What problem does it solve?

This skill automates the process of downloading academic papers and converting them into readable Markdown using mineru, storing results under the project's papers/ directory and preserving existing naming conventions to map Paper-IDs to local code directories.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated paper acquisition: Retrieve PDFs from canonical sources (arXiv, OpenReview, etc.) and convert them to Markdown with extracted metadata and figures.
  • Markdown output: Produce a readable, nicely formatted Markdown document ready for review or incorporation into notes.
  • Use Case: When a user asks for a paper by short-name or URL that isn't yet in papers/, fetch and parse it to create papers/<ID>/<ID>.md and related assets.

Quick Start

Ask the skill to download and parse a specified paper by URL or local code-dir name to generate a Markdown entry under papers/.
