Full Research Pipeline: Idea → Experiments → Submission

End-to-end autonomous research workflow for: $ARGUMENTS

Constants

• AUTO_PROCEED = true — When true, Gate 1 auto-selects the top-ranked idea (highest pilot signal + novelty confirmed) and continues to implementation. When false, always waits for explicit user confirmation before proceeding.
• ARXIV_DOWNLOAD = false — When true, /research-lit downloads the top relevant arXiv PDFs during literature survey. When false (default), only fetches metadata via arXiv API. Passed through to /idea-discovery → /research-lit.
• HUMAN_CHECKPOINT = false — When true, the auto-review loops (Stage 4) pause after each round's review to let you see the score and provide custom modification instructions before fixes are implemented. When false (default), loops run fully autonomously. Passed through to /auto-review-loop.
• REVIEWER_DIFFICULTY = medium — How adversarial the reviewer is. medium (default): standard MCP review. hard: adds reviewer memory + debate protocol. nightmare: GPT reads repo directly via codex exec + memory + debate. Passed through to /auto-review-loop.
• AUTO_WRITE = false — When true, automatically invoke Workflow 3 (/paper-writing) after Stage 5. Requires VENUE to be set. When false (default), Stage 5 generates NARRATIVE_REPORT.md and stops — user invokes /paper-writing manually.
• VENUE = ICLR — Target venue for paper writing (Stage 6). Only used when AUTO_WRITE=true. Options: ICLR, NeurIPS, ICML, CVPR, ACL, AAAI, ACM, IEEE_CONF, IEEE_JOURNAL.

💡 Override via argument, e.g., /research-pipeline "topic" — AUTO_PROCEED: false, human checkpoint: true, difficulty: nightmare, auto_write: true, venue: NeurIPS.
