SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Validates cross-references in Quarto and LaTeX documents, ensures terminology consistency, tracks acronyms, and flags prose quality issues to prevent broken references and inconsistent writing.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Cross-reference validation for figures, tables, equations, and sections across multi-file projects, including Quarto chunks and LaTeX environments.
  • Terminology and acronym quality checks to enforce consistent usage and first-use definitions.
  • Prose quality analysis to flag long sentences, hedging density, and common typographical or style issues in academic manuscripts.
  • Use Case: You have a large manuscript with many fig- and tbl- references spread across .qmd and .tex files; this tool detects broken references and highlights areas for editing.

Quick Start

Run the proof-checker against your Quarto or LaTeX project to generate a comprehensive cross-reference and style report.
