LLM prompt blocks for per-paper and corpus literature synthesis after a search pipeline. USE WHEN synthesizing arXiv/Crossref results, writing per-paper notes, thematic clusters, gap analysis from a literature corpus, or wiring template_search_project synthesis — even without naming infrastructure.llm templates.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Literature synthesis
Prompt blocks for `infrastructure.llm` or project `synthesis.py` after literature search.
## Natural invoke
- "Synthesize these 12 papers into thematic clusters with citation keys"
- "Per-paper structured notes: contribution, method, evidence, limitation"
- "Gap analysis: what experiments would close open questions?"
## Inputs to confirm
- **Corpus** — list of papers (title, authors, year, abstract, optional fulltext).
- **Goal paragraph** — for gap-analysis variant only.
## Paper block format
Each paper renders as:
```text
### {citation_key} — {title} ({year})
**Authors:** {authors}
**DOI / URL:** {doi or url}
**Abstract:** {abstract}
```
## Workflows
### Per-paper analysis
Structured note: CONTRIBUTION (one sentence), METHOD (2–3 bullets), EVIDENCE (2–3 bullets), LIMITATION (one bullet), TAGS (3–7 lowercase). Cite as `[{citation_key}]`.
### Cross-paper synthesis
Group into 3–7 thematic clusters; summarise dominant approach; agreements/disagreements; 3 open questions. Cite only corpus keys in square brackets.
### Gap analysis
Given GOAL + corpus: per paper COVERS/LACKS sub-claims; propose 3 follow-up experiments. Cite by key.

How to install
mdr add docxology/template/template-literature-synthesis@sha256:e4c106050e37de3cThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
