cli-hub-matrix-knowledge-research

name cli-hub-matrix-knowledge-research description Capability-based multi-tool matrix for research, note-taking, document authoring, and publishing. Agents compose providers (CLI-Anything harnesses, public CLIs, Python libs, native binaries, cloud APIs) per capability. Knowledge / Office / Research Matrix (S2 — v2 capability-based) Scenario S2 . Strongest coverage in the current ecosystem: search, reference management, notes, synthesis, documents, and diagrams all have first-party harnesses; Python/native fallbacks fill the rest. Schema: docs/cli-matrix/matrix_registry.schema.md . Matrix plan: docs/cli-matrix/cli-matrix-plan.md . Install cli-hub matrix install knowledge-research cli-hub matrix info knowledge-research cli-hub matrix preflight knowledge-research --json Provider selection constraints Use preflight as an availability report, not as a provider selector. Treat provider order as documentation order only. Choose from user requirements, output quality bar, offline needs, credential state, install cost, and provider notes. Escalate to paid or metered APIs only when credentials are already present or the user explicitly consents. Offline context? Filter to offline: true providers. Preflight Run cli-hub matrix preflight knowledge-research --json first.

Uses: research.search , research.retrieve , research.reference , knowledge.synthesize , document.author . meeting-to-doc — turn a recorded meeting into a structured document. Uses: text.transcribe (via S1 matrix), knowledge.synthesize , document.author , document.format . blog-post — research → write → publish. Uses: research.search , research.retrieve , knowledge.synthesize , document.author , publish.web . paper-draft — research + citations + LaTeX. Uses: research.reference , knowledge.synthesize , document.author , publish.latex . competitive-brief — fetch competitor pages, extract positioning, produce a briefing deck. Uses: research.retrieve , knowledge.synthesize , document.author (PPTX). pdf-book-digest — ingest a PDF book, OCR if needed, produce chapter summaries + quote file. Uses: document.pdf , knowledge.synthesize , knowledge.note . Known gaps Notion — Notion API exists as an escalation, but there is no harness for local-first Notion workflows. Recurs in S11 (team comms). Google Docs / Microsoft 365 live editing — API path only. LaTeX harness — latexmk + Tectonic cover the native path, but no agent-native wrapper yet. Translation — no first-party CLI; Python fallback and APIs only. Agent guidance
