Could you build this?

Partial The wiki front end, CLI, and agent skill are straightforward to build. The 1M-paper corpus, the curated research-frontier summaries, and the retrieval quality behind the benchmarks are the hard parts.

What it would actually take: The stack would be a paper-ingestion pipeline over arXiv and similar sources, with metadata from Semantic Scholar or OpenAlex, plus embeddings and a search index. The hard part is LLM-driven synthesis into hierarchical subtopic pages with 'rising' and 'open' analyses that stay accurate as the literature grows. Matching the benchmark results needs substantial retrieval evaluation work and domain researchers to design and check the tasks.
