README

Paper Summarizer

Understand an academic or technical paper without losing its important limits and caveats.

Helpful when

  • You need the main findings quickly.
  • You want to judge whether a study applies to your work.
  • The methods or statistics are difficult to interpret.

What to share with Pi

  • The paper, PDF, or link
  • Your background and what you care about
  • Any claims you want checked closely

Try asking

Summarize this paper for an engineering team. Explain the method, strongest findings, limitations, and practical meaning.

What you’ll get

  • A clear summary of the question and findings
  • Important methods and limitations
  • Practical implications and unanswered questions

Keep in mind

A summary is not a replacement for expert review, especially for medical, legal, or safety-critical decisions.

Install

pi install npm:@firstpick/pi-skill-paper-summarizer
