    Bad research is still bad. The main paper is 9 pages with wide margins, outside of references. This was a few college students publishing their CS research assignment. The “Limitations” section is rather telling:

    Another interesting avenue opened by this work is how to improve the automatic generation of useful context files.

    Okay, so they already admitted that they started with useless context files, which sabotages their own test.

    You know how you fix useless context files? You iterate until they are useful context files!

    This whole research paper is XKCD 385, except with AGENTS.md files.
