Summary

A Python framework for structuring research pipelines as semantic execution units (Claude Skills), where each skill declares inputs/outputs, acceptance criteria, and guardrails. It employs an evidence-first methodology to prevent hollow writing through structured intermediate artifacts.

Key features

• Semantic execution units (Claude Skills)
• Declared inputs/outputs and acceptance criteria
• Guardrails for pipeline safety
• Evidence-first methodology
• Structured intermediate artifacts
• Prevents hollow writing in research

Use cases

• Research paper writing pipelines
• Structured research project management
• Academic workflow automation
• Evidence-based documentation generation
• Collaborative research tooling
• Reproducible research processes

README excerpt

# research-units-pipeline-skills > Languages: **English** | [简体中文](README.zh-CN.md) An Auto Research Design System for agent-assisted research work. This repository combines **semantic research skills** with a **file-first harness**. It is meant for people using coding agents such as Codex to run research workflows without losing the intermediate evidence. A run becomes a durable workspace: planned units, intermediate artifacts, checkpoints, audits, and improvement records. The short version: ```text intent -> workflow -> workspace -> unit -> skill -> artifact -> audit -> improvement ``` It is not a generic workflow engine, a prompt collection, or a claim that research can be fully automated. The repo is narrower and more practical: it keeps research work inspectable, resumable, and improvable while the model handles the semantic reading and writing. ## What It Produces Use this repo when the output matters enough that you want files, checkpoints, and reviewable evidence rather than a one-off chat answer. | Goal | Path to use | Main deliverable | |---|---|---| | Evidence-first literature survey | `arxiv-survey` | `output/DRAFT.md` | | Survey with LaTeX/PDF delivery | `arxiv-survey-latex` | `output/DRAFT.md`, `latex/main.pdf` | | Course paper or end-of-term report from a topic | Use `arxiv-survey` for Markdown or `arxiv-survey-latex` for PDF; this is a use-case overlay, not a new workflow | report draft, optional PDF | | Fast topic briefing and reading path | `research-brief` | `output/SNAPSHOT.md` | | Single-paper critique or referee-style review | `paper-review` | `output/REVIEW.md` | | Protocol-driven evidence synthesis | `evidence-review` | `output/SYNTHESIS.md` | | Literature-grounded research ideas | `idea-brainstorm` | `output/REPORT.md`, `output/REPORT.j
