Dr. Claw's research pipeline produces structured artifacts across five stages. Each stage writes to a dedicated directory created when the project is initialized.
| Artifact | Location | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 📚 | Survey reports | Survey/reports/ |
Literature review summaries with citations, synthesized from arXiv, Semantic Scholar, and web sources |
| 📄 | Reference papers | Survey/references/ |
Downloaded PDFs and structured notes (abstract, methodology, evaluation, knowledge graph entries) |
| 💡 | Research ideas | Ideation/ideas/ |
Structured brainstorming outputs using creative frameworks (SCAMPER, SWOT, Mind Mapping) with multi-persona evaluation scores |
| 📖 | Ideation references | Ideation/references/ |
Supporting materials and prior work collected during idea generation |
| 🔬 | Experiment code | Experiment/core_code/ |
Implementation code produced by the plan → implement → judge loop |
| 📦 | Datasets | Experiment/datasets/ |
Downloaded or generated datasets used in experiments |
| 🧪 | Code references | Experiment/code_references/ |
Cloned GitHub repos and code survey outputs (architecture maps, dependency graphs) |
| 📊 | Analysis results | Experiment/analysis/ |
Statistical analysis, tables, charts, and paper-ready figures from experiment runs |
| 📝 | Paper draft | Publication/paper/ |
Academic manuscript in IEEE/ACM format with proper citations, structure, and LaTeX math |
| 🖼️ | Generated figures | Publication/paper/ |
AI-generated figures via Gemini image models (Nano Banana Pro) |

Academic presentation slides with narration scripts |
| 🔊 | Audio narration | Promotion/audio/ |
TTS-generated audio for presentation delivery |
| 🎬 | Demo video | Promotion/video/ |
Combined slides + audio demo video |
| 🌐 | Project homepage | Promotion/homepage/ |
Generated project landing page for dissemination |
When a project is created, Dr. Claw initializes the following workspace:
your-project/
├── instance.json # Project config with absolute paths
├── Survey/
│ ├── references/ # Downloaded papers and structured notes
│ └── reports/ # Literature review summaries
├── Ideation/
│ ├── ideas/ # Generated and evaluated research ideas
│ └── references/ # Supporting materials for ideation
├── Experiment/
│ ├── code_references/ # Cloned repos and code survey outputs

│ └── analysis/ # Results, statistics, and figures
├── Publication/

└── Promotion/
├── homepage/ # Project landing page

└── video/ # Demo video
Survey → Ideation → Experiment → Publication → Promotion
Each stage is powered by one or more research skills. The agent reads and follows the corresponding SKILL.md to produce the artifacts above. Skills can be run independently (e.g., only paper writing) or as a full end-to-end pipeline.
| Stage | Skills Used | Key Outputs |
|---|---|---|
| Survey | inno-prepare-resources, inno-code-survey, inno-deep-research, paper-analyzer, paper-finder |
Literature reports, reference notes, code survey maps |
| Ideation | inno-idea-generation, inno-idea-eval |
Ranked research ideas with multi-dimension scores |
| Experiment | inno-experiment-dev, inno-experiment-analysis |
Runnable code, results tables, statistical analysis |
| Publication | inno-paper-writing, inno-figure-gen, inno-paper-reviewer, inno-humanizer, inno-reference-audit, inno-rclone-to-overleaf |
Manuscript, figures, review feedback, Overleaf sync |
| Promotion | making-academic-presentations |
Slides, narration audio, demo video, homepage |
