SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the rigorous review of LaTeX documents, identifying and flagging hardcoded numbers and citation inconsistencies to maintain academic integrity and reproducibility.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Hardcoded Number Detection: Scans .tex files for numbers that should be dynamically generated macros.
  • Citation Consistency Check: Verifies that all cited references are correctly formatted and present.
  • Compilation Verification: Ensures the LaTeX document compiles without errors.
  • Auto-fixing: Attempts to automatically replace hardcoded numbers with dynamic macros when the source is unambiguous.
  • Use Case: After writing a research paper in LaTeX, run this skill to catch any accidental hardcoded results or citation errors before submission.

Quick Start

Run the review-tex skill to perform a full LaTeX review on all .tex files in the latex directory.

FAQPage Schema
How do I check my LaTeX manuscript for hardcoded numbers before submission?

To check a LaTeX manuscript for hardcoded numbers, scan .tex files to detect numerical values that should be dynamically generated macros. This process identifies static values and auto-fixes unambiguous cases to ensure research reproducibility.

What is citation consistency checking in academic writing?

Citation consistency checking in academic writing verifies that all cited references in a document are correctly formatted and present. It cross-references citations against generated macro definitions to detect formatting issues and maintain academic integrity.

How do I automatically replace hardcoded numbers with dynamic macros in LaTeX?

You can automatically replace hardcoded numbers with dynamic macros by running an automated LaTeX review protocol. This protocol scans .tex files, identifies unambiguous hardcoded numerical sources, and attempts to auto-fix them using generated macro definitions from a code pipeline.

Can I review LaTeX slides for citation errors and compilation issues?

Yes, you can review LaTeX slides for citation errors and compilation issues by executing a comprehensive review protocol. This protocol scans slide documents, verifies citation consistency, ensures the LaTeX document compiles without errors, and reports findings with severity levels.

Do I need generated macro definitions from a code pipeline to review LaTeX documents?

Yes, you need generated macro definitions from a code pipeline to review LaTeX documents effectively. The review protocol requires cross-referencing scanned .tex files against these macro definitions to identify hardcoded numbers and verify citation consistency accurately.

What are the limitations of automated LaTeX review protocols for manuscripts?

The limitation of automated LaTeX review protocols is that auto-fixing hardcoded numbers is restricted to cases where the source is unambiguous. Complex or ambiguous static values require manual intervention, and the protocol depends on pre-generated macro definitions from an external code pipeline.
