To convert an arXiv paper into structured literature notes, normalize the source input to generate a consistent paper object, then analyze it to produce local Markdown paper cards, literature matrices, and research notes.

Yes, you can resolve academic papers using a DOI URL, arXiv link, local PDF, or pasted title. The Skill identifies the exact source and normalizes the input into consistent metadata before analysis.

The best way to build a literature matrix from multiple research papers is to resolve each source, perform deep reading and cross-paper synthesis, and output the comparisons into a local Markdown literature matrix.

Yes, you need pypdf installed as a dependency to process local PDF files, resolve their academic sources, and convert them into reusable Markdown research notes and paper cards.

To critique and identify research gaps across related academic papers, use the deep reading and synthesis features to compare methods, summarize findings, and generate structured notes highlighting gaps for follow-up experiments.

Markdown paper cards provide reusable, evidence-backed judgments for academic literature triage, allowing you to quickly assess single papers and save structured outputs locally for planning follow-up experiments.
