SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

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

What problem does it solve?

Convert research notes, figures, and citations into a complete, compilable LaTeX paper while preventing broken builds and citation/bibliography errors through an incremental test-driven workflow.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Scaffold & Template: Create a standardized IMRaD project structure and copy a ready-to-use LaTeX template to jumpstart papers.
  • Citation Support: Convert OpenAlex search results into BibTeX entries and maintain a clean references.bib.
  • Incremental Compilation & Verification: Run pdflatex + bibtex and a 12-check verification suite after every section to keep the project in a green state.
  • Figure & Reproducibility Guidance: Guidance and scripts for producing high-quality figures and reproducible plotting code.
  • Use Case: Ideal for researchers who need a disciplined, reproducible way to write, verify, and produce submission-ready PDFs for academic venues.

Quick Start

Scaffold a new paper project with slug my-paper, populate sections, run the compile script, and iterate until the verify suite reports all checks passed.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a compilable LaTeX scientific paper from structured section inputs?

To generate a compilable LaTeX scientific paper, this pipeline processes structured section inputs and runs incremental pdflatex plus bibtex compilations to produce a verified, submission-ready PDF.

What is test-driven compilation in scientific writing and how does it prevent broken LaTeX builds?

Test-driven compilation in scientific writing runs a 12-check verification suite after every section to catch citation and bibliography errors incrementally, ensuring your LaTeX project remains in a continuously green, compilable state.

Can I convert OpenAlex search results into BibTeX entries for my references.bib file?

Yes, you can convert OpenAlex search results into BibTeX entries using the openalex_to_bibtex.py script, which automatically populates and maintains a clean references.bib file for your academic paper.

Do I need pdflatex and python3 installed to use this academic publishing workflow?

Yes, you need pdflatex, bibtex, and python3 installed locally, as these dependencies are strictly required to execute the compilation scripts, bibliography conversion, and verification suite.

What is the best way to scaffold an IMRaD LaTeX project structure for academic publishing?

The best way to scaffold an IMRaD LaTeX project structure is to use the built-in template generator, which copies a ready-to-use standardized project layout to jumpstart your scientific writing and verification workflow.

Why does my LaTeX paper compilation fail after adding citations and figures incrementally?

LaTeX paper compilation often fails after incremental additions due to broken bibliography links or missing figures, which this pipeline prevents by enforcing per-section test-driven compilation and a strict 12-check verification suite.
