paper-ingest-batch

name	paper-ingest-batch
description	Orchestrate batch paper ingestion for the persistent paper literature wiki. Use when Codex receives multiple papers, PDF URLs, PDF files, abstracts, or paper metadata records that need deduplication, parallel per-paper digest/ingest work, cross-reference, commit, and a literature-review style batch summary.

Paper Ingest Batch

Coordinate multi-paper ingestion. This skill is the Codex entry point for batch work; it does not replace paper-digest or paper-ingest.

Examples

• User: "ingest these five papers into the wiki" -> use paper-ingest-batch.
• User: "batch process these arXiv URLs and summarize the literature" -> use paper-ingest-batch.
• User: "add this one paper digest to the wiki" -> use paper-ingest, not batch.

Workflow

1. Normalize and deduplicate all paper inputs.
2. Reuse existing digests and wiki manifest entries when available.
3. Split per-paper work into independent worker tasks when parallel execution is available.
4. Require each worker to use paper-digest for raw paper understanding and paper-ingest for single-paper wiki planning/materialization.
5. Keep global writes in the orchestrator: cross-reference pass, commit, index, hot cache, log, manifest, and batch summary.
6. Return a batch summary with [[wikilinks]] that reads like a compact literature review.

Parallel Boundary

Workers may handle one paper or a small disjoint shard of papers. Workers must not update global index.md, log.md, hot.md, or final manifest state independently.

The orchestrator owns deduplication, failure accounting, cross-reference, commit, and summary. If parallel workers are unavailable, follow the same ownership model sequentially.
