What problem does it solve? Starting an academic paper without a clear plan leads to rework and structural confusion. This Skill turns a vague paper idea into a confirmed writing plan through one-question-at-a-time dialogue before any content is written. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Conversational Requirements Gathering: Asks one question at a time about paper type, discipline, topic, research background, and methodology, offering recommended options for user confirmation rather than blank forms. - Automatic Structure Recommendation: Proposes standard chapter structures for theses, SCI papers, Chinese core journals, conference papers, and coursework based on the confirmed paper type, with templates for word counts and section content. - Project Scaffolding: After final user confirmation, creates plan/ and chapters/ directories with project-overview.md, outline.md, and progress tracking, then hands off to chapter writing. - Use Case: A graduate student needs to write a master's thesis in Chinese. The Skill walks them through confirming the topic, methods, and standard thesis structure, then scaffolds the project files so chapter writing can begin immediately. ## Quick Start Help me brainstorm and plan my master's thesis on machine learning applications in healthcare before writing any chapters.
