A Structured Research Operating System for managing AI/ML papers, notes, and knowledge

Project description

🧠 AI Research OS

A Structured Research Operating System for Serious AI Researchers

Python Platform Tests LLM License


TL;DR

Feed it a paper (arXiv URL, DOI, or PDF). Get back a P-Note, C-Note, Radar entry, and Timeline entry — all structured, tagged, and cross-linked. Optionally generate AI-assisted drafts.

# One paper
python ai_research_os.py https://arxiv.org/abs/2601.00155 --tags LLM,Agent

# With AI draft (requires API key)
python ai_research_os.py https://arxiv.org/abs/2601.00155 --tags LLM --ai

This is not a PDF manager. It is a Cognitive Upgrade System that enforces structured thinking, explicit reasoning, and long-term research tracking.


What It Does

Input Output
arXiv URL/ID P-Note + C-Note + Radar + Timeline
DOI P-Note + C-Note + Radar + Timeline
Local PDF P-Note + C-Note + Radar + Timeline
Scanned PDF Same (via OCR)
--ai flag + AI-structured draft (待核验)

Installation

Dependencies

pip install requests feedparser pymupdf

OCR (optional, for scanned PDFs)

pip install pytesseract pillow

Windows: Download Tesseract from UB-Mannheim/tesseract — add to PATH and install Chinese (chi_sim).

AI Draft (optional)

Requires an OpenAI-compatible API key. See API_CONFIG.md for full configuration.

# Set environment variables
export OPENAI_API_KEY="***"
export OPENAI_BASE_URL="https://dashscope.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1"

# Or pass directly as arguments (highest priority)
python ai_research_os.py <input> --api-key "sk-..." --base-url "https://..." --model "qwen3.5-plus"

Knowledge Evolution Logic

Paper → P-Note (paper note)

  → M-Note (comparison note, when 3+ papers share same tag)
  → Radar (topic frequency heat score)
  → Timeline (year-based evolution)

Research Philosophy

This system enforces:

  • Structured thinking (P/C/M-Notes)
  • Explicit reasoning (frontmatter fields)
  • Comparison-based insight (M-Notes)
  • Long-term tracking (Radar + Timeline)
  • Decision logging (evolution logs)
  • Cognitive iteration (periodic M-Note revision)

Recommended Workflow

  1. Read 1 paper daily
  2. Assign 1–3 tags
  3. Weekly check Radar
  4. Auto-trigger M-Notes when 3+ papers share a tag
  5. Quarterly review Timeline
  6. Periodically revise M-Notes

Roadmap

  • Citation graph extraction
  • Auto experiment table parsing
  • Embedding-based search
  • Knowledge graph building
  • Trend prediction
  • Research momentum scoring

面向严肃 AI 研究者的结构化研究操作系统


一句话说明

输入一篇论文(arXiv URL、DOI 或本地 PDF),输出 P-Note、C-Note、Radar 条目、Timeline 条目 — 全部结构化、带标签、可交叉引用。可选生成 AI 辅助草稿。

# 处理单篇论文
python ai_research_os.py https://arxiv.org/abs/2601.00155 --tags LLM,Agent

# 开启 AI 草稿(需配置 API key)
python ai_research_os.py https://arxiv.org/abs/2601.00155 --tags LLM --ai

这不是一个 PDF 管理器,而是一套 认知升级系统,强制结构化思维、显式推理和长期研究追踪。
