Generate and rank research ideas given a broad direction. Use when user says "找idea", "brainstorm ideas", "generate research ideas", "what can we work on", or wants to explore a research area for publishable directions.
Search and analyze research papers, find related work, summarize key ideas. Use when user says "find papers", "related work", "literature review", "what does this paper say", or needs to understand academic papers.
Use when experiments complete to judge what claims the results support, what they don't, and what evidence is still missing. Codex MCP evaluates results against intended claims and routes to next action (pivot, supplement, or confirm). Use after experiments finish — before writing the paper or running ablations.
Persistent research knowledge base that accumulates papers, ideas, experiments, claims, and their relationships across the entire research lifecycle. Inspired by Karpathy's LLM Wiki pattern. Use when user says "知识库", "research wiki", "add paper", "wiki query", "查知识库", or wants to build/query a persistent field map.
Analyze ARIS usage logs and propose optimizations to SKILL.md files, reviewer prompts, and workflow defaults. Outer-loop harness optimization inspired by Meta-Harness (Lee et al., 2026). Use when user says "优化技能", "meta optimize", "improve skills", "分析使用记录", or wants to optimize ARIS's own harness components based on accumulated experience.
Workflow 1.5: Bridge between idea discovery and auto review. Reads EXPERIMENT_PLAN.md, implements experiment code, deploys to GPU, collects initial results. Use when user says "实现实验", "implement experiments", "bridge", "从计划到跑实验", "deploy the plan", or has an experiment plan ready to execute.
Compile LaTeX paper to PDF, fix errors, and verify output. Use when user says "编译论文", "compile paper", "build PDF", "生成PDF", or wants to compile LaTeX into a submission-ready PDF.
Autonomous multi-round research review loop. Repeatedly reviews via Codex MCP, implements fixes, and re-reviews until positive assessment or max rounds reached. Use when user says "auto review loop", "review until it passes", or wants autonomous iterative improvement.
