Activation
This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.
Download a small corpus of open-access arXiv survey/review PDFs about agentic systems and extract text for style learning. **Trigger**: agent survey corpus, ref corpus, download surveys, 学习综述写法, 下载 survey. **Use when**: you want to study how real agent surveys structure sections (6–8 H2), size subsections, and write evidence-backed comparisons. **Skip if**: you cannot download PDFs (no network) or you don't want local PDF files. **Network**: required. **Guardrail**: only download arXiv PDFs; store under `ref/` and keep large files out of git.Key capabilities
- →Download open-access arXiv survey PDFs related to agentic systems
- →Extract text from downloaded PDFs
- →Generate a `STYLE_REPORT.md` summary
- →Support learning from real agent surveys for documentation structure
- →Allow specification of maximum pages to extract from PDFs
How it works
The skill reads arXiv IDs from a text file, then downloads the corresponding PDFs and extracts text from a specified number of pages.
Inputs & outputs
When to use agent-survey-corpus
- →Studying survey structure
- →Improving documentation writing style
- →Researching academic writing patterns
- →Building a reference library
About this skill
Agent Survey Corpus (arXiv PDFs → text extracts)
Goal: create a small, local reference library so you can learn from real agent surveys when refining:
- C2 outline structure (paper-like sectioning)
- C4 tables/claims organization
- C5 writing style and density
This is intentionally not part of the pipeline; it is an optional, repo-level toolkit.
Inputs
ref/agent-surveys/arxiv_ids.txt
Outputs
ref/agent-surveys/pdfs/ref/agent-surveys/text/ref/agent-surveys/STYLE_REPORT.md(tracked; auto-generated summary)
Workflow
- Edit
ref/agent-surveys/arxiv_ids.txt(one arXiv id per line). - Run the downloader to fetch PDFs and extract the first N pages to text.
- Skim the extracted text under
ref/agent-surveys/text/:- look at section counts (H2), subsection granularity (H3), and how they transition between chapters.
- identify repeated rhetorical patterns you want the pipeline writer to imitate.
Script
Quick Start
uv run python .codex/skills/agent-survey-corpus/scripts/run.py --helpuv run python .codex/skills/agent-survey-corpus/scripts/run.py --workspace . --max-pages 20
All Options
--workspace <dir>(use.to write into repo root)--inputs <semicolon-separated>(default:ref/agent-surveys/arxiv_ids.txt)--max-pages <N>(default: 20)--sleep <seconds>(default: 1.0)--overwrite(re-download + re-extract)
Examples
- Download/extract into repo root
ref/:uv run python .codex/skills/agent-survey-corpus/scripts/run.py --workspace . --max-pages 20
- Download/extract into a specific folder (treated as workspace root):
uv run python .codex/skills/agent-survey-corpus/scripts/run.py --workspace /tmp/surveys --max-pages 30
Troubleshooting
- Download fails / timeout: rerun with a larger
--sleep, or try fewer ids. - Text extract is empty: the PDF may be scanned; try another survey or increase
--max-pages. - Files showing up in git status: PDFs/text are ignored via
.gitignore(ref/**/pdfs/,ref/**/text/).
When not to use it
- →When network access is unavailable to download PDFs
- →When local PDF files are not desired
Limitations
- →Only downloads arXiv PDFs
- →Requires network access
- →Text extraction may be empty if the PDF is scanned
How it compares
This skill automates the process of collecting and preparing academic survey data for analysis, unlike manual downloading and text extraction.
