Evaluates and prioritizes seed papers for effective snowball surveys

  • Identifies optimal starting points for citation-based literature surveys
  • Leverages citation data and network analysis tools
  • Ranks seeds by citation count, recency, and network centrality
  • Returns prioritized list of validated seed papers

# Seed Selection

Validate and prioritize starting papers for snowball surveys.

## Execution

Subagent — spawned via subagent-spawning/spawn-agent skill.

## Why Subagent

Seed evaluation requires analyzing citation networks and making strategic judgments about which papers will yield the richest traces. Dedicated context for this analytical work.
