Skill: full-text literature synthesis

[Case 2]

• Initial Environment: A bounded recent-paper corpus in neuroscience. The relevant evidence compares laminar patterns between two neuron groups and must be extracted from the paper content.
• Real Question: How diffuse are the laminar patterns of the axonal terminations of lower Layer 5/Layer 6 intratelencephalic neurons compared to Layer 2-4 intratelencephalic neurons in mouse cortex?
• Real Answer: More diffuse
• Why this demonstrates the capability: This case tests whether the agent can retrieve specialized literature and read enough of the paper to answer a fine-grained comparative question. The answer is compact, but the supporting evidence is not a generic factoid. The capability is therefore full-text scientific synthesis rather than keyword lookup.

[Case 3]

• Initial Environment: A bounded recent-paper corpus in immunology or molecular biology. The question asks which listed glycoRNA does not display a specified increase under stimulation conditions.
• Real Question: Which of these glycoRNAs does NOT show an increase in M0 macrophages upon stimulation with LPS: U1, U35a, Y5 or U8?
• Real Answer: U8
• Why this demonstrates the capability: The agent must retrieve the correct paper, inspect the relevant result, and resist plausible distractor options. The question is closed-form, but the underlying skill is still full-text evidence discovery and careful answer selection. This makes it a strong calibration case for literature-grounded RAG.

Pipeline Execution Instructions

To synthesize data for this capability, you must strictly follow a 3-phase pipeline. Do not hallucinate steps. Read the corresponding reference file for each phase sequentially:

1. Phase 1: Environment Exploration Read the exploration guidelines to discover raw knowledge seeds: references/EXPLORATION.md

2. Phase 2: Trajectory Selection Once Phase 1 is complete, read the selection criteria to evaluate the trajectory: references/SELECTION.md

3. Phase 3: Data Synthesis Once a trajectory passes Phase 2, read the synthesis instructions to generate the final data: references/SYNTHESIS.md
