paper-review

Read the full manuscript first, then sweep for errors by recomputing every number and checking internal consistency. Filter suggestions by asking whether a competent editor would accept the paper without each one, then write location-led comments pairing each diagnosis with a fix.

Check the rebuttal against the previous review point by point and state for each whether it was actually addressed. A brief courtesy opening or closing is allowed on revision rounds, but it must never substitute for a verdict.

Yes, the Skill supports Brazilian Portuguese for venues like ANPET using an impersonal third-person register, not translated English. It uses constructions like "Recomenda-se ajustar" and verdicts such as Recomendado or Não recomendado.

The sweep covers recomputed arithmetic and statistics, internal consistency, ML train/test leakage, spatial autocorrelation and MAUP, causal identification, reproducibility, and ethics. Errors are admitted unconditionally regardless of severity, including typos.

Cut any suggestion a competent editor would let the paper keep, such as stock comments, style preferences, or citation requests that change no argument. A useful test is whether the comment could have been written before reading the paper.

This Skill is only for refereeing someone else's manuscript. Reviewing your own draft belongs to paper-self-review, responding to reviewers belongs to review-response, and code review is out of scope entirely.
