SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Writing a rigorous academic paper involves many disconnected steps — literature research, drafting, citation verification, peer review, revision, and formatting — and errors like hallucinated citations or unverified claims can slip through when these steps are done ad hoc. This Skill coordinates the entire pipeline as a single auditable workflow with mandatory checkpoints and integrity gates. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Ten-stage orchestration: Coordinates research, writing, integrity verification, two-stage peer review, revision, final integrity check, formatting, and process documentation by dispatching the deep-research, academic-paper, and academic-paper-reviewer skills. - Mandatory integrity gates: Runs coverage-bounded citation, claim, and data verification plus a 7-mode AI research failure checklist at Stage 2.5 and Stage 4.5, blocking advancement until PASS or a recorded user decision. - Adaptive checkpoints and state tracking: Requires user confirmation after every stage, maintains a Material Passport for cross-session resume, and produces an auditable process record PDF. - Use Case: A researcher starting from a topic idea says they want a full paper workflow; the pipeline runs research, drafting, verification, five-reviewer peer review, revision, and finalization, pausing at each checkpoint for confirmation. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to run the full academic pipeline on your research topic, for example by saying you want to write a research paper on the impact of AI on higher education quality assurance.

Frequently Asked Questions about academic-pipeline

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run a full research-to-paper workflow with AI?

Invoke the academic-pipeline skill with your research topic, and it orchestrates ten stages from literature research through drafting, integrity checks, peer review, revision, and final formatting. Each stage ends with a user confirmation checkpoint before proceeding.

Can I enter the academic pipeline with an existing paper draft?

Yes, the orchestrator detects mid-entry points based on your materials. An existing draft starts at the Stage 2.5 integrity check, reviewer comments start at Stage 4 revision, and a final draft can start at Stage 5 formatting.

How does the pipeline detect hallucinated citations?

Stages 2.5 and 4.5 run an integrity verification agent with a 7-mode AI research failure checklist covering hallucinated citations, fabricated results, and methodology fabrication. Any SUSPECTED mode blocks the pipeline until the user acknowledges or resolves it.

Can I resume the academic pipeline in a new session?

Yes, set ARS_PASSPORT_RESET=1 to make checkpoints emit reset boundaries, then use resume_from_passport=<hash> in a fresh session. The orchestrator loads the Material Passport ledger and continues from the recorded stage.

When should I use a single skill instead of the full pipeline?

Use deep-research alone for literature searches, academic-paper alone for writing without a research phase, or academic-paper-reviewer alone for reviewing a paper. The pipeline is opt-in and intended only for multi-stage end-to-end workflows.

What output formats does the finalization stage support?

Stage 5 produces Markdown by default, DOCX via Pandoc when available, LaTeX after user confirmation, and PDF via tectonic. Stage 6 additionally generates a bilingual process record PDF documenting the human-AI collaboration history.
