Paper2code: Open-source Agent skill turns arXiv URLs into working code
tom_doerr · x · 2026-08-11
paper2code is an open-source AI Agent skill that transforms arXiv paper URLs into citation-anchored, working code implementations.
- Workflow: Simply input an arXiv link to automatically generate a complete project structure including README, dependencies, and src source code.
- Citation Anchoring: Generated modules (like model.py and train.py) include comments linking directly to specific paper sections (e.g., §3.2 cited) for easy cross-referencing.
- Traction: The project has already garnered 1.5k stars on GitHub.
