What problem does it solve?
Manually writing each section of a research paper from an outline is slow and repetitive, especially for long manuscripts with 5+ sections. This skill automates the first-draft generation of all unapproved sections in a single parallelized run, cutting hours of sequential writing work down to minutes.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Parallel map-reduce drafting: Dispatches a dedicated paper-writer agent per section in a single batch to draft all sections concurrently, reducing total wall-clock time for full manuscript expansion.
- Shared terminology sync: Passes an identical nomenclature payload to all parallel writers to ensure consistent use of project-specific jargon across all drafted sections.
- Automated drift lint: Scans all drafted sections for inconsistent jargon and generates a non-blocking terminology drift report to surface inconsistencies for easy user reconciliation.
- Use Case: A researcher with a completed paper outline and initialized paper.json state file can run this skill to generate first drafts of all unapproved manuscript sections, then refine each section individually with the iterate-revision skill.
Quick Start
Use the outline-expand skill to draft all unapproved research paper sections from your provided outline and paper.json state file.
