# Paper Explainer Skill

这是一个专门用于解读 AI/CS 领域技术论文的技能。

**目标读者**：产品经理、运营、业务负责人——对 AI 感兴趣，但没有算法/工程背景。  
**核心目标**：去掉学术腔和工程术语，用”讲故事”的方式说清楚三件事：
1. 这个技术在解决什么痛点？
2. 它怎么做到的？（用类比，不用公式）
3. 对我们的产品/业务意味着什么机会？

## 核心能力
1.  **故事化叙事**：不复述摘要，而是从”旧方案有什么死穴”开始讲，讲到”新突破怎么绕过去的”。
2.  **视觉化解构**：对最难懂的概念画”极简对比图”或”流程演进图”，让不懂技术的人看一眼就明白。
3.  **沉浸式研报**：生成莫兰迪配色的 HTML 单文件，带关键数字卡片、结论高亮块，提供优质的阅读体验。

## 依赖说明
- **图像生成**：本技能将直接生成 **SVG 矢量图代码**，无需外部 API 调用。这能确保生成的图表精准、清晰且风格统一。
- **联网搜索**：需要调用 WebSearch 或 WebFetch 工具来处理 URL 输入。

## 工作流程 (Workflow)

当用户提供一篇论文（PDF、文本或 **URL链接**）并要求解读时，**在开始之前先读取 `prompts/narrative.md` 和 `prompts/visual.md`**，然后按以下步骤执行：

### Step 0: 内容获取

- **本地文件**：直接读取。
- **URL**：用 `WebFetch` 抓取；内容截断时用 `WebSearch` 找 arXiv 纯文本页重新抓取；过滤导航/广告，只保留正文。

### Step 1: 理解论文，构建叙事脉络

读完全文后，在内存中整理三个问题的答案：
1. 旧方案的死穴是什么？（对应 Phase 1）
2. 新方案的核心思路是什么？最适合用什么类比解释？（对应 Phase 2）
3. 对 PM 而言最重要的结论和机会点是什么？（对应 Phase 4）

同时标记 **2-3 个”视觉锚点”**：最抽象、用文字说不清楚、但画一张图就能秒懂的概念。优先考虑 Before/After 对比图。

### Step 2: 按叙事框架撰写正文

严格按照 `prompts/narrative.md` 的五个 Phase 撰写，写到视觉锚点时直接内联生成 SVG（参考 `prompts/visual.md` 的规范）。

**SVG 生成要点**：
- 先选图表类型（对比图/流程图/模块图），再动笔
- SVG 直接嵌入文档，不保存为外部文件
- 每张图只讲一个概念，不超过 5 个元素

### Step 3: 生成 HTML 研报

按照 `prompts/html_style.md` 的规范将正文转为完整 HTML：

1. Phase 0 之后必须插入 `stat-cards`，展示 1-3 个最重要的对比数字
2. Phase 4 的”选型建议”必须用 `insight-box` 呈现
3. 代价/风险用 `warning-box` 标出
4. SVG 直接内联到 HTML 中，不使用 `<img>` 外链
5. 保存为 `./output/{paper_keyword}_report.html`

## 文件管理规范 (File Management)
- **输出根目录**：`./output/` (相对于当前项目工作目录)

Research Craft

nik1t7n/research-craft-skill

Use when planning, reviewing, or improving research work: choosing research problems, designing ML/AI experiments, reading papers, building experiment loops, analyzing outputs, writing research notes, or turning vague curiosity into a disciplined research plan. Emphasizes avoiding absorbed problems, upgrading information inputs beyond shared reading lists, and reasoning backward from outcomes the researcher genuinely wants to exist.

Genesis Architect

maioio/genesis-architect

Use when starting a new project. Genesis finds real production failures from similar GitHub repos, then builds a working MVP immediately - not just documents. Two modes: fast-mvp (5 min research cap, builds right after) and deep-research (full analysis). Success = user can run the project. Triggers on: "genesis init [vision]", "I want to build X", "scaffold", "new project", "set up project", "start building", "create a tool", "make a CLI", "bootstrap", "בנה פרויקט", "צור פרויקט", "התחל פרויקט".
