Search, read, and query research papers via the `alpha` CLI (alphaXiv-backed). Use when the user asks about academic papers, wants to find research on a topic, needs to read a specific paper, ask questions about a paper, inspect a paper's code repository, or manage paper annotations.
Autonomous experiment loop that tries ideas, measures results, keeps what works, and discards what doesn't. Use when the user asks to optimize a metric, run an experiment loop, improve performance iteratively, or automate benchmarking.
Contribute changes to the Feynman repository itself. Use when the task is to add features, fix bugs, update prompts or skills, change install or release behavior, improve docs, or prepare a focused PR against this repo.
Execute research code inside isolated Docker containers for safe replication, experiments, and benchmarks. Use when the user selects Docker as the execution environment or asks to run code safely, in isolation, or in a sandbox.
Explain research, papers, or technical ideas in plain English with minimal jargon, concrete analogies, and clear takeaways. Use when the user says "ELI5 this", asks for a simple explanation of a paper or research result, wants jargon removed, or asks what something technically dense actually means.
Inspect active background research work including running processes, scheduled follow-ups, and pending tasks. Use when the user asks what's running, checks on background work, or wants to see scheduled jobs.
Run a literature review using paper search and primary-source synthesis. Use when the user asks for a lit review, paper survey, state of the art, or academic landscape summary on a research topic.
Run GPU workloads on Modal's serverless infrastructure. Use when the user needs remote GPU compute for training, inference, benchmarks, or batch processing and Modal CLI is available.
