Scientific datasets are commonly organized as hierarchical repositories containing heterogeneous and interdependent files, making their inspection, integration, and analysis labor-intensive and reliant on domain expertise. Although large language model (LLM) agents have advanced substantially in planning, reasoning, and tool use, existing research has largely overlooked their ability to interact with real scientific data assets through executable environments.

Autonomous scientific research agents are increasingly applied to end-to-end scientific workflows, including literature review, data analysis, experimentation, and report generation. However, open-end...
The paper introduces the Scientific Data Skill (SciDSK), an agent‑ready representation that packages dataset‑specific knowledge and operational guidance as a reusable skill. SciDSK integrates dataset descriptions, scientific context, file organization, usage procedures, quality checks, and provenance information while keeping the data in its original repository. The authors define a structured specification, build a construction pipeline, and launch the Scientific Data Skill Bank to publish SciDSK resources across six scientific disciplines, demonstrating improved agent‑driven dataset discovery and interpretation through evaluation benchmarks.

arXiv:2607. 16038v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Scientific work increasingly spans heterogeneous artifacts -- papers, code, datasets, scientific file formats, model outputs, figures, manuscripts, and team decisions -- yet general-purpose AI assistants rarely preserve these objects as a coherent, auditable research state.
