NanoResearch Planning
Turns a chosen research hypothesis into a structured experiment blueprint with datasets, baselines, metrics, and ablations.

What it does
- Reads the selected hypothesis and cited literature from
papers/ideation_output.json. - Runs a 7-step process: pick publicly available datasets, choose 2–4 baselines, define primary/secondary metrics, design ablation groups per novel component, and estimate compute plus timeline.
- Writes a structured
papers/experiment_blueprint.jsonready for the execution stage. - Requires no external tools — pure LLM reasoning.
Who it's for
- Grad students and researchers formalizing the experiments section of a paper.
- ML/AI practitioners who want complete baseline and ablation coverage.
- Users of the full NanoResearch pipeline (ideation → planning → experiments).
Examples
- Feed a "contrastive learning for document embeddings" hypothesis and get a blueprint with MS MARCO/BEIR datasets and BM25/DPR baselines.
- For a three-module method, generate three leave-one-out ablation groups with expected outcomes.
- Produce a GPU-hour estimate and experiment schedule to attach to a research proposal.

Paste this into Claude to use the skill without installing anything.
Read the instructions in this file and follow them to help me: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpenRaiser/NanoResearch/HEAD/skills/nanoresearch-planning/SKILL.md What I want: (describe your task here)
If Claude can't open the link, open it yourself and paste the contents instead.
↓ If it works for you, download the ZIP below and install it. Then it runs on its own — no pasting each time.
Install in the Claude app (no terminal)
- Download the ZIP with the button below.
- In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on 'Code execution and file creation'. (one time)
- Go to Customize → Skills → + → 'Upload a skill' and upload the ZIP.
Install in Claude Code
Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code
Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart. Copy the skills/nanoresearch-planning folder from the GitHub repo OpenRaiser/NanoResearch into my ~/.claude/skills/nanoresearch-planning/. When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.
Install with a command instead
git clone https://github.com/OpenRaiser/NanoResearch.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r NanoResearch/skills/nanoresearch-planning ~/.claude/skills/⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.
- Open a terminal in your working directory.
- Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/OpenRaiser/NanoResearch.git - Create the skills folder:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills - Copy the skill:
cp -r NanoResearch/skills/nanoresearch-planning ~/.claude/skills/ - Recommended: also install the ideation skill from the same repo so
papers/ideation_output.jsonexists first. - Restart Claude Code and ask: "Use the planning skill to build my experiment blueprint."
