Use when reviewing or editing research manuscripts, journal articles, reviews, or perspectives. Invoke when user mentions manuscript, paper draft, article, research writing, journal submission, reviewer feedback, or needs to improve scientific writing clarity, structure, or argumentation in their manuscript.
Systematic pre-publication manuscript audit producing a structured refactoring report with section-level diagnostics, citation hygiene analysis, and submission-readiness assessment. Use this skill whenever the user uploads a manuscript, paper, thesis chapter, journal submission, or conference paper and asks for review, feedback, editing, refactoring, pre-submission check, proofreading, or quality audit. Also trigger when the user says "review my paper", "check before submission", "is this ready to submit", "pre-pub checklist", "manuscript review", "refactor my paper", or asks about citation consistency, argument coherence, or formatting compliance. Covers partial requests like "check my references" or "does the abstract work" — the full diagnostic surfaces issues across all facets even when only one was asked about.
Critical analysis of research papers, academic manuscripts, preprints, and technical studies — evaluating methodology, claims-evidence alignment, contribution significance, and intellectual honesty. Produces coherent analytical responses (not checklists) that distinguish genuine weaknesses from standard field limitations. Governs intellectual posture: collegial reader, not adversarial reviewer. Triggers on: "critique this paper", "review this research", "what do you think of this paper", "analyze this study", "evaluate the methodology", "is this paper sound", "assess this research", "strengths and weaknesses of this paper", "does the evidence support the claims". Use this skill when the user provides a research paper, preprint, or technical study and asks for critical evaluation of its scientific merit, methodology, or contribution — not formatting, citation hygiene, or submission readiness (use manuscript-review for those).
Use this skill for "review this paper", "review this manuscript", "peer review", "review my paper", "critique this manuscript", "review this submission", "give me feedback on my paper", "check my methods", "review my statistics", "review as a peer reviewer", "evaluate this manuscript", "review this PDF", or mentions manuscript review, peer review, paper critique, or methodological review.
Mechanize Pattern 15 — the seven-pass adversarial review protocol for academic manuscripts. Spawns 7 forked subagents in parallel (abstract, intro, methods, results, robustness, prose, citations), then synthesizes a prioritized revision checklist. Use for submission-ready or R&R-stage papers where single-pass review isn't enough.
