| description | Build or use a local paper RAG / paper knowledge base for PDF, arXiv, LaTeX source, MinerU Markdown, paper notes, and citation-grounded question answering. Use when the user asks for Paper RAG, local paper library search, paper QA, formula lookup, implementation checks against a paper, or multi-paper evidence retrieval. |
Paper RAG
Use this skill for retrieval-grounded paper work, not freeform literature synthesis.
Workflow:
- Identify the source corpus: PDFs, arXiv IDs, MinerU Markdown, LaTeX source, Obsidian notes, Feishu pages, or Zotero entries.
- Prefer structured paper artifacts already in the vault: paper cards, deep-dive notes, English manuscript, Chinese translation, and assets.
- Extract metadata: title, authors, venue, year, PDF/arXiv, code/project links, sections, equations, figures, datasets, and metrics.
- Answer with source-grounded citations or local file references. Separate
source says, inference, and citation needed.
- For implementation checks, quote or paraphrase the exact relevant method/equation/ablation first, then compare code/config.
Do not treat vector search output as a finished literature review. For survey structure, hand off to survey-builder or academic-research-skills.
