Paper audits & replication
Command | What it does expert-ai audit <paper> | Compares a paper's claims against its public code; flags mismatches and reproducibility risks. expert-ai replicate <paper> | Plans or executes a full replication workflow. expert-ai review <artifact> | Simulates a tough peer review with objections, severity, and a revision plan. expert-ai compare <topic> | Source-grounded comparison matrix with confidence levels.
Autonomous loops & watches
- autoresearch — try an idea, measure results, keep what works, discard the rest, repeat.
- watch — a recurring research watch on a topic, company, or paper area.
- draft — turn findings into a polished paper-style draft with equations and citations.
- code — full-spectrum software engineering and technical automation.
The 5-agent engine behind the workflows
Agent | Role Researcher | Gathers evidence, reads sources, explores the web and your vault. Reviewer | Checks the work against criteria and catches gaps. Writer | Drafts the deliverable in a polished, structured form. Verifier | Confirms citations and provenance — marks claims verified/unverified/inferred. Architect | Plans the overall approach and keeps the session on track.
Coding agents & harnesses (the 2026 wave)
- One-click launch — a .bat/.command launcher gets you a ready-to-run terminal.
- Real-time transparency — see reasoning steps, approve or reject edits inline.
- Integrated test bot — auto-creates unit tests, runs them sandboxed, reports pass/fail.
- Policy-driven security — per-project rules like "no external SDK calls".
- Persistent knowledge — style guides and library versions stay consistent across sessions.
Why this matters for beginners
Provenance is the superpower. Every output that says "verified" carries a sidecar recording what was actually checked. That is what makes the difference between an AI answer and evidence you can trust.
