Daily Paper Reading

Daily Paper Reading

Overview

Use this skill to run Wyatt's local daily paper reading cockpit. The goal is Chinese-first, core-only triage: collect daily feeds, select papers against Wyatt's research profile, sync selected items to Zotero when possible, and generate an Obsidian Markdown brief with on-demand Zotero note links.

Local Paths

When Starting a Daily Run

1. Use Asia/Shanghai dates.
2. By default, run /Volumes/T7/paper-reading-workflow/bin/run_daily_paper_mimo.sh --date YYYY-MM-DD. MiMo owns feed triage, profile-based selection, and the internal Chinese draft.
3. The runner starts Paper Easy through /Volumes/T7/paper-reading-workflow/bin/start_paper_easy.sh if http://127.0.0.1:5174/api/health is not healthy.
4. Prefer Paper Easy HTTP APIs as the feed source: /api/papers, /api/huggingface-papers, and /api/author-papers. MCP remains available at /mcp but should not receive secret values in prompts.
5. Keep raw Paper Easy paper objects intact when available. Do not rewrite title, summary, or translations unnecessarily.
6. Do not synthesize https://huggingface.co/papers/<arxiv_id> for ordinary arXiv papers. Include a Hugging Face Daily Paper link only when the paper came from /api/huggingface-papers or the URL was explicitly present and verified as a real HF Daily Paper page.
7. Record codeUrl, githubUrl, or projectUrl only when the paper metadata/arXiv/HF page explicitly exposes a real code or project link. Do not infer a repository from the paper title.
8. Before selection, build a dedupe set from prior DailyPapers notes and the adopted-paper ledger below. Do not re-adopt a paper that already appeared in a previous note's selected/interesting section.
9. Select only papers matching config/research_profile.yaml. Do not fill quotas with weak matches.
10. The official Markdown must be generated by automation/outputs/04_daily_paper_brief.py or the local wrapper. MiMo may write work/mimo/YYYY-MM-DD/daily_paper_brief_YYYY-MM-DD_mimo_draft.md, but it must not write into the user-facing DailyPapers directory and must not directly write the official daily_paper_brief_YYYY-MM-DD.md.
11. Keep daily_paper_brief_YYYY-MM-DD.md as the canonical wrapper artifact. It must contain Zotero zotero://select links and daily-paper-note:// links whenever selected papers were synced.
12. After the canonical brief validates, create or refresh a sibling semantic Obsidian entry file for reading. Use YYYY-MM-DD_<主题1>-<主题2>-<主题3>.md, copy the canonical brief, and change only the H1 to # YYYY-MM-DD｜主题1、主题2与主题3. Keep the canonical file; do not rename it away. Prefer 2-4 compact Chinese themes from the selected papers, e.g. 2026-06-20_排序驱动检索-缓存证据排序-持久状态核.md.
13. Final user-facing output should point to the semantic Obsidian entry file first, while mentioning the canonical daily_paper_brief_YYYY-MM-DD.md as the reproducible wrapper artifact.

Selection Standard

Rank papers by:

• fit to Wyatt's current research and internship direction
• novelty over prior known papers
• actionable implementation or experiment value
• relevance to multimodal retrieval, reranker, agent memory, coding agents, VLM/MLLM, world models, embodied AI, or spatial memory

Each selected entry should include a Chinese reason in relevance. Prefer 3-8 high-signal papers over a long generic list.

Adopted Paper Deduplication

Before choosing papers for a new daily note, scan existing notes under /Volumes/T7/obsidian/jiangyu/多模态论文/DailyPapers and exclude already adopted papers.

Rules:

• Treat a paper as adopted only when it appears under the note's selected/interesting section (## 感兴趣论文, ## 必读论文, or equivalent), before source-only sections such as ## Hugging Face Daily Papers or appendices.
• Match duplicates by arXiv ID first, then by normalized English title.
• Source-only listings do not count as adoption. A paper may be selected later if it only appeared in a Hugging Face/source appendix and was not selected.
• If an important candidate was already adopted, do not select it again. Mention it only as 已在 YYYY-MM-DD 采用 if context is useful.
• After generating the note, add the day's selected paper IDs/titles to this ledger when the user asks to persist the dedupe state in the skill.

Known adopted papers:

Commands

Smoke-test local scripts:

cd /Volumes/T7/paper-reading-workflow/upstream
python3 -m py_compile automation/outputs/*.py
bash -n scripts/*.sh

Start or restart Paper Easy:

/Volumes/T7/paper-reading-workflow/bin/start_paper_easy.sh --restart

Default daily run through MiMo:

/Volumes/T7/paper-reading-workflow/bin/run_daily_paper_mimo.sh --date YYYY-MM-DD

Dry-run the MiMo entrypoint:

/Volumes/T7/paper-reading-workflow/bin/run_daily_paper_mimo.sh --date YYYY-MM-DD --dry-run

Generate a brief from an existing raw JSON:

/Volumes/T7/paper-reading-workflow/bin/run_daily_paper_pipeline.sh YYYY-MM-DD /path/to/daily_paper_brief_raw_YYYY-MM-DD.json

The wrapper sets:

OBSIDIAN_VAULT=/Volumes/T7/obsidian/jiangyu
OBSIDIAN_DAILY_PAPERS_DIR=多模态论文/DailyPapers

Output Shape

The Obsidian Markdown should lead with:

• 今日结论: 3-6 bullets in Chinese
• 必读论文: selected papers grouped by topic
• 观察但不读: notable but lower-priority papers
• Hugging Face Daily Papers: full or summarized HF source section
• Zotero / PDF / arXiv links
• A final appendix named 附录：深读入口、代码状态与空主题, containing on-demand daily-paper-note:// links, code/project link status, and empty-topic notices. Do not place long LM for Zotero action lists inside each paper entry.

Semantic Filename Rule

The wrapper writes a stable canonical file named daily_paper_brief_YYYY-MM-DD.md. That is not the final Obsidian reading handle. After validation, create a semantic sibling note in the same DailyPapers directory:

YYYY-MM-DD_<主题1>-<主题2>-<主题3>.md

Rules:

• Derive themes from the actual selected papers, not generic topic labels.
• Keep the semantic filename short, Chinese-first, and scan-friendly.
• Change only the first Markdown heading in the semantic copy; the rest should match the canonical brief so Zotero and daily-paper-note:// links stay identical.
• Verify the semantic file exists, its H1 is semantic, and diff against the canonical file shows only the first heading changed.
• If the selected-paper set changes, regenerate both the canonical file through the wrapper and the semantic sibling file.

Zotero Boundaries

• Do not modify Zotero SQLite directly.
• Use Zotero local API, Connector, Better BibTeX, and llm-for-zotero runtime scripts only.
• If Zotero is closed or the local API fails, still generate the Obsidian brief without Zotero links, then report the missing Zotero step.
