Paper Reading - Research Paper Summarization

Overview

A structured approach to reading and summarizing scientific research papers. Automatically identifies paper type (empirical/theoretical/survey/systems), selects the appropriate template, screenshots important figures, and embeds them in the summary document.

When to Use

• User provides a paper (PDF path, URL, or pasted content) and asks for summary
• User asks to "read", "summarize", or "analyze" a research paper
• User wants to understand a paper's contribution quickly
• Literature review tasks

Not for: Tutorial papers, textbooks, or non-research documents
