That's an impressive jump in performance by providing the agent with access to relevant literature.
Is there a breakdown of which wins came from hyperparameter values (where BO would likely match this) vs. wins from techniques the agent wouldn’t have tried without the paper?
This is pretty cool. How do you compare to GSD and superpowers?
Trying this out on a valve engineering PDF extraction task — the repo claims 72% improvement on PDF extraction specifically, which is why I'm biting. Installed the MCP and the results were actually contextualized against what I'd already tried in the repo, which surprised me. Handing it to Claude Code now. Quick question: does it pull implementation details from the paper itself, or just the technique? Will report back.
Yes - would be interested in other domains. I'm particularly interested in computational biology. Let me know when that becomes available.
You mention the index covers "applied CS" — where does it draw the line? If I'm implementing a time series forecasting model, does it cover the stats/econometrics literature too, or only CS-venue papers? A lot of the best techniques for engineering problems live in adjacent fields. Same question for computational biology, NLP-for-legal, etc.

Created this website from scratch. It's a website which act as my portfolio as a Software Engineer. :) Would appreciate feedback/thoughts!
