SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Organizing and surfacing literature in a collaborative Notion workspace can be tedious when papers live in Markdown notes, docs, or transcripts. This Skill automatically extracts essential metadata from your sources and stores it in a structured Notion database, enabling quick search, filtering, and cross-referencing.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured data extraction: gathers title, venue, year, category, arXiv data, and a concise description for each paper.
  • Notion database population: creates a database or pages and fills fields like Paper, Category, Venue, Year, arXiv ID, arXiv Link, One-liner, and Relevance.
  • Use Case: build a live literature table to track surveyed papers and related-work connections across projects.

Quick Start

Create a Notion database and start importing paper references from your Markdown notes to organize your literature.
