SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Turning research results into a defensible paper story is hard: pitches sprawl, contributions are not checkable, and venue details get invented. This Skill runs a structured interview that settles the pitch, problem, key idea, contributions, and venue, then records them in tracked files. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Dialogue-first story coaching: Interviews the user one question at a time, or drafts from imported idea docs and result digests under mates/, to settle pitch, problem, key idea, contributions, and venue rationale in notes/story.md. - Claim ledger seeding: Creates notes/claims.md with one proposed, falsifiable claim per contribution, giving downstream drafting and audit skills a ledger to work against. - Venue profile with confirmation discipline: Builds cycls/<cycle>/venue.yml only from user-confirmed values such as page limits and deadlines, never inventing dates, and activates the submission cycle for downstream skills. - Use Case: A researcher with experimental results imported from a STAR project runs the coach to shape a CVPR submission: it proposes a pitch grounded in the digests, seeds three claims, and records the confirmed deadline and page limit. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to run /stage-stry-coach to shape your paper's story and pitch from the imported results, then confirm each section as it is drafted.

FAQPage Schema
How do I turn research results into a paper pitch?

Run the story coach, which reads imported idea docs and result digests under mates/ and proposes a pitch and candidate contributions grounded in that evidence. It then interviews you one question at a time until pitch, problem, key idea, contributions, and venue are settled in notes/story.md.

What is a claim ledger in academic writing workflows?

A claim ledger is a table in notes/claims.md where each contribution becomes a falsifiable claim row with an ID, type, evidence path, and status. Downstream drafting, audit, and rebuttal skills state, verify, and defend these rows throughout the writing workflow.

Can the skill fill in venue deadlines automatically?

No. Every venue.yml value, including page limits and deadlines, must come from your answer or a CFP text you supply, and each is echoed back for explicit confirmation. Unconfirmed values stay blank rather than being invented.

Does the story coach work without imported evidence?

Yes, it interviews from zero when mates/ holds nothing, but it states plainly that the story is running ahead of its evidence and points you to the evidence curation skill. Claims without evidence are marked with an empty Evidence field.

How do I revise a finalized paper story?

Invoke the coach with a section key such as pitch, contributions, or venue to reopen exactly that part of a finalized story. This clears the finalized flag, and downstream effects on existing claims are named before any edit proceeds.
