Run the pre-publish validation gate for a new release. Use before `make publish` or Zenodo deposit. Takes a version argument, runs make release-check, validates CHANGELOG [Unreleased] is non-empty, verifies version strings align, and previews the Zenodo metadata sync.
Run one of the project's comparative benchmark studies (realistic, ablation, appraisal, comparative). Use when executing Pre-reg S2/S3 or running appraisal quality. Validates env, runs the make target, summarizes results, and prompts for evidence update.
Run the LoCoMo external benchmark (Pre-reg Study S1) end-to-end. Use when executing or re-running the AFT vs naive_rag comparison on LoCoMo10. Enforces dry-run-first, env-var check, background execution, and post-run evidence update.
Update docs/research/09_current_evidence.md after a benchmark study completes. Use after any bench-locomo, bench-realistic, bench-ablation, or bench-appraisal run. Pulls numbers from results.md, enforces DISCOVERY vs CONFIRMATORY framing, cross-references the pre-reg.
Build the paper + arXiv submission bundle. Use before arXiv upload or when preparing a workshop submission. Runs latexmk, produces paper/arxiv-submission.tar.gz, then validates all result tables against committed benchmarks/*/results.md.
Verify pre-registration integrity — no uncommitted edits to benchmarks/preregistration.md, and declared studies match produced result files. Use before paper building, release gates, or when resuming scientific work after a break.
