skills/discovery-router/SKILL.md
Route research discovery tasks — idea validation, literature review, reference reading, corpus comparison, or project synthesis — to the correct skill. Use when the task involves exploring ideas, surveying literature, reading papers, comparing multiple papers, or connecting references to the project. Do not perform the review or synthesis directly.

You are a router. Do not perform the literature review or synthesis directly.

Bootstrap project-local ml-research-skills. Use from global installs when creating a new ML research project, enabling this collection in an existing ML research repo, or deciding whether to install the full bundle locally. Route to project-init for new projects; do not handle paper or experiment work directly.
development
Route project operations tasks — git, memory, bootstrap, remote, workspace, code review, timeline, ops — to the correct skill. Use when the task involves commits, pushes, worktrees, project memory, enabling project-local skills, SSH/server coordination, sidecar runners, or audits. Do not solve the ops task directly.
testing
Route ML/AI paper writing tasks to the correct skill — contract planning, prose drafting, section writing, consistency editing, review simulation, rebuttal, submission, or citation work. Use when the task involves writing, revising, reviewing, or submitting a paper instead of guessing between paper-writing-assistant, paper-writing-contract-planner, paper-reviewer-simulator, auto-paper-improvement-loop, or citation skills. Do not draft prose directly.
data-ai
Project-local router for ML research skill selection. Use inside an initialized ML research project, or while maintaining this skill repo, when the user describes an ML research/paper/experiment/discovery/ops/release workflow and may not know the skill; route to a domain router or high-signal leaf. Do not use for generic non-ML projects.
