For a long time research has been scattered, lacked powerful tools and had bad user experience. That ends today! ScholarXIV is a nextgen research platform that comes with a set of powerful tools and features to make research a very insightful and an indepth experience. It let's you build your own research library, curate papers and share them. It also let's users like, bookmark and comment on each and every paper. But the most powerful feature is the AI research with sandboxes. This bring a whole new aspect of conducting research. The sandboxes let you generate files, run simulations and so much more. ScholarXIV also has a proactive feature called Pulse. In Pulse your recently liked and bookmarked papers are converted into a quick and crossresearch article to save you time. Checkout ScholarXIV.com for many more epic features like advanced search, paper selection, content analysis and much more.

So I made a Blogging Agent. Built on top of BareBlogs () I created an agent that will research and write really great blog posts about any topic. I created the guidelines in AGENTS.md and wrote a very comprehensive SKILLS.md file to guide it on research, format and more. AI Blog • aiblogpeach.vercel.app Source • github.com/dagmawibabi/AIBlog Every blog post is AI generated and it's actually very comprehensive and I've set the tone to feel more personal and I've given it my previous blog collections as samples and it would try to mirror that tone. Two sites that are important to learn about these things is agents.md and agentskills.io or read this comprehensive blog () written by this agent.
