Literature Search

Academic literature only. You judge relevance — the scripts only gather candidates. Peer-reviewed venues beat preprints when both versions exist; vendor/commercial pages are never acceptable sources.

Modes

Keyword search (topic or full proposal as context):

python3 scripts/search.py "distributed consensus energy efficiency" --limit 10

Snowballing (expand from the proposal's existing references — the systematic way to deepen a literature base; prefer it over keywords once seeds exist):

python3 scripts/snowball.py 10.1145/3292500.3330919 10.1109/EX.2024.1 --direction both

Both emit CSL-YAML candidates on stdout; degradation notes (failed sources, missing keys) arrive on stderr — always relay them to the user in one line.
