Paper Audit

Claims in the paper must match code in the repository.

This skill audits research papers against their publicly available codebases to detect mismatches, missing implementations, and reproducibility issues. Inspired by Feynman's /audit workflow.

"Trust but verify." — Russian proverb

1. When to Audit

Audit when:

• Reviewing a paper with an accompanying GitHub repository
• Planning to build on someone's method (verify it works first)
• Reviewing for a conference/journal (check reproducibility)
• Teaching (show students what to look for)
