Traction scoreGitHub stars can be faked, so popularity alone can be misleading. Traction Score looks for broader signs of recent attention, adoption, and active maintenance.
This collection of tools streamlines the transition from initial research concepts to final publication. It provides a structured path for distilling corpora into knowledge graphs, grounding stories in research, and generating precise citations without fabrication.
The suite specifically addresses the technical hurdles of academic formatting by automating the creation of native SVG figures and LaTeX documents, ensuring that data-driven results are rendered accurately from raw evidence.
Compatible AgentsThe repository documents support for these agents. The skills may also work with other agents that can load SKILL.md files, but they may need some setup or small changes.

An existing spark-to-paper-skills repository checkout
Run from: The parent directory containing spark-to-paper-skills/.
From a terminal in the parent directory containing the existing `spark-to-paper-skills` checkout, copy every `ts-*` skill into Claude Code's standalone skills directory.
Use ts-idea2story to turn the following raw research idea into a grounded eight-field research story. Produce story.json and story_proposal.md, keep inferred assumptions separate from what I stated, and use the default balanced retrieval focus. Raw idea: <paste the research idea here>.
A research proposal replacing `<paste the proposal here>`
A working directory where blueprint.json and the selected template files may be placed
Use ts-paper-plan to turn the following research proposal into blueprint.json in one reasoning pass. Use the default ts_iieta template, remain in proposal mode, design the experiments with placeholder results only, and do not fabricate measured numbers. Proposal: <paste the proposal here>.
A complete paper draft replacing `<paste or provide the complete paper draft here>`
Whether the draft is in proposal or data-aware mode
Use ts-paper-review to critique the complete paper draft I provide. Run the default three-lens hardening pass and return a prioritized verified issue list in which every issue has an exact evidence quote, severity, and close criterion. Do not edit the draft yet. Draft: <paste or provide the complete paper draft here>.
