SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Junshi turns your existing research (papers and notes) plus the latest literature into actionable, ranked ideas you can actually test—so you spend less time scanning and more time doing.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Personalized paper understanding: Reads your papers to build a profile of your methods, themes, and open problems.
  • Daily literature monitoring: Searches arXiv (by categories/keywords) and also checks peer-reviewed venue papers (from a configurable venue set).
  • Ranked “军师 mode” recommendations: Generates bold research directions grounded in your preliminary results, each with a first experiment and a main risk.
  • Automatic daily digests: Saves a daily digest to your local digests folder and can be scheduled via cron.

Quick Start

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate research ideas from my academic papers?

To generate research ideas from your academic papers, this Skill reads your PDFs and notes to build a profile of your methods, then scans arXiv daily to produce ranked, testable directions with first experiments and risks.

Can I monitor arXiv papers and peer-reviewed venues automatically?

Yes, you can monitor arXiv papers and peer-reviewed venues automatically. This Skill performs daily searches by categories and keywords, checks target venues, and writes a daily literature digest to your configured local digests path.

How do I automate daily literature monitoring for my research profile?

You can automate daily literature monitoring by configuring a root SKILL.md entry with your profile and target venues, then scheduling the Skill via cron to output a daily digest of ranked research directions.

Does this research ideation tool work across different academic fields?

Yes, this research ideation tool works across different academic fields. It reads your papers to understand your specific methods and open problems, then scans relevant literature to generate personalized recommendations.

What is the best way to turn paper summaries into testable experiments?

The best way to turn paper summaries into testable experiments is using the ranked recommendation mode, which grounds bold research directions in your preliminary results and pairs each idea with a first experiment and a main risk.

Do I need a specific configuration file to parse PDFs and generate a research digest?

Yes, you need a root SKILL.md entry with YAML metadata to configure your local profile, target venues, and digests path before the Skill can parse your PDFs and output the daily research digest.
