nature-reader

What problem does it solve?

nature-reader eliminates the time-consuming work of reading and translating full research papers by producing a bilingual, paragraph-aligned Markdown artifact that preserves source traceability and places figures/tables exactly where they are first meaningfully discussed.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Full-paper bilingual reader: Generates a complete Markdown reading artifact with Original/中文 paragraph-level alignment.
• Figure/table aware extraction: Crops figures and tables into assets and inserts them near the first substantive mention that supports the surrounding prose.
• Stable source anchors & source map: Creates paper.md, source_map.json, and translation_notes.md with page/block IDs for grounded follow-ups.
• When to use: Use for full-paper translation, 原文对照/中英文对照, 图文对应, 全文翻译解读, and source-grounded reading notes; avoid summary-only or citation-only tasks.

Quick Start

Use the nature-reader skill to convert the user-provided paper (PDF/DOI/arXiv/publisher HTML/scanned PDF/pasted text) into a full paper.md bilingual reader with cropped figure/table assets and stable source anchors.
