Your project shaped mine — alexandria credits ARS in its README

[kengo006]

Hi — I just published alexandria (https://github.com/kengo006/alexandria), a citation-integrity-first academic writing system for Claude Code + Obsidian, extracted from the setup that carried my own graduate research.

Three of its core disciplines trace directly to academic-research-skills, and the README's Influences section says so: quote anchoring, the blind-review pre-commitment, and the anti-sycophancy rule. They ended up welded into a five-role permission architecture (only the Librarian writes the vault; the Writer can't read source PDFs at all), but the DNA is recognisably yours.

Thank you for building ARS — it changed how my system thinks about verification. If you're ever curious what your ideas look like fused with a governance/anti-drift layer, it's all MIT. No action needed; this is just a thank-you.

Thank you for the kind words and for doing attribution properly in the README.

The influence now runs both ways: after reading alexandria I put three of its mechanisms through ARS's usual adoption gauntlet (dual-track in-repo verification), and all three survived in reshaped form. They are now tracked at #512 (PDF read-integrity preflight), #513 (read_scope on the read ledger), and #514 (tools: allowlists for the three real plugin agents). Each issue's provenance section names alexandria.

Thanks again for closing the loop publicly.
