research-ideation
Guides research ideation through a 5-step goal-driven workflow: define long-term goal, build literature tree (novelty + challenge-insight), select a problem (well-established solution check), design a solution (cross-domain transfer + decomposition), validate and iterate. Also covers structured paper reading (3 depth levels). Use when: user wants to find a research direction, brainstorm ideas, build field vision, do a literature review, evaluate idea novelty, or read papers systematically. Do NOT use for comparing/ranking existing ideas (use idea-tournament) or planning a paper (use paper-planning).

evo-memory
Manages persistent research memory across ideation and experimentation cycles. Maintains two stores: Ideation Memory M_I (feasible/unsuccessful directions) and Experimentation Memory M_E (reusable strategies for data processing, model training, architecture, debugging). Three evolution mechanisms: IDE (after idea-tournament), IVE (after experiment failure — classifies failures as implementation vs fundamental), ESE (after experiment success — extracts reusable strategies). Use when: updating memory after completing idea tournaments or experiment pipelines, classifying why a method failed (implementation vs fundamental failure), starting a new research cycle needing prior knowledge, user mentions 'update memory', 'classify failure', 'what worked before', 'research history', 'evolution'. Do NOT use for running experiments (use experiment-pipeline), debugging experiment code (use experiment-craft), or generating ideas (use idea-tournament).

experiment-craft
Use this skill when the user wants to debug, diagnose, or systematically iterate on an experiment that already exists, or when they need a structured experiment log for tracking runs, hypotheses, failures, results, and next steps during active research. Apply it to underperforming methods, training that will not converge, regressions after a change, inconsistent results across datasets, aimless experimentation without progress, and questions like 'why doesn't this work?', 'no progress after many attempts', or 'how should I investigate this failure?'. Also use it for setting up practical experiment logging/record-keeping that supports debugging and iteration. Do not use it for designing a brand-new experiment pipeline or full experiment program (use experiment-pipeline), generating research ideas, fixing isolated coding/syntax errors, or writing retrospective summaries into research memory/notes/knowledge bases.

experiment-iterative-coder
Iterative code refinement through plan → code → evaluate → refine cycles. Runs lint checks (ruff), tests (pytest), and structured self-evaluation each cycle, then diagnoses failures and refines. Decomposes complex tasks into sequential phases, iterates up to 3 times per phase (10 total). Use when: the main agent delegates a code task with 'MODE: MORE_EFFORT', the user selects 'More Effort' code generation mode, or the task explicitly requests iterative refinement for higher code quality. Do NOT use for single-pass code generation (Lite mode), experiment pipeline orchestration (use experiment-pipeline), or diagnosing a specific experiment failure (use experiment-craft).

experiment-pipeline
Guides structured 4-stage experiment execution with attempt budgets and gate conditions: Stage 1 initial implementation (reproduce baseline), Stage 2 hyperparameter tuning, Stage 3 proposed method validation, Stage 4 ablation study. Integrates with evo-memory (load prior strategies, trigger IVE/ESE) and experiment-craft (5-step diagnostic on failure). Use when: user has a planned experiment, needs to reproduce baselines, organize experiment workflow, or systematically validate a method. Do NOT use for debugging a specific experiment failure (use experiment-craft) or designing which experiments to run (use paper-planning).

idea-tournament
Guides competitive idea generation and ranking using tree-structured search (up to N_I=21 candidates across technique/domain/formulation axes) and Elo tournaments (4 dimensions: novelty, feasibility, relevance, clarity). Produces a ranked direction summary and full research proposal. Use when: user has a research direction and needs concrete ranked ideas, wants to compare multiple approaches, or mentions 'rank ideas', 'compare approaches', 'which idea is best', 'research proposal'. Do NOT use for finding a research direction from scratch (use research-ideation) or planning the paper itself (use paper-planning).

