The Problem

Researchers need a single, curated location for papers, figures, and references on latent reasoning. Existing surveys are scattered across personal drives and pre‑print servers, making it hard to keep a consistent bibliography and visual assets.

What This Does

LatentCoT-Horizon is a documentation‑only repository. The top‑level README.md provides the survey’s citation, a brief changelog, and Markdown tables for contributors to add new entries. Three PNG assets live in src/ (logo.png, comparison.png, outline.png) and are referenced from the README. No source code, scripts, or data files are present, so the repo does not execute any processing or model inference.

How It Is Wired

There is no executable entry point, call graph, or external dependency.

  • README.md – the sole consumer of the image files; it renders the logo and comparison diagram in GitHub’s UI.
  • src/*.png – static assets referenced by relative paths in the README; they are never loaded by code.

Because the repository lacks any .py, .js, or build files, the wiring graph is empty. No functions, no I/O, and no side‑effects exist. Consequently, there is nothing that can be modified without adding new code.

How To Use It

  1. Clone the repository (the URL must be used verbatim):
   git clone https://github.com/moses-y/LatentCoT-Horizon
   cd LatentCoT-Horizon
  1. Open README.md in a Markdown viewer or on GitHub to see the survey overview and the two images.
  2. To extend the list of papers, edit the Markdown table described in the “Contributing” section and submit a pull request. No additional setup, environment variables, or build steps are required because the repo contains no executable code.

Real‑World Use

A research team maintaining a literature review can fork this repo, add their own entries to the Markdown table, and push the changes to a shared organization. The images can be used in presentations or documentation without any transformation step.

Code Health & Issues

  • Medium – No tests – repository-wide, tests folder absent.
  • Medium – No CI/CD – no .github/workflows, Dockerfile, or other pipeline definitions.
  • Medium – No LICENSE – root lacks a license file, leaving usage rights ambiguous.
  • Low – No lockfile – no requirements.txt, pyproject.toml, package-lock.json, etc., so dependency reproducibility is not applicable.
  • Low – Documentation limited to README – no separate design docs, API specs, or contribution guidelines beyond the brief Markdown block.

The Bottom Line

LatentCoT-Horizon is a lightweight, static collection of survey metadata and images; it serves as a convenient reference point but offers no executable functionality. It is suitable for teams that only need a shared markdown bibliography and visual assets, but anyone expecting runnable code, tests, or CI will need to build those layers themselves.
