SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires semanticscholar, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

The HPQ-Xray-Paper skill analyzes scholarly papers by extracting the problem, perspective, and results, then translates them into ASCII cognitive delta cards to aid understanding and memory.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Extracts the paper's main argument (problem-perspective-result) and renders it as concise, scene-based ASCII cards.
  • Produces structured, decision-ready summaries when users share arXiv links, HTML paper pages, or PDFs.
  • Integrates a router workflow (hpq-xray) to facilitate quick, repeatable analyses for researchers and students.

Quick Start

Provide an arXiv URL or PDF and say 'X-ray this paper' to generate the core extraction and ASCII cognitive cards.

FAQPage Schema
How do I extract core claims from an arXiv paper?▼

Extracting core claims from an arXiv paper requires providing the URL, HTML page, or PDF for analysis. The tool translates the problem-perspective-result structure into decision-ready cognitive summaries.

What is a cognitive-delta card for academic paper analysis?▼

A cognitive-delta card for academic paper analysis is an ASCII-formatted summary that visualizes core claims. It translates the problem-perspective-result structure into concise, scene-based formats for memory retention.

Can I analyze PDFs and HTML pages for research summarization?▼

Yes, you can analyze PDFs and HTML pages for research summarization by providing them to the extraction tool. It processes the document to output the problem-perspective-result structure as ASCII cognitive-delta cards.

Does the paper analysis tool integrate with Semantic Scholar?▼

Yes, the paper analysis tool integrates with Semantic Scholar to facilitate quick, repeatable analyses. This dependency supports extracting problem-perspective-result structures and generating cognitive summaries.

What is the best way to summarize scholarly papers for decision making?▼

The best way to summarize scholarly papers for decision making is extracting the problem-perspective-result structure into ASCII cognitive-delta cards. This approach provides structured, decision-ready summaries from arXiv links or PDFs.

Are there limitations to ASCII-art extraction for academic papers?▼

ASCII-art extraction for academic papers relies on accurately identifying the problem-perspective-result structure. Limitations may arise if the source PDF or HTML page lacks a clear, extractable argument structure.