nano-banana
Generate professional presentation slides and high-quality illustrations using Gemini image generation API (Nano Banana 2), with interactive browser-based review and iterative editing. Full workflow: content planning conversation → slides_plan.json → batch image generation → review with feedback → targeted slide editing → PPTX packaging. Use when: user wants to create a presentation, make slides, generate a PPT/PPTX, prepare a talk deck, design visual slide content, or generate high-quality figures/illustrations for papers and documents. Do NOT use for: writing academic papers (use paper-writing) or planning academic conference talk narrative structure (use academic-slides).

paper-navigator
End-to-end academic paper workflow: disambiguate queries, discover papers (search, citation traversal, recommendations, arXiv monitoring, trending, GitHub search), evaluate (TLDR, citations, code, SOTA), read with structured analysis (3-level strategy), and organize into literature maps or reports. Use when: finding papers, reading a paper, related work, literature survey, citation analysis, research trends, SOTA results, datasets, or literature reports. Do NOT use for writing a literature review section (use paper-writing), comparing research ideas (use idea-tournament), or planning paper structure (use paper-planning).

paper-planning
Guides pre-writing planning for academic papers with 4 structured steps: story design (task-challenge-insight-contribution-advantage), experiment planning (comparisons + ablations), figure design (pipeline + teaser), and 4-week timeline management. Includes counterintuitive planning tactics (write a mock rejection letter to identify weaknesses before writing, narrow before broad claims, design ablations first). Use when: user wants to plan a paper before writing, design story/contributions, plan experiments, create figure sketches, set a writing timeline, or write a pre-emptive rejection letter for planning purposes. Do NOT use for actual writing (use paper-writing), running experiments (use experiment-pipeline), self-reviewing a finished draft (use paper-review), or finding research problems (use research-ideation).

paper-rebuttal
Guides writing effective rebuttals after receiving peer review feedback. Covers review diagnosis (score-driven color-coding), response strategy (champion identification, common-theme consolidation), tactical writing (18 rules), and counterintuitive rebuttal principles. Use when: user received reviewer scores/comments, needs to write a rebuttal or author response, wants to respond to specific criticism (e.g. 'limited novelty', 'missing baselines'), mentions 'rebuttal', 'reviewer comments', 'author response', or 'respond to reviewers'. Do NOT use for pre-submission self-review (use paper-review instead).

paper-review
Guides self-review of YOUR OWN academic paper before submission with adversarial stress-testing. Core method: 5-aspect checklist (contribution sufficiency, writing clarity, results quality, testing completeness, method design), counterintuitive protocol (reject-first simulation, delete unsupported claims, score trust, promote limitations, attack novelty), reverse-outlining, and figure/table quality checks. Use when: user wants to self-review or self-check their own paper draft before submission, stress-test their claims, prepare for reviewer criticism, or mentions 'self-review', 'check my draft', 'is my paper ready'. Do NOT use for writing a peer review of someone else's paper, and do NOT use after receiving actual reviews (use paper-rebuttal instead).

paper-writing
Guides writing academic papers section by section using an 11-step workflow with LaTeX templates and counterintuitive writing tactics. Covers Abstract, Introduction, Method, Experiments, Related Work, Conclusion, and Supplementary. Use when: user asks to write or draft a paper section, needs LaTeX templates, wants to improve academic writing quality, optimize novelty framing, or mentions 'write introduction', 'draft method', 'paper writing'. Do NOT use for pre-submission review (use paper-review), experiment execution (use experiment-pipeline), or paper planning/story design (use paper-planning).

academic-slides
Use this skill for creating or refining an academic slide deck and the talk built around it: structuring a conference talk, thesis defense, lab meeting, or paper-to-slides deck; deciding the narrative arc and slide breakdown; improving slide design and visual hierarchy; planning rehearsal, timing, Q&A, and backup slides; or generating the .pptx. Reach for it when the user is shaping the presentation itself. Do not use for writing the paper, producing standalone speaker notes/scripts/transcripts, making posters, creating isolated figures/charts outside a slide deck, or building non-academic presentations.
