Privacy, access & setup details
Saved questions stay in this browser. AI assistance sends only your topic, refinement request and selected excerpts to your chosen provider. Google's free-tier content may be used to improve Google's products. AI does not establish novelty. Do not submit sensitive research.
Invited accounts only: a GitHub account alone does not grant access. The research page is public; AI and paper search require operator approval. Sign-in lasts up to one hour in this tab; refreshing requires sign-in again. Only your explicitly submitted topic and excerpts leave this browser, not notebook notes. Usage limits are shared across providers. Provider billing and data-use terms still apply.
How to use the private lab
On the computer with this repository, run
python scripts/serve_question_lab.py
from the project folder. Then open the private lab link above. Keep API keys in the ignored
.env.local
file, never in this page.
The public site and private lab have separate browser storage. Export your lab backup and notebook backup before switching if you want to bring saved work with you. Nothing transfers automatically.
GitHub Pages does not host the AI service. Public AI access needs a separately deployed, authenticated backend. Groq is a provider backup, not a backup server.
What would you like to investigate?
Your interest sets the scope. A lens does not add extra topics. Name PQC or quantum explicitly if you want it included.
Find a useful starting point
Searching sends your research interest to Crossref and arXiv. No AI calls or private notes are used. Only abstracts you select will be sent to the AI provider after consent.
How this search was matched
Strong matches cover the recognized topic facets and short-topic qualifiers in titles or abstracts. Background reading only covers part of the topic. These are metadata rules—not an AI appraisal, quality rating, or proof of novelty. Up to 12 strong and 3 background matches are shown.
Optional: also include saved readings
Only titles, URLs and saved excerpts are sent—not your private notebook notes. No selected sources means general AI brainstorming.

Gemini unavailable? Use the backup
Groq is an independent provider configured by the server operator. Account limits and billing terms apply. Both providers share the server's daily cap; a backup generation uses two more call slots. A connected lab server is required for either provider to work.
Recent generation attempts
Last five attempts in this tab. A backup result does not erase earlier failures. No topics, excerpts, notes, or keys are stored here. Clears on refresh or sign-out.
Research notebook
Your literature, connected to your questions. Choose a paper, read critically, and keep what matters. Notes stay in this browser; export a backup before clearing site data.
Citation exports use retrieved repository metadata where available; missing fields stay blank. Review source versions before citing. Import detects RIS references or Scout JSON backups automatically. Existing notes are preserved. No device sync.
RIS references detected
Bring selected references from ProQuest, TexShare, or a citation manager into your notebook. Preview first, then choose what to save. The file stays in this browser; nothing is uploaded, published, or sent to AI.
Up to 500 records / 5 MB. Imported metadata is unverified. Existing readings and notes are never overwritten.
Choose references to keep
Review notebook import
Existing sources and notes win on conflicts; nothing is overwritten. Keep the original backup to retain any skipped entries. Download a backup of this browser before importing.
Compare saved papers
Select 2–4 readings with abstracts or source excerpts. AI selects numbered sentences for proposed categories; original wording is inserted automatically. AI connections stay separate. This does not read full papers or establish a research gap.

How selection, grouping and research links work
Research relevance orders recorded topics: PQC, quantum, cybersecurity, AI, then cloud; collector score breaks ties. It is not a quality, novelty or legal assessment. All records remain available under All topics. Search and stage filters apply before grouping; a group shows the highest-ranked matching record, not every family member.
Family keys and member lists are collector-reported, may be incomplete, and do not establish legal family equivalence. Similar-reading links use shared technical phrases in titles or excerpts; they are not patent citations, proof of prior art, or verification of a claim.
Case stage and source-reported legal status are separate from publication identifiers. Zero recorded citations does not establish that a patent has no citations. Verify dates, claims, continuity and current status at the source. Records do not establish validity, commercial readiness, infringement or freedom to operate.

READING THE DASHBOARD
What the labels mean
Rules are deterministic and configurable
Rising
Evidence in the latest seven days increased by at least 50% versus the preceding seven days.
Stable
Recent evidence changed, but not enough to meet the rising or declining threshold.
Declining
Recent evidence decreased by at least one-third versus the preceding seven days.
Critical importance
The theme contains evidence scoring 100 or higher.
High importance
The theme contains evidence scoring 50–99. Medium is below 50.
Actionable
A high- or critical-importance theme is rising and merits near-term review.
Watching
The signal remains relevant but does not meet the actionable or stale rule.
Stale
No supporting evidence has appeared for more than 14 days.
Confidence
High means at least five items from three sources; medium means at least two; low means one.
Source health
Healthy has no warning days. Degraded retains at least 80% reliability; failing falls below 80%.
Readiness stage
The highest stage supported by public PQC evidence. It is not an audit of internal systems.
Historical evidence
Official-source evidence imported outside the daily window; it cannot create retroactive alerts.
HISTORICAL ACTIVITY
Evidence over time
Teal bars: recorded evidence. A dash: missing day, not zero. Counts describe collected coverage, not research quality or field-wide progress. Weekly comparisons end on the latest recorded date, regardless of the chart range.

Data trust and quarantine
Questionable evidence remains reviewable but cannot influence claims, relationships, scoring, or forecasts until it passes the gate.

Source health
Reliability measures collection attempts, not scientific credibility. Stale means no recent dated item was observed—not that a source is broken. Reference sources contain long-lived guidance. Standby collectors run only when their primary feed is empty. Unknown dates remain unknown; future dates do not count as fresh evidence.
