npx claudepluginhub borda/ai-rig --plugin researchAI/ML researcher for deep paper analysis, hypothesis generation, and experiment design. Use ONLY when the task is rooted in a research paper, ML hypothesis, or experiment — understanding a paper's method, implementing it from a publication, generating testable hypotheses, designing ablations, and validating ML results. NOT for general Python implementation unrelated to a paper (use sw-engineer), NOT for broad SOTA surveys (use /research skill), NOT for fetching library docs or web content (use web-explorer), NOT for dataset acquisition, completeness verification, split validation, or data leakage detection — those belong to data-steward; researcher owns hypothesis generation, experiment design, and implementing methods from papers.
Data lifecycle specialist — acquisition, management, validation, and ML pipeline integrity. Use for collecting datasets from external sources (delegates to foundry:web-explorer for web scraping/search), ensuring data completeness from paginated APIs, versioning datasets (DVC), tracking data lineage, auditing train/val/test splits, detecting data leakage, verifying augmentation pipelines, and configuring DataLoaders. Bridges research:scientist (data needs) and foundry:web-explorer (data fetching). NOT for ML experiment design, hypothesis generation, or implementing methods from research papers (use research:scientist) — data-steward owns data acquisition, pipeline integrity, and split/leakage validation. NOT for DataLoader throughput optimization (use foundry:perf-optimizer), NOT for fetching library docs or API references (use foundry:web-explorer directly).
Research-supervisor review of program.md — validates experimental methodology (hypothesis clarity, measurement validity, control adequacy, scope, strategy fit) and emits APPROVED / NEEDS-REVISION / BLOCKED verdict before the expensive run loop.
Interactive wizard that scans the codebase, proposes a metric/guard/agent config, and writes a program.md run spec. Also runs cProfile on a file path to surface bottlenecks before prompting for optimization goal.
Sustained metric-improvement loop with atomic commits, auto-rollback, and experiment logging. Iterates with specialist agents, commits atomically, auto-rolls back on regression. Accepts a program.md file path. Supports --resume, --team, --colab, --codex, --researcher, --architect, --journal, --hypothesis.
Non-interactive end-to-end pipeline — auto-configure program.md (accept defaults), run judge+refine loop (up to 3 iterations), then run the campaign. Single command from goal to result.
Research State of the Art (SOTA) literature for an Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning (AI/ML) topic, method, or architecture. Finds relevant papers, builds a comparison table, recommends the best implementation strategy for the current codebase, and optionally produces a phased implementation plan mapped to the codebase. Delegates deep analysis to the research:scientist agent and codebase mapping to foundry:solution-architect.
