What problem does it solve?
This Skill provides rigorous manuscript reviews that emulate top-tier referees, identifying logical gaps, methodological weaknesses, and presentation flaws to improve scholarly work.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Argument structure evaluation: assesses clarity of research question, motivation, logical flow, and whether conclusions are supported by evidence.
- Identification strategy and econometric critique: evaluates causal claims, assumptions, threats to identification, robustness checks, and appropriateness of estimators.
- Literature positioning and writing quality: checks coverage, accurate characterization of prior work, consistent notation, and clarity.
- Referee objections generation and reporting: produces 3-5 tough questions a referee would raise and formats a structured report.
- Output and formatting: saves the final review to quality_reports/paper_review_[sanitized_name].md with a clear, publishable structure.
Quick Start
Submit a manuscript file path (tex/pdf/qmd) or a filename under master_supporting_docs, and the skill will generate a structured referee-ready review.
