field-onboarding

De la autor

Guide a researcher step by step into an unfamiliar research field, or decode a paper, abstract, figure caption, or referee comment they cannot parse. Builds understanding in rungs (motivation, vocabulary, core framework, methods, frontier), anchored to what the user already knows, with a checkpoint before each advance. Use when the user says they are new to a field, asks what a research area or method is, says an explanation was too technical, asks to be walked through something step by step, asks for a reading path, or supplies dense research text. Trigger even when the user only names an unfamiliar field or pastes an abstract without asking to be taught. Do not trigger for a one-line summary, a short overview request, or a direct factual answer; do not use it for translation, editing, search, debugging, or specialist questions inside the user's own field. Also trigger in other languages, including Chinese such as 入门, 一步一步讲, 看不懂, 这篇论文讲什么, 帮我理解这个领域.
