Academic Reading Workflow

Purpose

Execute systematic reading of academic papers, books, and complex texts using Blue's (OSP) 3-phase methodology: summary-first reading, active annotation with searchable keyword system, and evidence-based writing.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when:

• ✅ Reading academic papers or dense books requiring deep understanding
• ✅ Building searchable knowledge base from readings
• ✅ Need to retain and find information later ("command-F in real life")
• ✅ Preparing to write evidence-based essays/analyses with citations

Do NOT use for:

• ❌ Quick skimming (<30 min)
• ❌ Casual reading without note-taking
• ❌ Fiction/entertainment reading
• ❌ Already familiar material (just creating citations)

Decision Tree: See references/decision-tree.md

Quick Reference

Optional: Use evidence-based-writing skill separately when ready to write (not part of this workflow)

Agent Coordination Protocol

Sequential Execution

Each step passes deliverables to next step. Do NOT proceed if Quality Gate fails.

Agent Roles

• researcher: Roadmap creation, reading, annotation (Steps 0, 1, 2)
• analyst: Validation, quality checks, keyword standardization (Step 3)

Annotation Storage Format

All annotations stored as Markdown with YAML frontmatter:

---
source: "[Title] - [Author] ([Year])"
page: [number]
keywords: [keyword1, keyword2, keyword3]
date_annotated: [YYYY-MM-DD]
project: [research-topic-slug]
annotation_id: [unique-id]
---

**Summary**: [Your paraphrase in own words]

**Quote** (if applicable): "[Exact text]" (p. [X])

**Why This Matters**: [Connection to research question]

**Links**: See also [Page Y], Conflicts with [Source B]

Memory MCP Tags

Store with: WHO=[agent], WHEN=[timestamp], PROJECT=[topic], WHY=annotation, SOURCE=[title], PAGE=[number]

Blue's Core Principles

This workflow embeds Blue's (OSP) methodology:

See references/blue-methodology.md for full explanation.

Step-by-Step Workflow

STEP 0: Initialize Master Keyword List (Multi-Source Projects)

Agent: researcher Goal: Define consistent keyword vocabulary across all sources in project

When to Use:

• ✅ Reading 3+ sources for same research project
• ✅ Building cross-source knowledge base
• ❌ Skip if reading single source

Procedure:

1. List main topics/concepts in your research project
2. Define standard keywords for each:
   • Use domain-standard terms when possible
   • Be specific (#methodology, not #method)
   • Use consistent formatting (#snake-case)
3. Create master keyword list:

# MASTER KEYWORD LIST: [Project Name]

## Core Concepts
- #[concept-1] - Defini
