SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

External multi-source research runs across configured adapters (arxiv, semantic_scholar, github_search, brave-search) to gather diverse sources with citations, returning a bibliographic report instead of opinion.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Bibliographic research: query state-of-the-art results, prior art, and landscape mappings across multiple sources with attached citations.
  • Structured report: outputs a narrative with a dedicated "Sources used" section and a reproducible context for traceability.
  • Safe and guided use: pairs with mma-investigate for internal codebase investigations or mma-explore for broader cross-domain exploration.

Quick Start

Prompt mma-research to fetch recent papers on transformer models in biology and return a cited bibliography.

FAQPage Schema
How do I compile external research sources with citations across multiple databases?

To compile external research with citations, query state-of-the-art results across multiple adapters like arxiv and semantic scholar. The system gathers diverse sources and returns a structured bibliographic report with a dedicated sources table for traceability.

What is the best way to map the research landscape for prior art?

Mapping prior art landscapes is best done by querying multiple sources simultaneously to return a cited bibliography instead of opinion. This generates a reproducible context and a structured report detailing the relevant state-of-the-art.

Can I use brave-search and github_search for academic bibliographic research?

Yes, you can use brave-search and github_search alongside arxiv and semantic scholar for academic bibliographic research. These adapters gather diverse external sources, generating a comprehensive cited report for landscape mapping and prior art discovery.

Do I need specific environment keys to fetch cited bibliographies from arxiv and semantic scholar?

Yes, fetching cited bibliographies requires specific environment keys configured beforehand. The task adheres to the skill's configuration prerequisites, using the required environment keys to access adapters and produce a structured, citeable output.

How do I generate a reproducible bibliographic report for state-of-the-art research?

Generate a reproducible bibliographic report by querying your research topic across configured adapters. The output provides a narrative with a dedicated sources used section, ensuring traceability for state-of-the-art research and prior art investigations.

When should I pair external multi-source research with internal codebase investigation?

Pair external multi-source research with internal codebase investigation when you need both prior art context and code-level understanding. Use mma-investigate for internal codebase queries or mma-explore for broader cross-domain exploration alongside the cited bibliography.
