research-scoping
by dozybot001
Guidelines for scoping research ideas into actionable tasks. Use when the root idea is broad or ambiguous to ensure appropriate granularity and feasibility. Helps with initial decomposition. Apply at root (task "0") and when refining broad sub-tasks.
dependency-rules
by dozybot001
Rules for task dependencies in decomposition. Use when defining dependencies in Decompose/AddTasks to ensure acyclic, sibling-only, correct execution order. Critical for valid plan structure.
source-attribution
by dozybot001
Ensure research reports, comparison reports, and synthesis documents include proper citations and a References section. Use when task output is a Markdown report with quantitative claims, benchmarks, or findings that require source attribution for credibility. Load alongside markdown-reporter or web-research for citation-heavy tasks.
research-templates
by dozybot001
Three academic research templates (Heilmeier, scientific discovery, system optimization) with schemas and use cases. Use when RefineIdea to align output structure with research type.
decomposition-patterns
by dozybot001
Common patterns for decomposing research tasks. Use when decomposing complex tasks to ensure MECE (mutually exclusive, collectively exhaustive) splits and clear phase boundaries. Essential for Decompose tool. Apply when CheckAtomicity returns atomic=false.
atomicity-criteria
by dozybot001
Criteria for judging if a task is atomic (executable in one step). Use with CheckAtomicity to decide when to Decompose vs FormatTask. Essential for atomicity decisions. Apply when processing each task in the planning workflow.
literature-grounding
by dozybot001
Guidelines for citing literature in refined ideas. Use [Source ID: X] format when referencing papers. Apply when RefineIdea output should be grounded in retrieved papers.
topic-refinement
by dozybot001
Guidelines for refining broad or fuzzy ideas into concrete research topics. Use when user input is vague to guide ExtractKeywords and RefineIdea. Includes RESEARCH_TOPIC_SCHEMA and refinement tactics.
concept-dev
by ddunnock
This skill should be used when the user asks to "develop a concept", "explore a new idea", "brainstorm a system concept", "do concept development", "create a concept document", "run Phase A", "define the problem and architecture", or mentions concept exploration, feasibility studies, concept of operations, system concept, architecture exploration, solution landscape, or NASA Phase A.
paper-evaluation
by dozybot001
Criteria for evaluating paper relevance (EvaluatePapers) and filtering (FilterPapers). Use before EvaluatePapers/FilterPapers to ensure consistent scoring and selection. Score 1–5, should_retry when score < 3.
keyword-extraction
by dozybot001
Guidelines for extracting arXiv search keywords from fuzzy research ideas. Use before ExtractKeywords or when EvaluatePapers suggests retry. Ensures keywords are technical, domain-specific, and suitable for literature retrieval.
web-research
by dozybot001
Conduct web research, gather information from multiple sources, and synthesize findings. Use when task involves searching, comparing sources, or aggregating information. Covers process, synthesis techniques, and output structure. Note: MAARS Task Agent uses provided artifacts and general knowledge—no live web search.
refined-idea-quality
by dozybot001
Quality criteria for refined_idea output. Use before RefineIdea or when ValidateRefinedIdea returns low score. Focus on concrete, decomposable, and specific output.
rag-research-template
by dozybot001
Advanced RAG-style research schema with literature-grounded fields. Use when RefineIdea for hardware-aware or citation-heavy proposals.
research
by acking-you
Structured web research with multi-source validation. Output reports with complete citation links. Focus on key results, verify information quality.
deep-research
by srstomp
Use for multi-day technology evaluations, competitive analysis, architectural exploration, best practices research, or major strategic decisions requiring comprehensive investigation and stakeholder reports. Unlike spike (time-boxed hours), supports extended multi-day investigation.
literature-synthesis
by dozybot001
Synthesize literature, findings, or multiple sources into a coherent report. Use when task involves literature review, synthesizing research, or combining multiple inputs into themes and conclusions.
