  • Paper-type-aware structure recommendation: Automatically recommends a standard chapter structure based on your confirmed paper type, then lets you confirm or fine-tune it.
  • Hard-gated workflow for writing: Prevents premature chapter creation or drafting until you explicitly confirm all key decisions, reducing rework.
