dav-niu474 Bundle Stock Analysis 2Comprehensive stock market analysis skill covering A-share (China), Hong Kong, and US equities. Priority use cases: stock analysis and buy/sell/hold recommendations by ticker code, generating decision dashboards and research reports with technical/fundamental/sentiment analysis, position-aware investment strategies based on user's cost price, dividend income scoring and safety analysis, rumor and early market signal scanning (M&A, insider activity, analyst actions), watchlist management with price target and stop-loss alerts, and K-line chart pattern recognition from images. This skill should be the primary choice whenever users mention a stock ticker, ask whether to buy or sell a stock, reference their holding cost or position, request dividend analysis, ask about market rumors or early signals, want to add/check/manage a watchlist, or upload a chart image for technical analysis.

wenyuchiou Bundle Literature Triage Matrix 2Turn a list of papers (Zotero collection, Obsidian cluster, manual list) into a compact comparison matrix written to .research/literature_matrix.md, instead of generic per-paper summaries. Use when the user asks to "make a literature matrix", "compare these papers by method/data/limitations", or "decide which papers are central to my review". If the user says "extract the claims from these papers": cross-paper comparison matrix → this skill; claims from their own manuscript draft → `paper-memory-builder`; per-cited-paper Key Findings → `paper-summarize`. This skill compares a KNOWN paper set; to turn a research area into a go/no-go decision on a candidate thesis/proposal topic, use `gap-to-topic`.
-
wenyuchiou Bundle Research Project Orienter 2Read the .research/ manifest files at a project root and produce a single orientation memo (research question, datasets, current stage, key entrypoints, evidence artifacts, open questions). Use when the user asks to "orient me in this project", "what is this repo about", or "build a context map for this paper" — and the project already has .research/ manifests (or trigger research-context-compressor first).
-
wenyuchiou Bundle Research Context Compressor 2Inspect a research repository and write a compact `.research/` workspace manifest (project_manifest.yml, experiment_matrix.yml, data_dictionary.yml) so future AI sessions can orient themselves without rescanning the whole repo. Use when the user asks to "compress this project context", "create a research manifest", or "save the project context for future agents".
-
tenwalk Bundle Ieee Search 2Search, verify, and organize literature for IEEE communications manuscripts: JSAC, TWC, TCOM, WCL, CL, IEEE conference papers, arXiv preprints, DOI/Crossref metadata, BibTeX, related-work matrices, novelty checks, and citation-gap audits. Use this when the user asks to "find papers", "latest IEEE papers", "related work", "verify DOI", "make BibTeX", "查文献", "找IEEE论文", "补参考文献", or compare a manuscript's claims against prior work. Use live search or available connectors for current facts; never fabricate bibliographic metadata.
-
tenwalk Bundle Ieee Citation 2Format references and in-text citations to IEEE style, and prepare Index Terms and IEEEtran bibliography setup. Use this whenever the user needs to "format references in IEEE", "fix my bibliography", "convert these citations to IEEE", "make a .bib for IEEEtran", "number my citations", "参考文献改成 IEEE 格式", "整理引用", or asks how in-text numbered citations and the reference list should look for an IEEE journal. Also covers Index Terms and EDICS selection ("选 EDICS", "Index Terms 怎么写"). Never fabricate DOIs, page numbers, volumes, EDICS codes, or any bibliographic field — flag missing metadata instead.
-

Takes a research repository and produces a publication-ready LaTeX manuscript for top ML/AI conferences (NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, AAAI, COLM). Covers repo understanding, structure planning, section drafting, citation management, anti-AI polishing, and conference formatting. Triggers on "write paper", "draft paper", "scholar writing", "paper writing workflow".
-
catlog22 Bundle Scholar Ideation 2Research ideation workflow from literature search to research planning. Triggers on "brainstorm research ideas", "identify research gaps", "conduct gap analysis", "start research project", "conduct literature review", "define research question", "select research method", "plan research", "research ideation".

pedronauck Bundle Kb 2Comprehensive skill for the `kb` CLI and the Karpathy Knowledge Base pattern. Covers the full KB lifecycle — topic scaffolding, multi-source ingestion (URLs, files, YouTube videos and channels, Instagram reels, bookmarks, codebases), wiki article compilation, cross-article querying with file-back, lint-and-heal passes, QMD indexing, and hybrid search. Also covers the OKF (Open Knowledge Format) dual-mode lifecycle: per-topic `mode: wiki|okf`, scaffolding portable OKF bundles, promoting compiled wiki concepts into a typed catalog with `kb promote`, the four-producer-field + relative-link contract, a local concept-type vocabulary, and OKF v0.1 conformance checking with `kb okf check`. Also covers codebase-specific analysis via inspect commands for complexity, coupling, blast radius, dead code, circular dependencies, symbol/file lookups, backlinks, and code smells. Use when working with kb CLI commands, knowledge base workflows, code vault generation, code graph analysis, code metrics inspection, wiki compilatio
-
pedronauck Bundle Kb Yt Channel 2Creates and maintains Knowledge Base topics from YouTube channels by scaffolding a yt-channels topic, bulk-ingesting transcripts through kb ingest channel, and validating/indexing the result. Use when turning a YouTube channel into a Karpathy KB topic. Do not use for single-video ingestion, general video summaries, or non-YouTube sources.
-
profsynapse Bundle Kg Ingest 2Ingest a research paper (or a batch) into the library's atomic knowledge graph the Agents-K1 way. Use when you are handed a paper (URL, arXiv id, or a note already in library/) and you want it folded in as typed concept atoms, mechanisms, lineage edges, and a patched paper note, reconciled against the atoms already in the vault rather than re-extracted from scratch. Also use to backfill spine papers not yet atomized. This is the standing ingestion posture for growing the graph one paper at a time.

stempeck Bundle Architecture Docs 2Generate or refresh `/docs/architecture/` — the current-state source of architectural truth for this codebase, grounded in code and git history (NOT in .designs/). Produces an anchor-dense corpus (`invariants.md`, `idioms.md`, `trust-boundaries.md`, `seams.md`, `subsystems/*.md`, `history.md`, `gaps.md`) plus a high-level overview layer (C4 L1/L2 diagrams, sequence flows, Nygard ADRs). Every claim is anchored to a file:line or commit SHA, or labelled literally `"unknown — needs review"`. A bundled `validate.sh` mechanically enforces citation density and phase-completion gates. Used to ground future design reviews so they cannot silently drift away from established idioms.
-
iabstergo1 Skill Kb Query 2Read-only query of the existing study knowledge base, persisting a query-session (without writing any vault file). Use when the user asks "what does the KB say about X / search my wiki / what was that Y I learned / has Z ever been covered". Read-only; to keep a conclusion in the wiki, follow up explicitly with kb-save.

Use when asked to "diligence [company]", "research this startup for an investment", "build a deal memo", or to prep for a founder call. Runs parallel web research with strict citation rules and produces a nine-section memo that separates verified facts from claims. Never outputs an invest/pass recommendation.
-
shareai-lab Bundle Deep Architecture Research 2Deeply research technical architecture, source code, mechanisms, SDKs, frameworks, project comparisons, and system-design options across repositories, history, official docs, issues, discussions, and high-quality community signals. Use when the user asks for deep research, source-level understanding, architecture comparison, mechanism satisfaction, or evidence for designing a system. Always map the question and obtain confirmation before beginning substantive research; skip for simple factual lookups or straightforward implementation tasks.
