Academic Research

Adversarial QA Loop

Use a Critic + Fixer pattern where one agent finds issues (read-only) and another fixes them, with re-audits until quality passes. Prevents Claude from approving its own work.

Deep Research Coordinator

Orchestrate complex multi-source research projects — from question decomposition to source prioritization to final synthesis and recommendations.

Iterative Build & Fix Loop

Run builds in a loop that automatically detects errors, fixes them, and re-runs until the build succeeds. Works with any build system: npm, cargo, go, make, gradle, and more.

Data Analysis Pipeline

End-to-end data analysis workflow from exploration to publication-ready output. Explore, regress, visualize, and produce polished results.

Academic Research

Devil's Advocate Review

Challenge your designs and decisions with 5-7 targeted critical questions. Catches unstated assumptions, alternative approaches, and potential issues before you commit.

5 minutes

Git Commit Workflow

Structured approach to git commits with quality checks, meaningful messages, and proper staging. Never commit broken code.

Interactive Research Interview

Use Claude as an interviewer to formalize vague ideas into concrete specifications. Transform 'I have this intuition...' into a clear research plan.

5 minutes

Academic Research

Knowledge Base Builder

Build a structured knowledge base for your domain with notation registries, application databases, design principles, and anti-patterns.

Literature Review Synthesis

Systematically search, analyze, and synthesize research literature. Extract key findings, identify gaps, and produce structured literature reviews.

10 minutes
Intermediate
Academic Research

Proofread Review Agent

Deploy a specialized proofreading agent that focuses solely on grammar, spelling, punctuation, and clarity. Catches errors that general reviews miss by having laser focus on language.

5 minutes

Academic Research

Manuscript Referee Review

Get a thorough pre-submission review with referee-style objections. Identify weaknesses before reviewers do, and strengthen your paper proactively.

10 minutes
Intermediate
Academic Research

Multi-Agent Parallel Review

Run multiple specialized review agents in parallel — proofreader, code reviewer, security auditor, etc. Each agent focuses on one dimension with full attention.

15 minutes

Academic Research

Orchestrator Contractor Mode

Let Claude autonomously coordinate multi-step tasks like a contractor — planning, implementing, reviewing, fixing, and verifying without constant supervision.

10 minutes
Intermediate
Academic Research

Parallel Task Agents

Spawn multiple Claude agents simultaneously to handle independent subtasks. Review 3 papers at once, analyze multiple files in parallel, or run concurrent simulations.

5 minutes

Academic Research

Plan-First Workflow

Get Claude to plan before executing complex tasks. Prevents wasted effort by getting user approval on approach before writing code or making changes.

5 minutes
Beginner
Academic Research

Quality Gates System

Implement a scoring system (0-100) that blocks commits below threshold. 80+ to commit, 90+ for PR, 95+ for excellence. Prevents shipping subpar work.

5 minutes

Academic Research

Replication-First Coding

When working with existing code or papers, match the original exactly before extending. Verify against gold standard numbers to catch silent bugs.

10 minutes
Intermediate
Academic Research

Research Exploration Sandbox

Create a structured explorations/ folder for experimental work. Fast-track experiments without full rigor, then graduate successful ones to production code.

5 minutes
Beginner
Academic Research

Research Ideation Generator

Generate research questions, hypotheses, and empirical strategies. Brainstorm ideas systematically with structured prompts that push beyond obvious approaches.

5 minutes
Beginner
Academic Research

Self-Improvement Memory Loop

Create a persistent MEMORY.md that captures corrections and learnings with [LEARN] tags. Claude checks memory before making similar mistakes across sessions.

5 minutes
Beginner
Academic Research

Session Logging Protocol

Automatically log design decisions, progress, and context at key moments. Create a searchable history of why things were done, not just what changed.
