Summarize Paper
Takes the PAPERS.md document and produces crisp, engineering-focused summaries for the highest-value papers detected.
Instructions
- Read the
PAPERS.md file generated by the hunt-papers skill.
- Prioritize HIGH relevance papers first. Include all HIGH and MEDIUM papers, skip LOW unless the total count is under 5.
- For each selected arxiv ID, execute the
fetch-abstract tool to gather official metadata.
- Parse the abstract into a highly actionable, engineering-focused summary. Strip academic phrasing. Target an engineer reading under time pressure.
- The "How to implement it" field must include either pseudocode or a concrete implementation sketch — not just a description.
- Output all summaries as
SUMMARIES.md in the root of the project.
Output Format (SUMMARIES.md)
# Summaries
### [Paper Title] ([arxiv ID])
- **What it does**: [One sentence — focus on the engineering outcome, not the academic framing]
- **How to implement it**: [Pseudocode or implementation sketch, 3-8 lines]
- **What it replaces**: [The older technique this improves upon, and why the old way is worse]
- **Complexity to adopt**: [Low / Medium / High]
