What problem does it solve?
This Skill solves the challenge of preparing a research repository for open-source release by automating the consolidation of scattered code, polishing documentation, and ensuring the project is legible for external readers.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Evidence-Based Consolidation: Automatically gathers code from scratch directories into the project codebase only if it is cited, executed, or reproduces results.
- Automated README Compilation: Generates a professional README by mapping project artifacts, results, and methods into a structured, verified document.
- Hygiene & Safety Sweep: Performs a blocking check for secrets, machine-local paths, and license conflicts before release.
- Use Case: When a researcher wants to publish their AI project, this Skill ensures the repository is clean, the README is accurate, and no sensitive local environment data is accidentally exposed.
