SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires pdflatex, bibtex, python3, and includes scripts (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Writing publication-quality scientific papers in LaTeX is notoriously tedious and error-prone, requiring manual management of citations, section formatting, compilation, and verification that often leads to broken documents and delayed submissions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • TDD-driven writing workflow: Compiles and verifies every section before moving to the next, ensuring the paper never enters a broken state.
  • Automated citation management: Converts OpenAlex API search results to formatted BibTeX entries, with support for manual citations of books, reports, and web pages.
  • Venue-ready templates: Pre-built LaTeX templates for arXiv, IEEE, ACM, and Springer LNCS with correct document classes and package configurations out of the box.
  • Comprehensive verification suite: 12-point checks for LaTeX errors, undefined references, missing figures, and abstract word count to meet standard submission requirements.

Use Case

A researcher with completed experiment results, data, and figures can use this skill to generate a fully formatted, verified LaTeX paper for conference or arXiv submission without manual LaTeX troubleshooting or formatting work.

Quick Start

Use the paper-creator skill to write a full scientific LaTeX paper on your research topic, including structured IMRaD sections, formatted citations, and a compiled verified PDF ready for submission.

Frequently Asked Questions about paper-creator

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate LaTeX paper compilation and prevent broken document states?

Automated LaTeX paper compilation uses a test-driven development workflow to compile and verify each section sequentially, preventing broken document states through continuous verification before proceeding to the next section.

How does automated citation management from OpenAlex to BibTeX work?

Automated citation management converts OpenAlex API search results directly into formatted BibTeX entries, while also supporting manual citations for books, reports, and web pages to streamline reference formatting.

Do I need pdflatex and python3 installed locally to write and compile scientific papers?

Yes, writing and compiling scientific papers end-to-end requires pdflatex, bibtex, and python3 installed locally to execute the test-driven compilation workflow and generate verified PDFs.

Can I use pre-built LaTeX templates for arXiv, IEEE, ACM, and Springer LNCS submissions?

Yes, pre-built LaTeX templates for arXiv, IEEE, ACM, and Springer LNCS provide correct document classes and package configurations out of the box for venue-ready scientific paper submissions.

What is the best way to verify a LaTeX paper meets standard peer-reviewed submission requirements?

The best way to verify LaTeX papers for submission is running a comprehensive 12-point verification suite checking for LaTeX errors, undefined references, missing figures, and abstract word count to meet standard requirements.

What are the limitations of test-driven LaTeX writing for academic research papers?

Test-driven LaTeX writing for academic research papers is limited to structured IMRaD sections and requires specific dependencies like pdflatex and bibtex, focusing on formatting and compilation rather than generating novel experimental data.
