SOTA Literature Review

Build literature review artifacts that are reproducible, inspectable, and easy to continue later.

Search Strategy

Create or update

sota/search-strategy.md

with:

research question
inclusion and exclusion criteria
databases queried
query strings
date range
filters
screening decisions
known blind spots

Prefer API-backed sources: arXiv, Semantic Scholar, OpenAlex, Crossref, PubMed, DBLP metadata, and Zotero. Use Google Scholar as a discovery fallback, not the primary evidence layer.

Literature Matrix

Maintain

sota/literature-matrix.csv

with at least:

source_id
title
authors
year
venue
method
dataset/sample
task/problem
key claim
metric/result
limitations
relevance
citation_count_or_signal
identifiers

Synthesis

Write synthesis in

sota/synthesis.md

, not only in chat. Separate:

established findings
contested claims
methodological families
dataset or benchmark differences
missing baselines
open gaps
implications for this project

Quality Rules

No paper-by-paper laundry list unless the user explicitly asks for annotated bibliography.
Claims need inline source IDs or wiki links.
SOTA claims need date, benchmark, metric, and scope.
Contradictions go to
```
wiki/contradictions.md
```
.
Reusable findings should be linked from
```
wiki/index.md
```
.
