Statistical models library for Python. Use when you need specific model classes (OLS, GLM, mixed models, ARIMA) with detailed diagnostics, residuals, and inference. Best for econometrics, time series, rigorous inference with coefficient tables. For guided statistical test selection with APA reporting use…
Access comprehensive LaTeX templates, formatting requirements, and submission guidelines for major scientific publication venues (Nature, Science, PLOS, IEEE, ACM), academic conferences (NeurIPS, ICML, CVPR, CHI), research posters, and grant proposals (NSF, NIH, DOE, DARPA). This skill should be used when preparing…
Run structured What-If scenario analysis with multi-branch possibility exploration. Use this skill when the user asks speculative questions like "what if...", "what would happen if...", "what are the possibilities", "explore scenarios", "scenario analysis", "possibility space", "what could go wrong", "best case /…
Activate when the user wants to audit a paper's empirical or technical claims against a linked code repository — checking whether experiments, datasets, models, metrics, and hyperparameters described in the paper actually exist and match the code. Produces a structured audit report classifying each claim as CONFIRMED…
Activate when the user needs to manage multi-author collaboration on a paper. Tracks author contributions using the CRediT taxonomy, manages responsibility assignments, documents the human-AI division of labor, and produces an author contribution statement ready for submission.
Activate when the user needs to generate, refine, or evaluate academic figures, diagrams, or statistical plots. Uses PaperBanana to transform text descriptions or data files into publication-quality illustrations via direct Python API call. Fallback: matplotlib/seaborn.
Activate when the user needs to evaluate whether a research idea is worth pursuing, brainstorm new research directions, or stress-test a paper concept before committing. This is Phase 0 of the paper machine — the gate that decides whether the full 8-phase pipeline should run. Also activates standalone via…
Activate when the user wants to export a completed paper draft to production-ready LaTeX (.tex) and PDF. Converts draft.md + references.bib + figures/ into a complete arxiv-style LaTeX project with properly resolved \citep/\citet citations, booktabs tables, figure environments, and compiled PDF output.
ALWAYS activate when the user needs to find, organize, review, or synthesize academic literature. Uses academic APIs (Semantic Scholar, OpenAlex, CrossRef, arXiv) via scripts/academicsearch.py. Handles search strategy, snowballing, screening, concept matrices, narrative synthesis, and literature monitoring (detecting…
Activate when the user needs to select, justify, describe, or execute a research methodology. Provides method selection guidance, complete method section templates, quality criteria, and tool recommendations. Covers SLR, qualitative (case study, Gioia, Mayring, Grounded Theory), quantitative (SEM, regression, survey…
Activate when the user wants to simulate a double-blind peer review of their paper before submission or before sharing with co-authors. Reads the current draft (draft.md or paper.tex), generates 2 independent reviewer reports in the style of top IS/CS conferences (ICIS, ECIS, MISQ level), and saves the output as…
Activate when the user needs to analyze how their paper positions itself relative to the closest existing work. Builds a differentiation matrix, identifies unique positioning, and generates a positioning statement that strengthens the contribution argumentation. Complements the theory-engine by focusing on the…
