actually be completed under the stated assumptions.
Search and analyze research papers, find related work, summarize key ideas. Use when user says "find papers", "related work", "literature review", "what does this paper say", or needs to understand academic papers.
Long-running survey workflow for robotics, embodied AI, computer vision, world models, navigation, manipulation, 3D scene understanding, and adjacent research.
