draft-related-work
From the author
Drafts or rewrites a Related Work / prior work section positioned against actually-retrieved papers — derives the REQUIRED clusters from the paper's own claimed scope (not just whatever was retrieved), clusters prior work into themes, articulates the delta (what this paper adds) per cluster, enforces a per-cluster citation floor and routes empty expected clusters back to find-papers, follows the target community's placement and citation conventions (numeric ACM/IEEE vs natbib author-year, single- vs double-blind self-citation, where the section sits at NeurIPS/CHI/SIGMOD-style venues), and admits only verified citations. Use when the user says "related work", "prior work", "position my paper against the literature", "how do we differ from X", "reviewers said related work is thin/missing/a laundry list", or asks to add citations to a draft. Works from papers found via find-papers and/or an existing .bib — it never invents references.

- related-work-surveyjxtse/scientific-research-skillsConducts a systematic related-work / literature-survey / state-of-the-art review for a research question by defining survey dimensions, searching each axis, building a taxonomy of prior work, identifying the gap, and producing a positioning narrative for a paper's Related Work section. Goes beyond a flat paper list to deliver structured analysis. Use when the user is starting a new research project and needs to map the landscape, asks "what's been done on X?" or "how does my idea compare to existing work?", needs to write or revise a Related Work / Background / Prior Art section, wants to identify a research gap or position their contribution, or asks to build a taxonomy of approaches in a research area.Science★ 76
- draft-surveyShaishavMaisuria/research-paper-lifecycle-skillsTurns a topic into a ranked reading list of the best papers plus a two-column, arXiv-ready literature-review/survey draft grounded in verified citations. Use when a researcher says "write a survey on X", "do a literature review of X", "give me a ranked reading list on X", "what should I read on X first", "draft a survey paper for arXiv", or "two-column related-work survey on X". Searches across DBLP/Crossref/Semantic Scholar/arXiv, ranks candidates by citation impact, venue strength, recency, and citation-graph centrality, clusters them into a taxonomy, verifies every reference, and writes an original-prose survey (intro, taxonomy, per-theme synthesis, open problems) where each claim cites a real, resolved paper. Never fabricates citations, never copies source text — original synthesis only; the author stays the author. Trigger words - survey, literature review, reading list, ranked papers, what to read, arxiv survey, two-column review.Science★ 59
- hri-related-workbrycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-SkillsUse when writing or auditing the related-work and positioning of an ACM/IEEE HRI full paper — covering HRI's crossing literatures (robotics, HCI, psychology, design), writing a delta-first argument that credits each community, and keeping self-citation compatible with double-blind review.Design★ 1.4K
- literature-reviewscdenney/open-science-skillsBuilds or audits a literature review: evidence map, closest prior work, gap verdict, and synthesis plan. Use to check whether a contribution is novel, map what a literature establishes, or organize a review; systematic reviews get a protocol scaffold.Engineering★ 69
- check-originalityShaishavMaisuria/research-paper-lifecycle-skillsChecks a draft for plagiarism, self-plagiarism, text recycling, and uncited near-quotes using several detection methods, and reports overlapping passages so the author can fix them before reviewers or an integrity check do. Use when a researcher says "check for plagiarism", "plagiarism check", "did I copy too much", "self-plagiarism", "text recycling", "am I reusing too much of my own paper", "check originality", "is this too close to the source", or "did I paraphrase closely enough". Compares the draft against sources the user provides (their own prior papers, co-author drafts, suspected sources, or papers fetched on demand), detects internal duplication, and surfaces distinctive phrases to search externally. Honest about scope - it is not iThenticate/Turnitin and has no private publisher corpus; it catches overlap against given sources and publicly findable phrases. Trigger words - plagiarism, self-plagiarism, text recycling, originality, copied, overlap, too close to source, duplicate text.Science★ 59
- ase-related-workbrycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-SkillsUse when writing the related-work and positioning of an ASE (IEEE/ACM Automated Software Engineering) paper, covering the automated-SE literature lanes, delta-first positioning against prior tools/techniques, fair head-to-head framing, and double-anonymous self-citation.Science★ 1.4K
