Instructions
-
Read the context files:
docs/paper/analysis_checklist.md - analysis tracking (source of truth for status)
docs/paper/outline.md - the paper outline
-
Find relevant sections based on the user's query:
- Search checklist for analysis status and notebook details
- Search outline for related sections

Present a context summary:
## Analysis: [name]
### From Checklist (source of truth)

/writeup to document findings as a GitHub Issue
Notes
- Workflow:
/paper (context) -> analysis -> /writeup (GitHub Issue) -> update checklist
- Source of truth for status:
analysis_checklist.md only
- All files evolve - always read fresh, don't assume content
- Keep summaries concise - extract only what's relevant
