  • Updated April 6, 2026
  • Baptistecaille/Research-plugin

Cortical-columns is a research companion that discovers academic papers, performs deep analysis, scans periodically for new work, and runs literature-gap analysis with Obsidian integration. Researchers use it to keep a thesis literature review current and find unexplored gaps.

Key points

  • Paper discovery + deep analysis
  • Periodic literature scanning
  • Gap analysis, Obsidian integration

Theoretical AI Research Workspace

This folder is a research workspace for theoretical AI.

It is where we keep notes, experiments, plugin prototypes, and supporting material related to formal reasoning, algorithmic structure, mathematical analysis, and other theory-focused AI work.

What Lives Here

  • Research plugins and tooling
  • Proof-oriented and math-oriented experiments
  • Literature notes and synthesis documents
  • Working drafts, evidence, and planning artifacts

Current Projects

  • plugins/algo-math-structurer: a Claude Cowork plugin for turning Python algorithms into formal mathematical documents with proofs and LaTeX output
  • plugins/cortical-columns: a Claude Cowork plugin for thesis research on cortical columns and algorithmic representations

Working Style

  • Keep the repository focused on research, not production deployment
  • Prefer clear structure and reproducible notes
  • Use separate folders for distinct research threads
  • Keep plugin-specific documentation inside each project folder

Repository Layout

  • plugins/algo-math-structurer/ for the algorithm formalization plugin
  • plugins/cortical-columns/ for cortical columns research
  • .sisyphus/ for planning, evidence, and internal notes
  • .claude-plugin/ for marketplace configuration
