SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Automatically iterates on a compiled academic paper to improve quality through structured reviews, fixes, and recompile cycles, boosting clarity and rigor.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • End-to-end two-round improvement loop using GPT-5.4 xhigh, with optional human checkpoint
  • State-preserving recovery via PAPER_IMPROVEMENT_STATE.json for crash-safe progress
  • Generates updated PDFs and a detailed improvement log in PAPER_IMPROVEMENT_LOG.md
  • Works after the standard paper-writing workflow to polish the final submission-ready document

Quick Start

Run the auto-paper-improvement-loop on your compiled paper to start two rounds of review-and-fix.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate academic paper improvement with AI review?

Automating academic paper improvement involves running a two-round iterative loop using AI to review and fix LaTeX documents. This Skill automatically iterates on a compiled paper, performing structured reviews and recompiling updated PDFs to boost clarity and rigor.

What do I need to run an automated LaTeX paper polish loop?

To run an automated LaTeX paper polish loop, you need a compiled paper directory containing paper/main.pdf and paper/sections/*.tex files. The Skill uses these inputs to execute two rounds of reviewer-guided improvements and output updated PDFs.

Can AI automatically iterate on a compiled LaTeX paper to fix issues?

Yes, AI can automatically iterate on a compiled LaTeX paper to fix issues. The workflow performs two rounds of reviewer-guided improvements using GPT-5.4 xhigh, generating updated PDFs like main_round1.pdf and main_round2.pdf, with an optional human checkpoint between rounds.

How does crash-safe progress recovery work for automated paper writing workflows?

Crash-safe progress recovery for automated paper writing works by persisting state to a PAPER_IMPROVEMENT_STATE.json file. This allows the AI review and fix loop to resume gracefully without losing iterative improvements if the process is interrupted.

What is the best way to track AI paper improvements in LaTeX?

The best way to track AI paper improvements in LaTeX is by generating a detailed improvement log. This Skill automatically outputs a PAPER_IMPROVEMENT_LOG.md file documenting every structured review and fix applied across the two rounds of iteration.

Are there limitations to using AI for automated LaTeX paper improvement?

A limitation of using AI for automated LaTeX paper improvement is its dependency on a pre-existing compiled paper structure with specific section files. It operates strictly as a post-writing polish loop and cannot generate the initial academic content from scratch.
