/novelty

You can verify research novelty by cross-checking your idea against web search results, Semantic Scholar, arXiv preprints, and internal wiki knowledge to produce a conservative novelty score with actionable differentiation guidance.

Novelty scoring applies multi-query search coverage across Semantic Scholar, DeepXiv, and arXiv to extract deduplicated prior work, then uses a Review LLM to cross-verify and assign a 1–5 novelty score with closest prior work recommendations.

Yes, novelty verification accepts paper identifiers such as titles or arXiv URLs, comparing the specified paper against existing literature and internal wiki concepts to determine if the research idea has been duplicated.

Yes, when you provide the --write flag with a wiki idea slug, the skill saves only the resulting novelty_score to the idea page frontmatter at wiki/ideas/{slug}.md and logs the write operation.

Novelty verification cross-checks proposed ideas using WebSearch, Semantic Scholar, DeepXiv hybrid search, recent arXiv preprints, and internal wiki papers, concepts, and ideas to ensure comprehensive multi-source coverage.
