SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Organizing and surfacing literature in a collaborative Notion workspace can be tedious when papers live in Markdown notes, docs, or transcripts. This Skill automatically extracts essential metadata from your sources and stores it in a structured Notion database, enabling quick search, filtering, and cross-referencing.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured data extraction: gathers title, venue, year, category, arXiv data, and a concise description for each paper.
  • Notion database population: creates a database or pages and fills fields like Paper, Category, Venue, Year, arXiv ID, arXiv Link, One-liner, and Relevance.
  • Use Case: build a live literature table to track surveyed papers and related-work connections across projects.

Quick Start

Create a Notion database and start importing paper references from your Markdown notes to organize your literature.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a Notion literature database from local Markdown notes?

Notion MCP tools extract paper metadata from local Markdown documents and populate a structured Notion database with fields like Paper, Category, Venue, Year, arXiv ID, and Relevance using the notion-create-database and notion-create-pages APIs.

What metadata fields are extracted when importing paper references into Notion?

Extracted metadata fields include Paper, Category, Venue, Year, arXiv ID, arXiv Link, One-liner, and Relevance. These populate a searchable Notion literature table to track surveyed papers and related-work connections across projects.

Do I need a specific Notion page ID to build a literature table from my documents?

Yes, a target Notion page URL or ID is required to host the database. The Skill uses Notion MCP tools including notion-create-database, notion-create-pages, and notion-fetch to populate the literature table within that specified Notion page.

Can I automatically extract arXiv links and paper titles from local research notes?

Yes, the Skill automatically extracts arXiv IDs, arXiv links, paper titles, venues, and concise descriptions from local documents. It structures this data into a Notion database for quick search, filtering, and cross-referencing of literature.

What is the best way to track surveyed papers and related-work connections in Notion?

Building a structured Notion database with extracted metadata is an effective way to track surveyed papers. This Skill populates fields like Category, One-liner, and Relevance to enable quick search, filtering, and cross-referencing of related-work connections across projects.

Does this Skill work with Notion MCP tools to create database pages automatically?

Yes, the Skill requires Notion MCP tools specifically notion-create-database, notion-create-pages, and notion-fetch to automatically create the database structure and populate it with extracted literature metadata from your local documents.
