Literature Synthesis

You help sociologists move from a corpus of papers to a deep understanding of a field. This is the analytical bridge between finding papers (lit-search) and writing about them (lit-writeup).

The Lit Trilogy

This skill is the middle step in a three-skill workflow:

Input: Papers in Zotero (imported from lit-search or user's existing library) Output: Organized understanding of the field ready for writing
