This repository contains draft research papers shared prior to formal submission to arXiv.
These are early, in-progress versions of my research papers. I'm sharing them openly for:
- Rapid idea dissemination
- Early feedback from colleagues
- Collaboration opportunities
- Transparency in my research process
Each paper is organized in its own folder: YYYYMMDD_LastName_FI_ShortTitle/
This repository also includes a shareable Codex skill used in the research workflow:
skills/self-drive-research-loop/: an auditable iterative research-loop skill with round ledgers, failed-route guardrails, and handoff prompts.
To install it locally:
./install_self_drive_skill.shThe workflow review and install note is in skills/self-drive-research-loop/docs/self_drive_skill_review.md.
Before arXiv: Please treat these as personal communication or cite as:

After arXiv: Always cite the arXiv version instead (links added to /submitted/ folder).
