Survey Seed Harvest

Bootstrap taxonomy seeds from existing survey/review papers inside your retrieved set.

This is an accelerator for the early structure stage: it should make taxonomy-builder easier, not replace it.

Inputs

• papers/papers_dedup.jsonl (deduped paper metadata with titles/abstracts)

Outputs

• outline/taxonomy.yml (seed taxonomy; expected to be refined)

Workflow (heuristic)

Uses: papers/papers_dedup.jsonl.

1. Find likely survey/review papers:
   • title/abstract contains “survey”, “review”, “systematic”, “meta-analysis”
2. Extract candidate topic terms and group them into:
   • ~4–10 top-level nodes (“chapters”)
   • 2–6 children per node (mappable leaves)
3. Write short, actionable descriptions:
   • what belongs here / what does not
   • (optional) list 2–5 representative titles as seeds
4. Treat the result as a starting point:
   • pass it to taxonomy-builder for domain-meaningful rewriting and scope alignment.

Quality checklist

• outline/taxonomy.yml exists and is valid YAML.
• Taxonomy has at least 2 levels (children used) and every node has a description.
• Avoid generic placeholder nodes like “Overview/Benchmarks/Open Problems” unless they are truly content-based for your domain.

Script (optional helper)

Quick Start

• uv run python .codex/skills/survey-seed-harvest/scripts/run.py --help
• uv run python .codex/skills/survey-seed-harvest/scripts/run.py --workspace <workspace>

All Options

• --top-k <n>: number of candidate terms to consider
• --min-freq <n>: minimum frequency threshold

Examples

• More conservative term selection:
  • uv run python .codex/skills/survey-seed-harvest/scripts/run.py --workspace <workspace> --top-k 80 --min-freq 3

Notes

• This helper is keyword-based; treat the output as seeds and refine with taxonomy-builder.

Troubleshooting

Issue: no survey/review papers are detected in the set

Fix:

• Broaden retrieval (add “survey”, “review”, “benchmark” variants) or manually seed a few known surveys, then rerun.

Issue: taxonomy seeds look like generic buckets

Fix:

• Keep seeds concrete (named methods/benchmarks/tasks) and rely on taxonomy-builder to rewrite under the actual scope.
