SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Maintain research area MOCs by managing project links and canonical papers.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Lean, project-focused MOC maintenance: add/remove project links and canonical papers
  • Enforce rules: only canonical/survey papers are included, avoid paper dumping
  • Bidirectional linking checks to ensure MOCs remain coherent across Projects and MOCs

Quick Start

Add a project and its canonical paper to an MOC, then run the update_moc skill to apply changes.

FAQPage Schema
How do I maintain research area MOCs by adding project links and canonical papers?

To maintain research area MOCs, apply updates to the MOCs/[MOC Name].md file to add or remove project links and canonical papers. The skill validates items and ensures bidirectional linking before applying any changes to keep MOCs coherent.

What are lean MOC rules and how do they prevent paper dumping in research management?

Lean MOC rules enforce that only canonical and survey papers are included in research area MOCs, preventing paper dumping. This project-focused approach ensures MOCs stay connected to relevant projects and maintain strict bidirectional linking across your knowledge base.

How to validate bidirectional linking between projects and MOCs?

Validating bidirectional linking between projects and MOCs requires running the update workflow on MOCs/[MOC Name].md. The skill checks that project links and canonical papers are properly validated and coherent across both Projects and MOCs directories before committing changes.

Can I add a project and its canonical paper to an MOC without manual linking checks?

Yes, you can add a project and its canonical paper to an MOC and run the update process to apply changes automatically. The workflow enforces lean MOC rules and performs bidirectional linking validation, ensuring items are properly checked before updates are finalized.

When should I not use automated MOC updates for research management?

You should avoid automated MOC updates when attempting to include non-canonical papers or bulk paper dumps, as the skill enforces lean MOC rules. It requires proper validation of project links and canonical papers before allowing any changes to the MOC structure.
